They had told colleagues about their budding relationship and were snapped holding hands at the soap's summer party in the city’s Victoria Warehouse.
A telly source explained at the time: “Both Joe and Sally had been single for a while and just met at the right time in their lives.
“Sally thinks Joe is a funny and caring guy and he’s really fallen for her, too. They’ve now told their castmates and everyone thinks it’s a match made in heaven.”
They were due to wed last year but the pandemic torpedoed plans.
The pair could not have forseen the restrictions that were to come with more than a year of lockdowns and strict limits of mass gatherings.
Speaking on Loose Women Sally explained they they decided to "defer" their big day for a year instead.
She explained: "I’m not quite sure where we’re gonna be in December, the way things have been dealt with so I didn’t want to risk arranging a wedding.
"We want to have a party - so if there’s 15 people allowed to come, it’s not great really.
"So we thought that it was best if we defer it for a year, and hopefully get the wedding that we want."
