ITV Emmerdale’s Amy Nuttall reportedly rumbled husband Andrew Buchan’s affair with BBC Better co-star Leila Farzad after finding he had bought underwear - that wasn't her size. The actress reportedly rumbled Buchan and Farzard after they allegedly became close during the filming of the BBC thriller.
A source said to the Sun newspaper: “The penny started to drop over a period of time. He was away a lot, which wasn’t unusual because of the nature of his work, but at one point Amy realised he had been staying in hotels very near to home — and wondered why."
The source continued: “As time moved on, there were some tell-tale signs that he had become close to Leila — just something in his mannerisms and in their social media posts together. But the final straw was the lingerie — that’s what clinched it.

“Amy just knew instinctively that it wasn’t meant for her.” Earlier this month, Leila took to social media to share a gushing tribute to Andrew and the entire Better cast and crew.
Her caption read: “This lot. Couldn’t and wouldn’t happen without them. Big up the Better team who wiped my tears, held me up, fed me crumpets and made me smile." She added: “Don’t have pics of everyone but this gang got me through! We made a show, it’s NOT a Happy Valley replacement but a morality tale which should make you think”
On working with Andrew on the show, she added: “We never worked together before. He’s a dream to work with. He’s utterly open and generous and so highly skilled at what he does. I felt very lucky to be working with him on set every day.” Amy shot to fame in Emmerdale playing Chloe Atkinson and then starred as housemaid Ethel Parks in ITV period drama Downton Abbey.
