Hollyoaks’ Ruby O’Donnell and Nathaniel Dass have been showered with love as they celebrate a major milestone together.

Ruby, known for her role as nurse Peri Lomax since 2013, and her beau Nathaniel, who debuted as Dillon Ray in 2023, might not cross paths on screen often but offscreen their romance is blossoming since going Instagram official last year.

Love clearly is in the air for the pair as Ruby took to her Instagram on Tuesday (May 6) to commemorate a whole year of romance with Nathaniel.

She delighted fans by posting a quartet of adorable pictures, alongside the caption: “1 year with u” capped off with a pink heart pierced by a blue arrow.

Co-star Nadine Mulkerrin commented: “Cutiessss” followed by a string of red hearts, while ex-Corrie actress Kimberly Hart-Simpson chimed in with “Perfect” and a single red heart.

Danny Beard, of Celebrity Big Brother fame, kept it simple, opting for a lone heart emoji.

Fans joined in on the love fest, with one sharing: “U two are just so perfect together. U deserve the world both of u, so adorable.”, reports the Manchester Evening News.

Another added: “happy anniversary my faves.” and called them “You two are so adorable, Happy 1 year.”

A fourth Instagram user gushed: “Aww my two favourite people there just so amazing.”

On Nathaniel’s special day in August, Ruby posted a heartfelt birthday tribute, attaching an array of cute couple photos, and writing: “Happy birthday my love, happiest with you.”

Nadine, who plays Cleo McQueen, was quick to tease in the comments, gushing: “You twwwooo stop it! ! I smell more Hollyoaks’s babies in the future” followed by a laughing emoji, hinting at her own relationship with co-star hubby Rory Douglas-Speed, who plays Joel Dexter.
