Viewers know the character is married to husband Caleb (William Ash).

But in real life, Beth is in a relationship with soap legend and Emmerdale alum Ian Kelsey.

Ian, 58, played Dave Glover from 1994 to 1996, which saw his character romantically involved with Kim Tate (Claire King).

However, Dave was later killed off while rescuing baby Jamie Tate from a fire.

Taking to Instagram, Beth shared a sweet snap while marking the couple’s anniversary.

She penned in the caption: “4 years. Admittedly he doesn’t look too over the moon about it here.

“(Let’s be honest, it actually looks like he’s being held captive. Blink twice, Melania.)

“But then I never was too good with the super keen.”

Beth’s on-screen daughter Georgia Jay – who plays Steph – commented: “Aw love you guys.”

A fan wrote: “Great pairing. Congrats on your 4year anniversary.”
