Rita Simons is officially engaged to her partner of five years, sharing the joyous news with an adorable smiling selfie.
The EastEnders star has been in a relationship with her now-fiancé Ben Harlow since 2020, after meeting him during a stage production of Legally Blonde The Musical.
‘….so this happened! 💍💍 🤗,’ she coolly captioned an Instagram post, showcasing a stunning ring on her finger.
One photo featured the couple laughing together, with Ben’s hand resting on Rita’s shoulder while holding hers, providing a clear view of the impressive rock. The solitaire ring was also on display in a second photo, with the pair still beaming for the camera.
Rita, who portrayed Roxy Mitchell in the beloved BBC soap, met Ben while playing Paulette Bonafonte in the musical.
