Her Emmerdale co-stars were also quick to comment, with Eden Taylor-Draper (Belle Dingle) adding three orange heart emojis, saying: ‘beautiful’

Tom Lister, who played Carl King on the long-running serial drama, posted three red hearts.

Congratulations, Sophie!

Sophie is best known for her work on Emmerdale as Holly Barton, a role she portrayed between 2009 and 2012, before returning for a short stint in 2016.

Holly battled drug addiction throughout her time in the village, and the character died in tragic scenes, when mum Moira (Natalie J Robb) found her in bed, and was unable to wake her up.

It was a story development that had not been announced prior to airing.
