The former Coronation Street star was by all accounts the blushing bride when she married her partner Iwan in a church ceremony on Wednesday.
Faye said ‘yes’ at Shipton Moyne Church after a whirlwind ten-month romance with her theater boss partner.
The actress announced her engagement in January after just four months of dating Iwan, whom she met in 2011 when she starred in the stage production of Legally Blonde.
In December 2022, they went official on Instagram when Faye shared a photo of the pair posing in front of the window as they wrapped their arms around each other for a steamy kiss.
After only four months of dating, Iwan got down on one knee to pop the question and the couple wasted no time in saying “Yes.”
That’s what a source recently said The sun: ‘Faye has been very busy with Strictly Ballroom for the past few months, but has been secretly behind the scenes planning her big day.

She wrapped up her appearance on the show last month and all stations are going out to make her dream wedding a reality in just a few weeks.
‘Faye and Iwan have chosen a beautiful location in the Cotswolds, not far from where they now live. It will be a very quiet and very intimate affair, with only their loved ones present.
“It won’t be a big glitzy celebrity event, but instead will have drama school friends and Faye’s oldest friends in attendance.”
Faye was previously in a relationship with personal trainer Joe Davis, but they split in July 2022 after three years of dating.
The Dancing On Ice star also had a relationship with singer Gareth Gates for seven years.
The former couple got engaged in January 2019, but canceled the wedding in August of that year and split.
