Sally and Joe celebrated their four year anniversary in June. Taking to Instagram, Sally shared a cosy photo of the engaged pair on what appeared to be a soggy woodland walk. She had her arms tightly wrapped around her man as she grinned for the camera in a khaki cap and matching coat as well as a pair of dark black shades. Joe, 51, meanwhile was in charge of taking the sweet photo and so placed one arm around his future wife as he posed in his raincoat with his hood up.
"Four years," Sally, who starred in Channel 4's Shameless before landing the role of Abi in 2017, captioned the snap to her thousands of followers alongside a string of yellow love hearts.

Taking to Instagram at the time, Sally shared a picture of her emerald green and gold ring while the pair celebrated with champagne.
She said: "So this happened... #yes" before following up the snap with another of them celebrating with the caption: "We've got each other." Joe also shared the news on Twitter with a sweary nod to what else is going on in the world at the time. He told his followers: "She said yes everyone, convid 19 can f**k off..." before noting his error and added: "‘Convid, covid, whuteva."
Speaking about the proposal, Sally previously told TV star Kate Thornton on her podcast White Wine Question Time : "It was while we were in lockdown and we were staying in the Dales with his sister, who has a lot of space, with, his kids. And he had just read a Benjamin Meyers book called The Gallows Pole, which Shane Meadows is making into a film right now.
"It's all about these coin forgers and he was banging on about this bloody book for weeks and weeks and weeks and I'm like: 'I'm glad you're enjoying that book, I won't need to read it because you've literally told me everything that happens in it!' And we were walking around this big field on this walk and he went: 'Kids, have a look in between the dry stone walling because you know, they used to put coins and precious things to hide them in the walls.
"'You look at that bit Jeanie, and Joseph you look at that thing, Sal why don't you get involved?' I'd had a few beers because you know, that's what we did in lockdown. So I'm having a look and there's this box. And I opened it. I'm like: 'No way.' And then there was another box inside. And I turned around and he was on one knee."
