Former EastEnders star Natalie Cassidy is to marry her actor boyfriend Ben Porter.
A spokesman for the 25-year-old told The News Of The World: "She has never been happier. She has moved in with Ben."
Cassidy left the BBC soap last spring, having won two British Soap Awards for her portrayal of the character Sonia Jackson.
The actress went on to drop from a size 16 to a size ten for a fitness DVD, which became the fastest-selling video ever. However, she has since admitted it has been hard to maintain her trim physique and has reportedly shed tears over recent weight gain.
The couple plan to marry next spring, with Cassidy apparently having vowed to slim once more for her big day. She is said to have cried "tears of joy" when Porter popped the question.
Congratulations to Natalie and Ben
