Mark and Laura met on the set of the ITV soap while playing Daz Spencer and Kerry Wyatt respectively.
They announced that they were engaged in 2018 following which Laura explained during a chat with the Loose Women panel: ‘When we first told each other we liked each other we just went, “Shall we just leave it? Shall we just stay as friends? It’s probably best”.’
Mark’s birthday message came after the couple revealed the heartbreaking news of their children’s illness.
In February of this year, they explained that both of their babies suffered from a rare condition named Usher syndrome – that affected both hearing and vision.
They decided to share the diagnosis during an interview with Hello! Magazine and Mark said: ‘We’ve agonised about doing this before we’ve even told our children about their condition… we’re going to write them a letter to explain why we did this and show then when they’re old enough to understand.’
