Emmerdale’s Eden Taylor-Draper has been enjoying a well-deserved holiday with her partner.
The actress, who is 28, is best known for playing the role of Belle Dingle in the ITV soap.
2025 was a busy year for Belle, as she took over Take a Vow following the deaths of Leyla Harding (Roxy Shahidi) and Suzy Merton (Martelle Edinborough).
Belle dealt with many stressed brides, but they were nothing compared to Coronation Street’s Debbie Webster (Sue Devaney), who wanted her big day to completely perfect with no slip ups.
Belle was tasked with ensuring a Dementia Choir was ready to perform at the ceremony, and also had to deal with Debbie accidentally booking her wedding for 2027 at one point as well!
Debbie and Ronnie Bailey’s (Vinta Morgan) wedding helped set the foundations for Corriedale, which saw a variety of residents from Weatherfield and Emmerdale caught up in a massive roadside crash.
Away from her soap alter-ego, Eden has been busy seeing what Australia and Vietnam has to offer. The star has shared a variety of memorable snaps from her trips on her Instagram, with some featuring her boyfriend Ed.
The views are stunning, and of course Eden couldn’t resist taking a few pictures of some koalas!
Belle Dingle remains single in Emmerdale, but has dipped her toe back into the dating pool after healing from her abusive relationship.
Belle started seeing Kammy Hadiq (Shebz Miah), who was incredibly respectful of Belle’s wishes to take their journey slow.
During an evening together at Wishing Well, Belle told Kammy that she was ready to take their relationship to the next level.

The next day, there was an undercurrent of awkwardness between the two, and neither of them could work out why.
As Belle headed off, Lewis Barton (Bradley Riches) stepped in for some counselling with Kammy, and managed to work out that Kammy mistook the ‘thrill of the chase’ for attraction.
Not wanting to lead her on, Kammy braced himself and headed to Wishing Well. He was nervous, but ultimately told Belle that he wasn’t really feeling it.
To his relief, she wasn’t either.
Kammy was in agreement when Belle said that she doesn’t feel any butterflies around him. They smiled and hugged, both deciding that they’d be better off as friends.
