Ash, 54, was nominated in the best actress category for her role as Anna in TV show Mayflies, but lost out to Karen Pirie star Lauren Lyle.

She married Vera actor Kenny at Priston Mill in Bath in August.

Pals claimed Ashley “barely stopped smiling” during the “super fun” and “emotional” ceremony on August 9.

It came six years after she lost her first husband, who she shares 14-year-old son Francis with, to suicide.
