Inside Hollyoaks star Nikki Sanderson’s romantic date night with Emmerdale’s Anthony Quinlan as she shares rare photos
HOLLYOAKS actress Nikki Sanderson has shared a snippet of her notoriously private relationship with Anthony Quinlan.
The Maxine Minniver actress, 38, and her man headed to Winter Wonderland at London’s Hyde Park for a special night out.
Anthony, 38, who previously starred in Emmerdale and Hollyoaks, placed a protective arm around his partner as they enjoyed a hot drink.
Nikki, who wore a khaki puffa jacket and cute nude bobble hat, posed up a storm as she explored the festive attraction.
The duo stopped off for some grub at a hot dog stand before posing for a loved-up picture in front of a huge Christmas tree.
They later visited the amusements and were spotted outside a teddy bear stall.
The pair then enjoyed a cheeky ice skate before finishing up with a snap outside the Winter Wonderland sign.
Nikki sweetly captioned the snaps: “ Date Night .”
The cute couple struck up a romance last year and previously said they’re “really, really happy”.
During the summer, Anthony exclusively opened up to The Sun about the pair’s blossoming relationship.
He told us: “I’ve always fancied her. She’s mega hot, right?”
Despite this, the pair were friends for a long time before anything happened between them.
“We’ve known each other for years,” said Anthony.
“There were rumours we met at the gym, which we had a bit of a laugh about.
“I slid into the DMs and that was it. I was lucky enough to get a date and the rest is history.”
Talking about his other half, smitten Anthony gushed: “All I can say is I’m really, really happy and she’s a very special girl. She’s lovely.”
Anthony quit Emmerdale in 2019 to launch BoxedOff– a company that provides plant-based supplements and nutrition to help customers achieve their fitness goals.
He famously dated Strictly professional Dianne Buswell in 2018 before she grew close to her now-boyfriend Joe Sugg who was her celeb partner on the show.
