EMMA co-stars Conor Swindells and Amber Anderson have tied the knot in a stunning Highlands ceremony - and they were officiated by Conor's on-screen dad Alistair Petrie.

Conor played Robert Martin in the movie, while Amber took on the role of Jane Fairfax in Emma.

However sparks flew after filming was wrapped up and they grew close during the coronavirus lockdown in 2020 - which has led them to where they are now as a married couple.

The Sex Education star got down on one knee during a trip to Botswana.

Conor and Amber said "I Do" at Boath House on the northern coast of Scotland in front of friends, family and their rescue dog Moose, who served as ring bearer.

“We were both living alone and relatively near each other, so we decided to bubble together.

"We got to really support each other through that. Lockdown meant we had time with each other that we wouldn’t have gotten if we’d both been away filming.

"Our official first date was literally about three months into our relationship when everything opened up again.

"I feel like we did everything backwards in a strange sort of way.”
