ITV Emmerdale star breaks silence after husband sees her kissing two co-stars
Emmerdale star Amy Walsh opened up about her husband's struggles with her kissing two of her male co-stars.
Emmerdale’s Amy Walsh detailed her husband’s reaction after her affair storyline began to heat up.
The actress, who plays Tracy Shankley in the ITV soap, is married to Toby-Alexander Smith, the actor best known for playing Gray Atkins in EastEnders.
Amy and Toby tied the knot last year after the married couple met in the audience of a Strictly Come Dancing episode. They also share a daughter.
The soap star is currently starring in ITVBe’s new reality show Drama Queens. The series, which also features the likes of Roxy Shahidi, Ellie Leach and Lucy Fallon, looks at what life is like for soap stars away from filming.
The 37-year-old admitted her other half is not keen on watching her kiss her co-stars during storylines.

Amy’s character Tracy has been involved in an affair plot with Nate Robinson and Caleb Milligan, and a recent episode aired that saw her kiss both actors Jurell Carter and William Ash.
“In one episode, I was kissing two different men and me and Toby had literally just come back from our honeymoon”, Amy explained.
“It was a bit cringe watching it with him, I have to be honest. We had to turn it off. Some days, I’d come back from work and kiss him hello and go, ‘Oh, I’ve literally just been kissing Jurell. I’ve not even washed my face!'”.
She added: “[Toby] would be like, ‘Great, thanks!'”

Meanwhile, Amy’s partner Toby is no stranger to soaps having played serial killer Gray Atkins from 2019-2022 in Albert Square.
After murdering Chantelle Atkins, Kush Kazemi and Tina Carter, Gray’s exit storyline saw him finally arrested for the crimes.
Toby can now be seen in a new adaptation of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, called An American in Austen, where he takes on the role of Mr Bingley.
Emmerdale continues tonight on ITV at 7.30pm
