The pair started dating while filming the show

Revenge co-stars Emily VanCamp and Josh Bowman are engaged, as the actress took to social media to share the happy news with fans.

Emily revealed the wonderful news of her engagement to Josh on Instagram, sharing a picture of her engagement ring.

The Everwood star met British actor Josh while the two starred together in the hit TV drama Revenge, in 2011.

The two actually played a married couple in the TV show, but their relationship was not a happy one - unlike in real life.

Talking to InStyle Australia in 2014, Emily referred to Josh as a her 'wonderful love'.

'I have a wonderful love in my life,' she told the publication. 'Trust is the most important thing in any relationship, because everything falls into place after that.'

Back when they started dating, Emily admitted in an interview that she was considering the possibility of having children.

'I find myself dreaming about [having children] all the time,', she said. In another interview with Women's Health, in 2013, the TV star also revealed that her and Josh's secret to keeping their relationship healthy was to not take each other for granted.

'Laugh a lot and be really delicate with the other person’s heart, because sometimes you start to take each other for granted', she said.

'Always remember that neither of you needs to be there. It’s a choice every day to stay together.'

Congratulations to the happy couple!
