Emmerdale’s Beth Cordingly penned the sweetest message to partner Ian Kelsey, who previously played Dave Glover on the ITV soap.
The actress, who joined the show as Ruby Fox-Miligan this year, has been in a relationship with Ian for three years and said that the former soap star was ‘really supportive’ when she landed the role.
In her latest Instagram post, the 47-year-old shared a FaceTime snapshot of the couple.
‘I love you on tour. I love you at home. I love you away. I love you here.
You are the stuff dreams are made of. Thank god I found you. #stillcantbelieveyourereal,’ she wrote.
‘(I know this is 🤢 . Soz, dudes. I shout this s**t from the rooftops nowadays and – if it backfires on me – SO BE IT, I won’t be ashamed. I had a good time on the way. I’m done with being quiet and careful. I don’t care. #lifeistooshort)
‘It’s taken me 47 years to get here. And some amazing people in my life with everyday a school day. Stay open. Own your mistakes. WE ALL MAKE THEM. I MAKE HUNDREDS EVERY DAY. Proper CRINGE ONES. So. LEARN. Life IS a marathon not a sprint. Seatbelt on. There will be time.’
She concluded: ‘Thought for the day: The good ones do exist. Keep your eyes open. And when you find them – it’s terrifying, I KNOW. But be brave and reach out your hand and don’t let go. #trustyouareenough#youareworthy#loveyourself please.
‘@iankelseyofficial I love you. Thank you for being amazing.’
Beth made her Emmerdale debut at the start of 2024, with Ruby being introduced as the mystery woman who Caleb Miligan, her ex-husband, was caught with during a passionate moment with her.
Soap superfans may recognise Beth from her role as Debbie, a cellmate of Shirley Carter’s (Linda Henry) in EastEnders back in 2017.
Her biggest role, however, is undoubtedly as PC Kerry Young in The Bill.
Kerry’s time at Sun Hill Station ended in tragedy in 2004, when she was shot outside the station.
Ian, meanwhile, portrayed Dave Glover, a former flame of Kim Tate’s, in Emmerdale, which is largely regarded as one of soap’s most well-known affairs.
The story ended in tragedy, however, when Dave met his demise in 1997 after three years on the show, with the character perishing in a fire.
Back in March of 2024, Beth Cordingly spoke about the advice partner Ian gave her before she arrived in the Dales.
‘He told me not to bump into the furniture, which I do regularly!’, she told.
