EastEnders Natalie Cassidy’s love life with co-star beau – feud and soulmates

EastEnders legend Natalie Cassidy has played iconic Sonia Fowler on EastEnders since she was just nine-years-old in 1993.

Throughout her three-decade-long-stint, the fan fave has been part of some of the biggest storylines from teenage pregnancies to shock murders.

And it’s safe to say her on-screen love life is a tad hit and miss too – who could forget her boyfriend Jamie Mitchell (Jack Ryder) getting killed off back in 2002 on Christmas Day?

But fast forward to now, and over 20 years later it appears Sonia’s live life is still not as great as she may have hoped.

In recent episodes, the bruntte beauty has faced heartache after she found out her new beau Reiss Colwell is actually married.

So as Sonia’s love life starts to take a dip in Albert Square, Daily Star is taking a look inside actor Natalie’s off-screen romance with her long-term beau.

'We are all so in love'

Natalie and Marc first got together in 2014 and revealed their engagement a year later in October.

Shortly after the pair announced they were expecting their first daughter together and welcomed their sweet tot Joanie Elizabeth Cassidy-Humphreys in 2016.

In August, shared the sweet news on Twitter and wrote: "Twitter post which read: "@cameramarc and I introduce Joanie Elizabeth Cassidy-Humphreys… We are all so in love!"

Natalie also has daughter Eliza, ten, from a previous relationship with ex-Adam Cottrell.

Sweet family snaps

The family of three are no strangers to hearing on a fun-filled holiday – with Natalie often bringing her followers along for the ride.

Just last week, the pair headed on a romantic Irish getaway to kick off her 40th birthday celebrations.

The soap star and her fiancée beamed for the camera as they kicked off their getaway on a flight.

Later on they shared even more sweet snaps, including selfies of the pair sipping on the country's famous beverages.

'Saucy' tweet and 'soulmates'

Keeping the fire alive, back in 2015, Natalie sent a rather sweet Tweet about waiting for Marc's "handsome face" to come on home.

Alongside a selfie of Marc at work, she wrote: "Marc hard at work for Smyle Creative… Hurry up and get your handsome face home."

And despite hardly every posting sweet selfies, in 2020, the soap star shared another rare snap with Marc branding him her "soulmate".

Taking to Instagram to share a loved-up snap as she lovingly gazed at her beau Marc, Natalie wrote: "It doesn’t really matter what’s going on as long as we have each other.

And yes. My nose is rather large. @camera_marc." She added the hashtags: "'soulmates laughteristhebestmedicine kidsareinbed peaceatlast."

‘Feud’ with co-stars

In 2020, an EastEnders spin off show, Secrets from the Square premiered on BBC and was hosted by Stacey Dooley.

What’s more, viewers were also introduced to Marc as the real-life partner of Natalie – when she revealed that he was one of the cameramen on EastEnders.

As he appeared on camera, Ian Beale actor Adam Woodyatt joked to host Stacey: "We can't stand Marc!"

He then added: "We have to be nice to him because he's with Nat."

A shocked Stacey then replied: "Are you? You're Sonia's husband?"
