Nessa from Gavin and Stacey, played by Ruth Jones, was spotted ‘in tears’ during filming for the much-anticipated Christmas special. This comes just months after it was announced that the beloved BBC show would be returning for its final episode.
Ruth’s character Nessa had a tumultuous relationship with Smithy, portrayed by James Corden, throughout the sitcom’s run from 2007 to 2020. The pair even welcomed their son Neil while Nessa was dating Dave Coaches.
In the 2019 Christmas special, Nessa confessed her love for Smithy and proposed to him. However, viewers were left hanging as the credits rolled before Smithy could respond.
