Taking to Instagram, Briony, a yoga teacher, shared a snap of the pair practising a yoga pose.
The picture shows Sam lying on the beach, lifting Briony into the air with his legs. She captioned the picture with a banana emoji.
Briony also shared a photo of her practising other moves, like balancing on one leg, with the stunning scenery behind her. She captioned the image, 'Married. Maldives. Magic'.

Albert Square's favourite ginge (apart from his onscreen dad Max, obv) Bradley, was a knitted jumper-wearing sweetheart and made us want to pinch his cheeks through the television between 2006 - 2010. We are still getting over his tragic fall, where he saw his grizzly end. Where is Charlie now?

We hardly recognise Charlie Clements with a beard! The actor uploaded the snap to Twitter with the caption.
