Corrie: Kate Connor confronts Rana Nazir at her wedding
Bhavna Limbachia, who plays the role of Rana Habeeb in the ITV soap, is thought to have married her beau during a private ceremony in Cheshire last weekend.
According to The Sun, the Coronation Street actress was joined by a handful of her co-stars.
Some of the Weatherfield cast who were thought to have attended her big day include Julia Goulding (who plays Shona Ramsey) and Lucy Fallon (Bethany Platt).
Bhavna, 34, has kept the identity of her other half under wraps in the past.
Lucy, 21, took to Instagram this weekend to share a stunning snap of her and her boyfriend Tom Leech.
The pair put on a very glamorous display as they posed beside a lake in the countryside.
The actress donned a vibrant yellow dress for the occasion - as well as a black Gucci belt and matching Yves Saint Laurent bag.
Meanwhile, the hunk looked very dapper as he stepped out in a dark blue suit, white shirt, and maroon tie.
The star didn’t reveal where they were or what the reason for their smart aesthetic was, but instead captioned the photo: “The best little chick in the world.”
Express.co.uk has contacted a representative for Bhavna Limbachia asking for comment.
Bhavna has taken on a leading role in the ITV soap in recent months, after her character struck up a love affair with Kate Connor (played by Faye Brookes).
During the dramatic storyline, Rana, who is married to Zeedan Nazir (Qasim Akhtar), told her spouse about their secret romance - before leaving her husband in order to be with Kate.
The plot saw the star become the first cast member to play a gay Muslim character in Coronation Street.
The actress, who also stars in the BBC sitcom Citizen Khan, often takes to Instagram to share captures of her spending time with her ITV co-stars with her 80,600 followers.
Yesterday, Bhavna appeared to be jetting off on a well-earned holiday, after she posted a telling snap on her Instagram story.
Much needed break…
The photo showed a cup of coffee, as well as the star’s passport and a large bag.
The Preston-born actress captioned the upload: “Much needed break…”
The ITV favourite paused for a snap with her co-star Faye as they stepped out on the red carpet for the star-studded bash.
Coronation Street continues tomorrow on ITV at 7.30pm.
