She was joined by Fiona Wade, who recently left her role in Emmerdale as Priya Sharma.

But fans were even more excited to see the women were also joined by Paige Sandhu, who played evil serial killer Meena Jutla.

Paige was last seen on screen in April 2022 as Meena was jailed for 75 years for the three murders she had committed.

However, Emmerdale fans are clearly hopeful that she could return one day, and were delighted to see her in the picture alongside Rebecca and Fiona.

One Emmerdale fan commented: “the icons are back?!?!”

Another wrote: “PAIGE I’m actually so happy you’ve all reunited my fav trio ever.”

A third added: “I miss Meena ! Awesome photo though woop.”
