Poldark star’s new role as a bride-to-be
HEIDA REED plays Ross Poldark’s first love in the hit TV series, but breaks his heart by marrying his cousin.
Off screen, however, the actress’s romantic life has a much happier ending. For I can reveal that the Icelandic-born beauty, 29, has become engaged to her hunky American boyfriend, producer and actor 31-year-old Sam Ritzenberg (top).
The couple, who have been dating since last year, confirmed the news on social media, and Heida says of Sam: ‘That’s my fiancé!’ Heida flew her betrothed to meet her family in Iceland last September.‘He lives in LA so there’s a lot of back and forth,’ she told me at the time, adding he hadn’t seen Poldark before they met.
‘ He’s just started watching the first series, but he keeps watching it before bed so he always falls asleep.’
