The tribute comes after Emma's close friend Rylan Clark jokingly warned her not to tell Matt about their TV 'marriage'. On her 49th birthday, Rylan shared a photo from their Celebrity Big Brother days and wrote: 'Happy birthday to the TV wife. Wouldn't want to be married to anyone else. Don't tell Matt.'
