Hollyoaks actress Ruby O’Donnell has confirmed that she is dating her co-star Nathaniel Dass, who plays Dillon Ray, and shared a romantic photo on Instagram.
O’Donnell, who has played Peri Lomax in the soap since 2013, posted a snap of herself hugging Dass, who has his arm around her, as the two stand on a balcony in front of an Ibiza sunset.
The actor captioned his post with a red heart and the couple’s other Hollyoaks stars expressed their excitement about the photo in the comments.

Cleo McQueen star Nadine Mulkerrin commented: “You guy!” while Nikki Sanderson, who plays Maxine Minniver, wrote “love” alongside a heart emoji.
Freya Calder actress Ellie Henry, Frankie Osborne star Isabelle Smith and Alex Fletcher, who plays Diane Hutchinson, also expressed their appreciation for the couple in the post.
Neither actor has commented further on their relationship, although it appears the two have already taken a romantic trip to Paris after O’Donnell shared a photo on Instagram of her legs next to those of an unknown person under the Eiffel Tower.
On screen, Peri is currently single, having last dated Romeo Nightingale. Dillon is now officially dating Lucas Hay, after helping to save him from “conversion therapy” at the hands of Carter Shepherd.

Dass recently spoke with Digital Spy about his character’s turbulent journey to her romance with Lucas and revealed that he would love to see the young couple go to extremes.
“I think after everything they’ve been through, it would be nice to see them just happy together,” he said.
“But knowing the track record of Hollyoaks, I can guarantee there will probably be things that mess everything up or hinder it. I’ll keep my fingers crossed, we’ll see. Hopefully they’ll be happy together, I’d love to see that.”
Hollyoaks streams first online via Channel 4 every weekday at 7:30pm. The episodes will then air on E4 the following day before premiering on YouTube a week later.
Selected omnibus episodes are available via Prime Video.
