Emmerdale star Alice Coulthard has tied the knot in an 'emotional' ceremony. Alice, who plays posh Maisie Wylde in the soap, married her fiance Owen Dyke at the weekend. Her co-star Lyndon Ogbourne, who plays Maisie's evil brother Nathan, tweeted: "What an amazing weekend! Alice and Owen are the best! Beautiful, emotional ceremony, wonderful vows and a festival party that smashed it! xx" James Sutton, who plays Maisie's half-brother Ryan Lamb, last month said he was looking forward to the wedding, saying: "It will be lovely. And her fiance is a smashing guy." Earlier this year it emerged that Alice is saying goodbye to the rural soap, where she has played troubled Maisie for two years. She reportedly plans to move back to London with Owen. Click here to watch whatsontv.co.uk's weekly soaps video preview, the Soap Scoop
