Hollyoaks stars Sophie Porley and Adam Woodward have split after two years together.
Sophie (who played Ellie Nightingale) and Adam (aka Brody Hudson) were together for two years but decided to call time on their relationship during the first lockdown.
The former Hollyoaks actress announced the news on Instagram during a Q&A when one of her followers asked if they were still together.
"We broke up earlier this year. Like lots of couples this year," she admitted on her Instagram Story.
The Hollyoaks stars started dating in October 2018 and last year they moved in together with Sophie writing on social media, "Moved into my new flat this weekend.
"We have no sofa, no bed, pretty much nothing else expect a few wooden chopping boards, vases, dried lavender sprigs and some plants."
