Emmerdale's Laura Norton looks incredible at the moment. Here's everything you need to know about her amazing weight loss, those rumours about Mark Jordan and more...
Laura Norton on Emmerdale
Laura Norton is better known to Emmerdale fans as Kerry Wyatt. She joined the show in 2012 as the estranged mother of Amy Wyatt (Chelsea Halfpenny).
At the time, she described her character to The Sun as: "Totally out of control.”
“[She] and can be a madwoman, especially when she’s drunk. But she is also vulnerable and tries her best to get things right. Some of the scenes I’ve filmed are so emotional that I was genuinely in tears. The challenge will be to show the audience that there are two sides to her.”
How old is Laura?
Laura Norton was born in Newcastle on the 19th of June, 1983. That makes her a Gemini! Yup, for the maths whizz’ out there you may have already figured this one out, but that makes Laura 36 years old.

1 of 13Joe Tate
Joe Tate met a grisly end in October when he was shot dead by Graham Foster. Nice. Actor Ned Porteous is swapping the rolling hills of the Dales for the Hollywood hills!
2 of 13Matty Barton
Hannah Barton left Emmerdale for London a few years ago. After sex reassignment surgery, he returns to the village as a man called Matty - the show's first transgender character. It's a groundbreaking, progressive storyline for the show, so how will mum Moira Barton react?
3 of 13Kim Tate
Super villain Kim Tate is back for a havoc-wreaking week and she's badder than ever before. Yaaaas!
4 of 13Leyla Harding
Leyla left for Greece without saying bye in January, but she's due back in the summer (actress Roxy Shahidi took maternity leave). She returned on October acting very shifty...
5 of 13Lachlan White
Teenage murderer Lachlan White brutally killed Gerry Roberts. The folk behind Emmerdale have promised that he will get his comeuppance, one way or another...
6 of 13Lisa Dingle
Ahh, lovely Lisa left the farm for Scotland in May after telling Zac that she loved him more than she's loved anyone else in the world. Aww. Come back, Lisa.
7 of 13Sandy Thomas
Cuddly Sandy Thomas left the Dales for Australia in February - lucky so and so. But we think the 90 year old actor, Freddie Jones, probably deserves to put his feet up down under.
8 of 13Priya Sharma
After a very testing time with social services, pretty Priya Sharma is said to be leaving the show this year.
9 of 13Gerry Roberts
Poor Gerry was at the receiving end of Lachlan's murderous hands in May (he finished him off with a rock - nice).
10 of 13Mandy Dingle
Could Emmerdale favourite Mandy Dingle be returning to the village? Actress Lisa Riley has hinted that the rumours might be true. That would really shake things up in the Woolly.
11 of 13Ross Barton
Ross has had it pretty tough since being involved in an acid attack earlier in the year. There are rumours that he'll be exiting the show later, but we don't know why or how.
12 of 13Rebecca White
January saw a BIG crash in the village (caused by that menace, Lachlan White), which meant the end for two White family members. First up: Lachlan's mum, Rebecca White.

Next, Lachlan's grandad Lawrence.

Laura Norton’s weight loss
Since first joining Emmerdale in 2012, Laura has lost a whopping three stone! She says she feels much healthier without the extra pounds. Much of the weight loss came from cutting out just one thing that’s very unhealthy….
What was Laura Norton’s diet?
“I stopped drinking coke. I was completely addicted to it. I was waking up in the middle of the night, craving coke,” she told What’s On TV. “Once I stopped, I lost a stone very quickly.”
For those who don’t know, drinking just one can of coke per day amounts to 140 calories and 39 grams of sugar.
That’s 10 teaspoons of sugar in just one drink - a whopping four teaspoons more than the recommended daily sugar allowance for women!
Diet coke, meanwhile, is no better - despite the fact it contains zero sugar.
She also found that not eating out at restaurants as much, and exercising more made a big difference, too.
“Moving out of Leeds meant I wasn't eating out as much. I also did some work with a personal trainer for a few months. I have lost 3 stone since I started the show and it's all down to having a healthier lifestyle."
Has Laura Norton written any books?
Laura Norton, the actress, hasn’t written any books - yet. But there is someone else in this world with the same name who’s written many in Spanish.

Not quite, but she did perform alongside her co-stars Gemma Atkinson, Michelle Hardwick at a fundraising event in York to raise money for cancer research, under the name Emmerdolls.

Are Laura Norton and Mark Jordan dating?
Yes! And they're cute af.
Mark Jordan has been Laura’s cast mate on Emmerdale since he joined in 2014, and the two have reportedly been dating ever since.
Mark has two children, Joseph and Poppy, from his marriage with actress Siobhan Finneran.
Is Laura Norton married?
She's engaged to her partner Mark. The stars confirmed their engagement on Twitter in January - and a very happy new year it was!
One thing’s for sure, if and when Laura Norton does get married, she certainly won’t be wearing the wedding dress she was forced to wear when tying the knot on Emmerdale.
"This dress - think Katie Price when she got married to Peter Andre and then a lot more. That's what the design was based on. I've seen nothing like it in my life," she told the Sun.
"It's white and pink, there are as many diamantés and sequins as you can imagine and I'm wearing so much false tan it's unnatural… There are bits of see-through material everywhere so you can see her body - there's a lot of flesh on show,” she added.
Yeah, we wouldn’t want to wear that on our wedding day, either.
