Danny Miller and Steph Jones have got engaged - and the couple are expecting their first child together.
Danny Miller
The 30-year-old actor - who plays Aaron Dingle in the ITV soap - popped the question to his significant other in St Lucia earlier this year, and just a month later the 29-year-old midwife fell pregnant despite the pair being told it wouldn't happen for them "naturally".
Danny said: "It was unbelievable because we’d been told it probably wasn’t going to happen for us naturally, so we just feel so incredibly lucky.
"We’re very humbled by it as we know not everyone is as lucky."
Steph - who is due in October - said: "It was a massive surprise because emotionally we’d been psyching ourselves up for IVF.
"It was meant to be. We got engaged at the beginning of January and found out we were expecting in February."
Danny was filming a big 'Emmerdale' barn explosion stunt so couldn't pick up the phone when Steph rang him numerous times to tell him she was pregnant.
But when he finally got through to her, he was "in complete shock" at the news and he burst into tears.
He said: "I rang Steph and she was laughing but crying and I just knew.
"With us being with the IVF consultant the day before, I was in complete shock. I started crying.
"It’s making me emotional to think about it now. I bought another pregnancy test on the way home, not that she had to prove it, but I just wanted that moment for us."
Danny was so nervous ahead of his St Lucia proposal he went to the toilet seven times during the meal, and Steph thought he might have a "urine infection".
Speaking in a joint interview with OK! magazine, he added: "Other than going to the toilet seven times I also thought I was going to be sick at one point. We’d paid a fortune for the meal and I couldn’t even eat it because I was that nervous."
