Posted on Instagram, the shots showed the TV star sisters out and about for the day, with Amelia in a pale green top and black jacket and Bella wrapped up in a white coat. Both wore their brunette locks loose over the shoulders as they pouted at the camera for the snaps.

Amelia was wearing silver earrings and a necklace and looked fresh-faced for her day with her sibling. “Best friend forever,” she captioned the pictures, adding a blue heart emoji. Bella then shared one of the images on her own Instagram Story, telling fans that Amelia was her “lifelong best friend”.

Fans loved the pictures of the soap stars, dropping red heart emojis in the comments section to show their appreciation. “Both so talented,” said one of Amelia’s followers, as another said the shots were “lovely”.

Isabella has previously said that her big sister inspired her when it came to acting. The Mirror previously quoted her as saying that she had loved watching Amelia on screen when she was younger.

“I’ve wanted to be on TV for a long time, my sister has been in Emmerdale since she was five and I love watching her, my audition was a really fun script and I was so excited when Ology (casting agency) rang my mum to give us the good news,” she said of landing her own part.

Amelia and Isabella’s brother William – who is Isabella’s twin – is also a soap actor, having played Weatherfield’s Joseph Brown for the last few years.
