BREAKING: Hollyoaks' Roxanne McKee announces engagement days after sharing baby joy

Game of Thrones actress, Roxanne McKee is engaged days after announcing her baby news. The 45-year-old, who also starred in Hollyoaks, playing Louise Summers, announced her latest joyous update on Instagram.

In a sweet video on her Stories, the actress showed off a stunning sparkler while revealing that she’d had a ‘crush’ on her husband-to-be since she was 13 and was elated that he’d ‘finally proposed’.

In the gorgeous clip, Roxanne flashed a smile a mile wide next to her fiancé as she shared her latest life update. It comes after the actress took to social media earlier this week, revealing she was pregnant with her first child.

Taking to Instagram, sharing a snap of herself cradling her baby bump, Roxanne posed for a mirror selfie, sporting Calvin Klein underwear.

In a second picture in the reel she is seen kissing her partner on the cheek. And a third shows her holding hands with her man as he takes a photo of the pair in a window, with Roxanne's baby blossoming bump clear to see.

She captioned her upload: "Joint project," with red love heart emojis.

Responding, the actress' famous pals sent their congratulations, with fellow Hollyoaks legend Claire Cooper, known best to fans as feisty Jacqui McQueen, commenting: "I AM so crazy happy about this news … this is just GLORIOUS".

Meanwhile, Barry Sloane, who played the secret McQueen (and serial killer) Niall Rafferty, said: "Huge Congratulations!!!" And a third McQueen, Leah Hackett who played Tina, added: "Congratulations beautiful."

In Hollyoaks, Roxanne's character was brutally killed off in 2008. In hair-raising scenes, she was strangled to death by her fiancé, Warren Fox, played by Jamie Lomas. The death occurred on the couple's wedding day after she had found out her man had murdered her estranged husband Sean Kennedy, in true 'Oaks style.

At the time of her exit, Roxanne told Digital Spy: "I have enjoyed my time at Hollyoaks immensely and I’m going to really miss everyone at Lime Pictures. I have learned so much and will take away with me many happy memories - not just from everyone I have worked with but from Liverpool as a city too, which has become my second home.

"I know I will shed a few tears on the day I leave but I am so excited about what the future holds."

Following her Hollyoaks exit, Roxanne bagged roles on the likes of Lip Service, HBO's fantasy epic Game of Thrones, and Syfy’s apocalyptic supernatural drama Dominion
