Lukas, best known for playing Ryder Jackson on the Aussie soap, shared a sweet video of their first dance from their big day. The couple tied the knot in a lavish ceremony at The Grounds of Alexandria in Sydney on Friday, with the venue transformed into a romantic oasis for the big day. A host of Home and Away stars from Summer Bay turned out to celebrate, including current cast members Emily Weir and Shane Withington, along with former favourites Courtney Miller and Sophie Dillman. Lukas and Liam also shared a dreamy video from the reception, capturing their first dance as newlyweds. The loved-up pair were seen holding each other close and sharing a kiss as silver confetti rained down around them, swaying to Taylor Swift's 'Lover' in front of a cheering crowd. 'You can hear the love in the room,' they wrote in a joint Instagram post — and fans couldn't agree more. The grooms looked seriously dapper for their big day. Lukas opted for a sharp double-breasted jacket over a cream tuxedo shirt, finishing the look with a classic black bow tie and a single white carnation pinned to his lapel. Liam, meanwhile, matched the timeless vibe in a crisp white jacket and studded shirt, also accessorised with a sleek black bow tie. Celeb SAS Who Dares Wins full line up revealed with ex Premier League footballer, pop icon and THREE Love Islanders The stylish couple perfectly coordinated their looks, adding to the elegance of the already picture-perfect celebration. Lukas previously opened up about his journey with sexuality, revealing he was still finding his feet while playing heartthrob Ryder Jackson on the Aussie soap. The actor, who hard-launched his relationship with now-husband Liam Forcadilla in 2023 after three years of dating, admitted he kept his personal life out of the spotlight during his time on the Channel Seven show. While Lukas never hid his sexuality, he told The Daily Telegraph he was simply 'coming to terms' with it during his early twenties. Real-life soap couples Soaps are renowned for their sweet and scandalous romances – but it's not just in scripted storylines where love is blossoming. A number of our favourite small-screen actors have fallen for co-stars and soapland rivals when the cameras have stopped rolling. Max Parker and Kris Mochrie Despite playing brothers Luke and Lee Posner on Emmerdale, the pair never actually shared any scenes together. But the pair still fell in love after meeting on set. Max and Kris got together in 2020, moving in together later than same year and got engaged in 2022. In a sweet Instagram post, the couple confirmed they're planning a 2025 wedding. Beth Cordingly and Ian Kelsey Beth, who plays Ruby Fox-Miligan, announced her love for her co-star Ian Kelsey, who played Dean Glover, shortly after she joined Emmerdale at the beginning of 2024. 'I am very in love with Ian and very happy. I think it really does work him being an actor too. He has been so fantastic," she gushed. Laura Norton and Mark Jordan Kerry Wyatt and Daz Eden actors Laura and Mark met on the set of Emmerdale in 2014. The couple, who got engaged in 2018, told Loose Women they spent a long time deciding whether they should "just stay as friends." Although it seems they were meant to be and the pair now share two children together. Zoe Henry and Jeff Hordley Emmerdale favourites Zoe and Jeff, who play Rhonda Goskirk and Cain Dingle met at drama college in 1994 and have been together ever since. While working together might be too much for some couples, that's definitely not the case for Zoe and Jeff. Zoe previously told The Sun: "Working on the same show as Jeff also helps because if one of us is having a bad day then the other will completely understand." Lesley Dunlop and Chris Chittell Lesley and Chris are another Dales romantic success story. Unlike some of the other soap stars, the pair who play Brenda Walker and Eric Pollard, are together on and off screen, officially tying the knot in 2016. They also adore working together, but have clear home-work boundaries. "We make a point of not talking about Emmerdale when we're at home, though – that would be just too sad, wouldn't it?" Chris revealed. Sally Carman and Joe Duttine Abi Franklin and Tim Metcalfe actors Sally and Joe got together after meeting on the set of Coronation Street in 2017 and they tied the knot in July 2022. But unlike some of the Emmerdale stars, Sally and Joe prefer that their characters don't interact much. Sally previously admitted it "would be horrendous" to work on a storyline with Joe because "he's too funny." Anthony Cotton and Peter Eccleston Sean Tully may have been unlucky in love on the cobbles, but in real life Antony's met his Prince