Eastenders actress Jessie Wallace has become engaged, according to reports.
The star, who plays Kat Moon in the hit soap, was spotted out-and-about wearing an engagement ring recently.
According to the Daily Star Sunday, Jessie is determined to keep her private life out of the public eye.
A source said: "Jessie really couldn't be happier or more settled at the moment. She made a few mistakes the first time around and was determined not to do the same when she went back."
"Her personal life was always very public, which made it all extremely difficult when her relationships didn't work out."
"Since she returned to 'EastEnders' she just goes to work and then comes straight home to be with her little girl."
"Jessie has never quite made it up the aisle but she's turning 40 later this year and it's something she'd like to do. She is determined not to let anything spoil what she has with her latest man."
"She's decided to keep him all to herself. She has no intention of bringing him into the limelight."
