Sally has previously opened up about falling for her co-star on set and admitted, "We clicked slowly.
"We were friends for a while but started sharing puddings and that's when I thought something was on the boil."
During their GMB interview, Sally went on to say that she's 'glad' they're not in lots of scenes together because, "Johnny is a bit of a joker so he can put you off his stride."
And although they work together and live together, Joe admitted that they try to keep their working life and personal life separate.
"We tend to let each other get on with it, if there's a lot of lines in the script we might help each other, but you need to leave work at work," he explained.
Speculation around the pair first began in August 2018 and in November 2019 they moved in together.