Charming. The soap star started dating long-term partner Peter in 2005, after they met when he was working as an assistant props buyer on Corrie. Jane Danson and Robert Beck Corrie favourite Jane Danson tied the knot with soap star Robert Beck in 2005. The actress, who plays Leanne Battersby, shares two children, Harry and Sam, with the former Brookside star. During their marriage, Robert has also done a stint in Weatherfield playing criminal Jimmy Dockerson. Caroline Harding and Chris Gascoyne Chris, who played pub landlord Peter Barlow, married soap star Caroline in 2002. Although she is best known as an Emmerdale star, Caroline did visit her husband at work when she did a two-episode stint as doctor on the Manchester soap in 2020. The couple share a daughter called Belle, plus two children, Pip and Freddie from Caroline's previous marriage. Nadine Mulkerrin and Rory Douglas Speed Nadine Mulkerrin, and Rory Doulas Speed are known for their Hollyoaks alter egos Cleo McQueen and Joel Dexter. The loved-up pair got engaged on a December 2018 trip to Amsterdam - just over a year after they announced they were dating. They now share two kids, Reggie and Dougie. Sophie Austin and Shayne Ward Former Hollyoaks star Sophie, whose best known for playing villain Lindsay Butterfield, was introduced to singer and ex-Corrie star Shayne through mutual friends. She gave birth to their daughter Willow in December 2016 and they welcomed a son in 2022. "I definitely think when I was in my young twenties, I was still discovering myself — now I feel comfortable enough to be able to talk about it,' he shared. Reflecting on his journey, Lukas added: "The last five years have been quite a big journey for me; one, because of the show, but also coming into my own sense of self — just being comfortable, I guess." Lukas said he came out to friends and family before joining Home and Away, but kept things low-key in public due to his naturally shy personality. "I'm quite introverted, so it takes a while for me to warm up to talking about things. And then after that, it just wasn't an issue,' he added. Now, happily married and proud, fans say Lukas is living his truth — and they couldn't be happier for him. Flooding the comment section, one fan wrote: "AWWW congratulations guys what a beautiful wedding." Another added: "Absolutely STUNNING!! Congratulations Liam & Lukas 😍 Looked like it was a magical day." A third penned: "Congratulations to both off you. Miss you in home and away, but love it to see you so very happy." 4 Fans are thrilled to see Lukas is living his truth Credit: Instagram

Home and Away star Lukas Radovich marries partner in lavish Sydney wedding
Former Home and Away star Lukas Radovich has married his partner in a glamorous wedding in Sydney. The Australian actor, who played Ryder Jackson on the Seven soap from 2017 until 2022, shared a sweet video of his first dance with now-husband, professional netballer Liam Forcadilla. The happy couple married on Friday in a grand celebration at the Grounds of Alexandria, which was attended by fellow stars on the long-running soap, including Emily Weir, Shane Withington, Courtney Miller and Sophie Dillman. Taking to Instagram, Radovich and Forcadilla shared a clip of themselves dancing to Taylor Swift's Lover, as silver confetti dropped from the ceiling while they shared a kiss. Attendees could be heard cheering as the pair slow danced on the dance floor. 'You can hear the love in the room,' Forcadilla wrote alongside the video. Radovich, 30, became engaged to Forcadilla, who plays for the Australian men's netball team, in February last year. The duo met on Tinder and began dating in 2020. After departing Home and Away, Radovich opened up to the The Daily Telegraph about his sexuality for the first time. He said he came out to his parents just prior to accepting a role on the hit TV show. 'The reason I wasn't publicly talking about it when I was on the show was because I was still coming to terms with my sexuality,' Radovich said in the 2023 interview. 'If I had have been on the show now, it might have been a different story. I definitely think when I was in my young 20s, I was still discovering myself and that now I feel comfortable enough to be able to talk about it. 'The last five years has been quite a big journey for me, one, because of the show but also too coming into my own sense of self, just being comfortable I guess. 'I can't even remember what point I started telling people but it was definitely before the show. Coming into that world, I am quite a shy person by nature, quite introverted, so it takes a while for me to warm up to talking about things. And then after that it just wasn't an issue.'
