EastEnders actress Lorraine Stanley, who stars as loveable matriarch Karen Taylor, has announced her engagement to her long-term partner Mark Perez.

The BBC soap star shared the happy news on Instagram with a sweet picture of herself with Mark. She captioned the post: "Love you baby!! #Engaged," with a host of emojis including a peace sign, heart and diamond ring.

In the photo, Lorraine could be seen with her arms wrapped around her fiancé as she sported a white floaty dress and a floral head piece.

The actress also shared a collage of images to her Instagram documenting her life with her now-fiancé. Lorraine's post included a picture which appears to tease the romantic proposal with the EastEnders star down on one knee placing what looks like a ring on her partner's finger.

Other snaps include the couple with daughter Nancy, on holiday and with loved ones.

Meanwhile, the EastEnders star recently shared an insight into her personal life during an appearance on ITV's Lorraine.

The BBC soap actress told presenter Lorraine Kelly she's moved out of London since joining the soap and has been able to provide a better life for her daughter Nancy.

She shared: "I have moved. I now live in Hertfordshire. It has a lot of things. I have a little girl, Nancy. She'll have fresher air, better schools, less crime in general. It was a big move and I feel great, it is lovely there."

She also opened up on her recent weight loss as she revealed she lost almost a stone in six weeks after cutting out crisps and chocolate.

She said: "I've lost 12 lbs in six weeks, thank you. My mate Louisa is my fitness guru, I've got her to thank for it. She talks about nutrition.I've eaten a lot of boiled eggs, fish, chicken, no carbs. No crisps and chocolate. I'm enjoying it and I feel better for it."
