Emmerdale's Amy Nuttall 'rumbled' husband Andrew Buchan's 'affair' after he 'bought lingerie'

Emmerdale's Amy Nuttall allegedly discovered her husband, Andrew Buchan's, affair with his BBC Better co-star Leila Farzad after finding out he had bought underwear that wasn't her size.

Amy Nuttall allegedly discovered the affair after the pair had become close during the filming of the BBC show, reports Birmingham Live. A source said to the Sun newspaper: “The penny started to drop over a period of time. He was away a lot, which wasn’t unusual because of the nature of his work, but at one point Amy realised he had been staying in hotels very near to home — and wondered why."

The source continued: “As time moved on, there were some tell-tale signs that he had become close to Leila — just something in his mannerisms and in their social media posts together. But the final straw was the lingerie — that’s what clinched it.

"Amy just knew instinctively that it wasn’t meant for her.”

Leila Farzad took to social media in February to share a tribute to Andrew Buchan as well as the cast and crew of Better. She wrote: "This lot. Couldn’t and wouldn’t happen without them. Big up the Better team who wiped my tears, held me up, fed me crumpets and made me smile."

She added: "Don’t have pics of everyone but this gang got me through! We made a show, it’s NOT a Happy Valley replacement but a morality tale which should make you think.”

Leila also wrote about Andrew: "We never worked together before. He’s a dream to work with. He’s utterly open and generous and so highly skilled at what he does. I felt very lucky to be working with him on set every day."
