Firm friends: Sheree Murphy and her former Emmerdale co-star Charley Webb were seen arriving at a restaurant in Liverpool today for Sheree's leaving party

She might be emigrating to Australia but her fellow WAGs and soap stars ensured she knew just how much she will be missed her in England.

Coleen Rooney, Alex Gerrard and a whole host of soap stars turned out to say goodbye to former Emmerdale star Sheree Murphy at her leaving party in Liverpool today.

The actress, who is currently pregnant with her fourth child, arrived at the 60 Hope Street restaurant with Charley Webb, who she starred with in the Yorkshire Dales-based soap.

Sheree, who is expecting the latest addition to the family in January, covered her baby bump in a cream cape top and a pair of black skinny jeans.

The actress, 36, was glowing as she arrived at the restaurant with a broad smile across her face.

nd it was the battle of the baby bumps as Alex Gerrard, who is also pregnant, joined the party showing off her figure in a pair of skinny black leather trousers and a black jacket.

But the WAG had concealed her baby bump and looked tiny given that she is expecting to give birth in the next eight weeks.

Alex teetered into the restaurant in sky-high leopard print heels and was carrying plenty of presents for Sheree.
