Derry Girls star Saoirse-Monica Jackson has shared news of her engagement to Scottish DJ Denis Sulta.

The 30-year-old Northern Irish actress, who is best known for playing Erin Quinn in the hit Channel 4 series, announced the news on Instagram.

She posted a picture of Denis Sulta answering a question in Metal magazine.

"What is your best memory looking back at the past year?" the DJ was asked.

"The day I proposed to my fiancé (sic) Saoirse," he replied.

Jackson added hearts and a teary-eyed emoji to the story.

In November last year the DJ, whose real name is Hector Barbour, threw a celebration to mark Jackson's 30th birthday.

Marking the occasion, he wrote on Instagram: "Happy 30th to the best thing in my life and on the planet full stop. What a weekend!"

In December, he celebrated their three-year anniversary with a carousel of photos to Instagram, writing: "Happy Anniversary darling @saoirsemonicajackson 3 years feels like 3 minutes what a total laugh, so lucky."

Jackson is next set to star in Upgraded, a new film streaming on Prime Video this month.
