Hollyoaks’ Owen Warner and Jenna Donovan make red carpet debut as a couple at the British Soap Awards
HOLLYOAKS' Owen Warner and Jenna Donovan made their red carpet debut as a couple at the British Soap Awards tonight.
The stunning pair sent the rumour mill into overdrive in the last couple of months about whether they were dating in real life, before jetting off on holiday to Morocco together in May.
Now at tonight's British Soap Awards, Owen, 23, posed with Jemma, also 23, on his arm on the red carpet.
The couple - who play Romeo Nightingale and Rayne Royce in Hollyoaks - smiled happily at one another as they posed for pictures.
Jemma looked stunning in a red figure-hugging dress which featured a plunging neckline.
Meanwhile Owen complimented his girlfriend's ensemble in a dark red velvet tuxedo jacket, black trousers and dickie bow on a white shirt.

Speaking about their relationship to The Sun, Owen joked: "Jemma kept messaging me and messaging and asking me to go on dates and then I just gave in.
"Ahhh seriously though it took me a while to pluck up the courage to ask her out.
"I’ve just been on holiday with her family they are all amazing.”
While the couple holidayed in Italy with Jemma's family - including famous father Jason Donovan - they then headed to Morocco on their own for another trip.

They shared snaps of their villa with fans on Instagram Stories, and both uploaded several videos showing off how luxurious it was.
Jemma joined Hollyoaks in October last year, and her character Rayne is in a relationship with Owen's character Romeo.
However the couple have hit a hurdle in the romance lately as they deal with a nude photo leak.
Hollyoaks airs on Channel 4, while The British Soap Awards air on Tuesday, June 6 at 8pm on ITV1.
