Emmerdale's Lisa Riley in stitches as she matches Good Morning Britain presenter

Emmerdale actress Lisa Riley has been left in stitches after spotting a popular ITV presenter's choice of dress on Wednesday.

The 46-year-old, known for portraying Mandy Dingle on the ITV soap, shared a picture on social media to show she and Good Morning Britain host Susanna Reid were wearing nearly identical dresses to work. Both woman can be seen in a beautiful leopard print dress but while Lisa's is black, with blue dots, the colours on Susanna's dress are reversed.

Posting the snaps on Instagram and Twitter, the soap actress wrote: ""LAUGHING. Today I came to work @itv @emmerdale noticed on tv…..it seems @susannareid100 has dressed the EXACT same way as Mandy Dingle….I’m wearing the same dress for filming today."

Many fans found the coincidence hilarious but also pointed out that the dresses weren't quite the same.

One fan tagged optical retail chain Specsavers in the comments, while another jokingly asked: "Hi Lisa have you considered laser eye surgery."

Others gushed over Lisa's style. Foxy praised: "You look absolutely gorgeous."

Lauren commented: "You are looking great, Lisa." Cinders wrote: "Looking stunning as always."

And Jo Davies said: "That is funny! Have to say I prefer the black print on blue, as opposed to the blue print on black."

Presenter Susanna Reid did not comment on the coincidence but retweeted the post to her Twitter account.
