Taking to her Instagram and Twitter, Lisa posted a loved-up snap of her and her fiancé beaming to the camera.
In the gushing caption, the soap star revealed that they are celebrating nine years together.
“HAPPY ANNIVERSARY BUBS. Wow Mr Al….it’s nine years today hey??? We must be doing something right!!!”
She finished off with: “Love you…..thanks for the laughter” along with a set of heart eye emojis.
Lisa’s loyal legion of fans rushed to congratulate the actress on their special day, with one person writing: “Happy Anniversary to you both. I hope you're having a lovely day.”
A second chimed in and said: “Awww Lovely photo 🙂 Happy Anniversary to you both!”
“Beautiful couple,” gushed a third follower.
Lisa is very secretive about her beau, not even revealing his surname, she often talks about him in interviews.
Speaking about her husband-to-be, the actress told the Mirror in 2020 said: "I already call him my husband and he calls me his wife.
"We just haven't gone down the aisle and got the ring and the paperwork.
"In the six years we’ve been together, we’ve never spent as much time together as we have this year and we still love each other."
While Lisa’s on-screen character Mandy has had her fair share of heartbreak over the years, it appears that the actress' love life had been just as rocky until meeting Al.
In her 2013 autobiography, Lisa opened up about disastrous love from her former lover coming out as gay to falling in love with a married man.
In an extract from her autobiography, Never Judge A Book By Its Cover, Lisa recalls her disastrous dating history.
She reveals that she once flat-shared with her best friend called Darren who she "fancied like crazy".
They pair ended up sleeping together after a few drinks and became "friends with benefits" but she wanted more.
She later spotted Darren kissing a man in a nightclub and later got himself a boyfriend.
