Poldark’s Demelza shows off her puppy love, Bert

STRUGGLING with a troubled marriage to Aidan Turner’s Cap’n Ross in the hit BBC drama Poldark, actress Eleanor Tomlinson enjoys a much more enduring love off screen.

The 26-year- old, who plays Poldark’s fiery wife Demelza, returned to Cornwall last week to film the fifth and final series, but reveals she couldn’t stay away from her dog, Bert, for long.

Sharing a picture online of her on set with the Border Collie, she writes: ‘Of course he’s come to visit!’, adding the hashtag ‘best friend’. It must be puppy love.
