In the photo Lorraine - who plays Karen Taylor in EastEnders - could be seen beaming at Mark as she posed with her arm around him.

The star was dressed for the moment in a white dress with a sparkly tiara.

Lorraine simply captioned her photo: "Love you baby #Engaged." She added a series of emojis including a love heart and an engagement ring.

She and Mark have been together for nine years and last year she shared photos of them celebrating their eighth anniversary.

Lorraine regularly leaves fans speechless when looking worlds away from gobby Walford resident Karen in real life.

She was recently joined by her on screen sons - Danny Walters and Zack Morris - to celebrate her birthday.

And last week Lorraine looked unrecognisable in a throwback with A-list actor Tom Hardy, from their time together on the set of movie Legend.
