Verity Rushworth misses her 'Emmerdale' co-star Deena Payne.

The actress plays Donna Windsor-Dingle in the soap and is very close to Deena, who plays her on-screen mum Viv Hope, and says working is just not the same now Deena is on a break.

Verity said: "I call Deena my second mum. I was only 12 when I started on the soap and from the very start she was very protective of me."

The actress reveals she always keeps in touch with Deena, and sees a lot of her outside work.

She said: "I'm always going round for parties - Deena throws the best parties."

The actress recently revealed she is considering moving to the US to find a boyfriend because she thinks she has exhausted any potential loves in the UK.

She said: "I love sensitive, arty types and want to be treated like a princess. I have a big crush on Josh Groban, you know, the singer? He's gorgeous! When he sings, I just melt. Even my mum approves of him."
