Emmerdale star Rebecca Sarker has revealed that her husband gave her the confidence to post sexier snaps on Instagram as she spoke in a candid new interview.
The actress, 50, who plays Dr Manpreet Sharma in the long-running soap, said Rico had praised her figure and so now she poses in cheekier outfits.
However she insisted that unlike her character’s current Emmerdale storyline she would never strip off for OnlyFans.
She told The Sun: ‘A few years ago I had been doing some stunt scenes for Emmerdale wearing Lycra pants and a sports bra.
‘I sent a picture of me to my husband as I’d been doing some working out and I thought I looked quite good.
‘He said, ‘Post it on Instagram’. My immediate reaction was, ‘No, no, I can’t post that’.

‘But after checking with the production team asking if it was too outrageous, I was assured it wasn’t.’
She now enjoys showing off her figure online with bikini snaps and gorgeous sexy outfits.
Rebecca told how she now gets loads of complimentary messages from other women online about her content as she insisted: ‘there’s nothing wrong with posting a bikini holiday snap on Instagram.’
But in the interview she said she would never try and make money on OnlyFans – an X-rated subscription site.
However her character on Emmerdale did. Manpreet shared intimate pictures of herself after setting up a profile on a site called Fans Only.
But she was left dealing with a nightmare when a mystery person threatened to expose her unless she handed over £5,000.
In other Emmerdale news, earlier this week it was revealed that former soap star Glenda McKay is making a return to acting – 26 years after her character was dramatically killed off and she walked away from showbiz to become a schoolteacher.
The actress, now 54, famously played Rachel Hughes, the mother of Joe Tate, in the ITV soap Emmerdale for more than a decade from 1988 to 1999.

She now definitely enjoys showing off her figure online with bikini snaps and gorgeous sexy outfits
Glenda, who joined the cast at just 17 alongside her real–life brother Craig McKay, 52, stepped away from the spotlight shortly after her character’s shocking death.
But now, she’s set to return to TV screens – this time swapping the Yorkshire Dales for the cobbles of Coronation Street.
A source told The Sun: ‘Glenda is making an acting comeback 13 years after she was last on TV.
‘She’ll be playing a social worker called Alison Hale who deals with Tim and Sally.
‘Just as she arrives to tell them they’re set to foster the Michealis children, a shocking incident happens that throws everything into chaos.’
ITV confirmed to the Daily Mail that Glenda will make a guest appearance in one episode as a visiting artist.
Glenda’s Emmerdale exit remains one of the soap’s most unforgettable moments.
