Emmerdale star Bradley Riches has revealed a host of famous faces who will be in attendance at his wedding later this month.

The actor, who plays Lewis Barton on the ITV soap, is set to wed partner Scott Johnston in the coming weeks. The couple got engaged in early 2024, just weeks after Bradley competed in Celebrity Big Brother.

The Heartstopper star took to social media at the time, sharing pictures of himself and Scott inside a heart made out of rose petals, taken in Sorrento, Italy.

‘Erm…YES!,’ he wrote in the caption.

‘I never thought I’d find someone who’s gets me and loves me for me. I have always struggled connecting my emotions in relationships and then @scottjohnston1.8 came.

‘I felt safe and accepted and most importantly loved. I love you endlessly.’

With the wedding approaching, Bradley has spoken about who will be attending the service and, given that he is known for his roles in both Heartstopper and Emmerdale – plus his stint on CBB – he’s made quite a lot of famous friends over the years!

‘So obviously we’ve got my new friends from Emmerdale, a couple of them are coming,’ he told The Mail. ‘Heartstopper, some of them. The Big Brother lot.

‘We were kind of like, obviously we will invite our loved ones and all our friends, and then I looked at the list and went: “Oh my god, I’ve actually got quite a lot of famous friends, I didn’t realise”. I was like: “Maybe I am embedded in the industry slowly”.

Last year, Bradley joined the cast of Emmerdale, playing the role of Lewis, who was revealed to be a secret child of Emma Barton, meaning that he’s also mainstay Ross’ sibling.

The character has swiftly become a fan-favourite, known for his big heart and genuine kindness – not to mention his ability to elevate just about every scene that he appears in!

Lewis has developed an already iconic partnership with Nicola King (Nicola Wheeler), with who he runs Main Street cafe, and recently he embarked on a romance with Vinny Dingle (Bradley Johnston).
