The happy couple wed in a lavish wedding ceremony at St Philip’s Church in Salford in July this year.

Sally and Joe, who began dating in August 2018, tied the knot, where Sally was christened two years ago after her original date was pushed back due to the pandemic.

She wore a pretty blue dress and Joe wore a matching suit as they kissed in front of a balloon structure while holding glasses of champagne.

Sally shared the picture on social media in July, writing alongside a yellow love heart: “We did it”.

Sally joined Coronation Street in 2017 and played former drug addict Abi, with the character being drawn into drama this year following the murder of her son Seb.

She met Joe on set, with the actor playing taxi driver Tim.

They live together in a village near Stockport and got engaged during the first lockdown last year, with Sally being the stepmother to Joe’s three children aged 25, 14 and 12.

Sally described Joe’s children as “beautiful,” adding that she feels really fortunate to have an extended family.

She said last year she was planning a Christmas wedding with Joe after postponing their original date due to Covid.

She told The Mirror: “I’m obsessed with Christmas, so Joe said, ‘What’s your favorite time, when would you like to do it?’ It had to be Christmas.

“We’re getting married in the late afternoon, so it will be dark and it will be lit by rows of Christmas trees and twinkling lights; I can barely wait for it.”

“We were supposed to be getting married this December but we put it off until next year because we didn’t know what the score would be in relation to Covid,” she explained.

“We figured it was better to be safe than sorry because I would have hated to have arranged it and then not be able to get it right.”

She was previously known for playing former heroin addict and prostitute Kelly Maguire on Shameless from 2009 to 2013.

She admits she would love to appear in a Christmas movie alongside Coronation Street in the years to come.
