ITV Emmerdale's Katie Hill real age unveiled as co-star declares love

Emmerdale's Katie Hill was in a celebratory mood as she marked her birthday.

The soap star has played Sarah Sugden on the long-running ITV show since 2017. Katie took over the role from Sophia Amber Moore and is the fifth actress to play the character.

She has endured a rollercoaster time in the fictional Yorkshire village, which has included a battle with Falconi anaemia. Away from the soap, Katie regularly keeps fans updated with her exciting life as she forges a career in showbiz.

She took to Instagram to reveal it was her birthday yesterday. However, Katie was on set filming on her special day so she marked the occasion by ordering in lunch from Wagamama.

Katie shares a strong bond away from the screen with her co-star, Daisy Campbell, who plays Amelia Spencer. Daisy took to Instagram to send Katie a special message as she shared a snap of the two alongside fellow soap star, Rosie Bentham.

She said: "Happy 20th, I love you so much."

The two often exchange messages on social media as Daisy previously praised Katie's musical talent. The 20-year-old shared a clip on social media last year performing a rendition of Creep by Radiohead.

Daisy heaped praise on the performance as she said: "The best." Katie shot back: "Love you."
