Emmerdale fans devastated as Joe Tate star unveils LA girlfriend: ‘Sorry girls’

Former Emmerdale heartthrob Ned Porteous, 24, has reportedly found love across the pond with Lucy Heath, who is known for her roles in the short films Mating Call and Stretching The Pay.

The pair met in LA where Ned has spent the past year trying to break into the world of American acting.

An insider told The Sun: “It’s early days but Ned is really enjoying dating Lucy. They have both been in America recently looking for work and grew really close.”

The comments come after the pair were seen looking cosy at the Extreme Circus event together on Lucy’s Instagram, alongside a caption that read: “Thank you for having us circus people.”

The source also revealed: “Ned usually likes to keep his love life private but has been taking Lucy to various events both in London and LA.”

They added: “They have loads in common with their acting work and make a great looking couple – it’s just Ned’s fans who are gutted!”

As well as the snap from Lucy, Ned took to social media to share more cute pics of the couple together with one that showed them snuggled up in front of a lake in LA.

In a romantic gesture, Ned captioned the picture with a smiley emoji, seemingly confirming to his 120,000 followers that the pair are more than just friends.

Moreover, fans of the Emmerdale hunk were less than happy with the new-found love and comedically shared their united disappointment that Ned was no longer on the market.

One said: “Life is cruel.”

While a second posted: “Sad times, my dreams are crushed.”

And another added: “Sorry girls.”

Ned’s previous role in the soap saw him as a wealthy business owner and in a shock exit from the show, fans could only assume he was killed off.

However, fans of the show did see the character return for a cameo appearance last month although it was revealed he’s not set to return to the show full time.
