Former EastEnders star Cheryl Fergison has celebrated her 11 year wedding anniversary with her husband Yassine el Jamouni.
Cheryl, 56, shared a heartfelt Instagram post about Yassine, 35, alongside a black and white photo of the couple smiling.
"It's our wedding Anniversary. 11 years of love," she wrote.
Fans of the soap actress were quick to congratulate her on her marriage lasting over a decade, with hundreds of comments wishing them a happy anniversary.
One of her 30.4k Instagram followers also sweetly commented that there are "many years left to come" and wished the happy couple the best.
Cheryl played the very iconic Heather Trott in long running BBC soap EastEnders from 2007 to 2012.
The couple met on the internet back in 2010 and Cheryl decided to travel to Morocco where Yassine lived and fell in love.
They tied the knot back in 2011, shortly before Cheryl left the soap.
The actress has not been shy in defending her relationship and proving that the couple are genuinely in love, she previously spoke to The Mirror about critics calling her husband a "gold digger".
"The world has become so cynical," she said.
"People think it’s got to be a con, it’s got to be a problem. But I say, ‘It hasn’t got to be anything. Just stop it!’"
She explains how it seems to be women always getting the backlash: "“It seems to be quite cool for the men, like Mick Jagger, to date younger."
Cheryl goes on to say that people don't seem to give "kudos to a woman dating someone younger" even though her and her husband Yassine have been together for over a decade.
However, she doesn't let people's comments affect her or her relationship, saying: 'I just feel sorry for them that they need to criticise our life."
Since leaving EastEnders the soap actress has been doing a lot of work in the theatre, performing to live audiences. She also has recently starred in comedian Catherine Tate's new prison comedy, Hard Cell, which is now streaming on Netflix.
