Former Coronation Street star Faye Brookes has been branded the “most beautiful bride” after teasing fans by trying on different wedding dresses.
The Dancing On Ice star, 35, got engaged to actor Iwan Lewis in January after only three months of dating.
The pair had been friends for 15 years after meeting each other in 2011 while working together on a stage production of Legally Blonde, where they portrayed each other's love interests in the roles of Elle and Emmett.
They even lived together at one stage as flatmates, before realising they were more than just friends and getting engaged during a romantic New Year's proposal.
And with the pair now preparing to tie the knot by the end of the summer in the Cotswolds, Faye has teased what wedding dress she may have picked.
The soap star looked stunning as she posed in three different white dresses in a series of snaps with a cartoon effect filter.
Her try-on session included a figure-hugging gown with a dramatic floral train.
Fans were quick to flood her comments section with compliments, as one person wrote: “You’re going to make the most beautiful bride.”
While another wrote: “Oh Faye, you look breathtaking wow!”
While a third gushed: “You are going to be the most stunning bride.”
It comes as Faye described how she and Iwan’s friendship turned to romance, telling OK!:"On day one of rehearsals of Legally Blonde, we’d known each other for a few years by now.
"He came up to me and went, ‘By the end of this tour, we’re going to be together.’ I was like, ‘Mate, no, we’re not.'"
“Emmett [was] the nerd who gets the girl in the end,” Iwan, 34, said. “Sometimes art imitates life. There’s always been chemistry, but we’ve never gone there until now. It’s been written in the stars from the beginning. I’ve never been able to play it cool and I let Faye know on day one."
Years later when Iwan found out the Kate Connor actress was single, he wasted no time in asking her out, adding: “Even in Legally, she wasn’t single, so there was a window of opportunity and I thought, ‘That’s it. I’m going for it.'"
The loved-up duo have already booked their church with the Cotswold wedding just around the corner.
“I think on January 2nd she started planning the wedding," said Iwan. "We’ve already got the church booked, the piece of land with a marquee, we’ve got bands booked, we’ve got string quartets booked. We’ve got the lot sorted.”
