“Emmerdale actress ‘set to marry convicted meth kingpin’ following prison visits”

“Emmerdale star Lucy Pargeter is said to be engaged to Elliott Walker, a convicted criminal serving time for his role in launching one of the UK’s largest meth labs.”

“Soap star Lucy Pargeter, 48, has reportedly been visiting 54-year-old Elliott Walker in prison — the man convicted for his involvement in setting up one of the biggest amphetamine labs ever uncovered in the UK.”

“Lucy is said to have travelled from her home in Yorkshire to HMP Hollesley Bay in Suffolk, where Elliott is serving a six-year sentence. The Daily Star has contacted Lucy for a comment.”

“The Sun recently published photos of her in the Hollesley Bay prison car park, where she was seen wearing a white vest and sunglasses.”

A source revealed: “Their relationship has become a hot topic in the prison, especially after some visitors recently recognised Lucy — she’s been a familiar face on Emmerdale for years. Elliott hasn’t kept quiet either; he’s been openly telling fellow inmates that she’s his fiancée.”

The soap star hasn’t disclosed how she met Walker, and it’s believed he’s nearing release after being imprisoned in 2021.

He had earlier pleaded guilty to conspiring to supply amphetamine. One of his associates in the gang received an 18-year sentence.

Television viewers will know Lucy from the ITV soap, though she also finished third on I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! in 2013. She earned a British Soap Award for Best Actress in 2019 for her role as Chas Dingle and previously played Helen Raven in Crossroads.
