During the evening Emmerdale and EastEnders will battle it out for the top categories at the ceremony, with each show receiving 13 nominations. 

The two shows have eclipsed rivals Coronation Street and Hollyoaks, who have secured 11 nominations each. 

The glitzy event will once again be hosted by Jane McDonald as it returns following a surprise hiatus last year.

As always, the numerous accolades will be presented by an array of well-known faces from across the TV and showbiz world, with the TV event broadcasting a few days later in a primetime slot.

Scarlett is reportedly set for a £2million payday as she’s tipped to become a huge star.

And while her parents and former couple Tina and Ryan have made a name for themselves on the small screen, it appears they may well be outshone by their rising star daughter as she forges a flourishing career.

The Sun reports that while Ryan and Tina have had tensions in the past, they’ve come together in strong support of their daughter. 

A source has noted the family have ‘huge plans’ for Scarlett (as well as her cousin Teddy) and ‘spend hours’ deliberating the best steps for their career.

With Scarlett making waves not only in her role on BBC’s Waterloo Road but on social media too, industry experts told the publication that she could make ‘at least £2million before she’s even 18.’ 

At the age of 14, the budding actress was quickly snapped up for her first major role on screen, winning the part of Izzie Charles in the BBC drama Waterloo Road. 

During her stint on the series, Scarlett starred alongside her uncle, former Emmerdale star Adam Thomas, 36. 

He played her on-screen father, Donte, while his son Teddy, 9, who he shares with his wife Caroline Thomas, played his on-screen son.
