Jack P Shepherd Says ‘YES’ To Forever
Jack P Shepherd is engaged to his long-time girlfriend, Hanni Treweek. The actor has been playing David Platt on the ITV soap since 2000. He met Treweek when she worked in the show’s script department, and the pair started dating in 2017. Recently, Treweek shared the exciting news in a joint Instagram post with her now fiancé.
The post showed a picture of the couple kissing after Shepherd proposed during their safari holiday earlier this month. The caption said, “05.06.24 I said YES to forever!!!” The comments section quickly filled with congratulatory messages, including wishes from soap star’s Corrie co-stars.
Julia Goulding (Shona Platt) expressed joy by commenting that the news was beautiful and congratulating the couple, calling them the ‘absolute perfect couple.” Samia Longchambon (Maria Connor) commented that the news was amazing and extended her congratulations.
Alan Halsall (Tyrone Dobbs), former star Michelle Keegan (Tina McIntyre), Catherine Tyldesley (Eva Price) and Emmerdale cast Michelle Hardwick also offered their best wishes. Previously, Shepherd has never hesitated to boast about his relationship with Hanni over the years.
In 2020, there were strong rumours about the couple’s wedding. However, the star denied them but mentioned that he eventually planned to marry Treweek. He stated, “We will get married, but we’re not engaged yet.” He explained that they wanted to achieve major milestones, although they weren’t quite there yet.
He added that he had discussed marriage and children with Hanni early on to ensure they were on the same page. At last, we send our hearty wishes to the couple on getting engaged.
