Emily Atack displayed her svelte physique in a black mini dress during a date at the Guards Polo Club with fiancé Alistair Garner. The actress, 36, drew inspiration from her role as Sarah Stratton in the Disney+ series "Rivals," posting photos of her outfit on Instagram. She paired the Rebecca Vallance dress, featuring dramatic shoulder pads, with white pointed-toe heels and a matching clutch.
"Giddy up! We’re off to the polo darling. No idea if this is the correct attire but thank you @rebeccavallance for this gorgeous dress," Atack captioned her post.
The couple, who welcomed their son Barney in June 2024, became engaged in July 2025. Earlier this year, Atack relocated from London to a village approximately 15 minutes from her mother's home, a move reportedly influenced by Garner.
Atack also revealed plans for her upcoming wedding to Garner, stating that children will not be invited to the three-day celebration in Andalusia, Spain. She described her vision for the nuptials as inspired by her "Rivals" character, envisioning "a huge dress and a big f[****]k off party."
"We're being kind to our friends and making sure that people don't have to worry too much about paying for lots of things, but we have said no kids at the wedding, no children," Atack explained on The Romesh Ranganathan Show podcast, adding that many guests have reacted positively to the child-free policy.
Atack previously confirmed September as the wedding month and has been involved in the planning process, noting her enjoyment in selecting details like napkins. The actress's mother had previously hinted at the wedding taking place this year.
Sources had previously indicated Spain as a potential wedding location, a country Atack has visited since childhood and holds fond memories of.
"I loved my family holidays there when I was growing up. We had a property there and my dad sold it a couple of years ago, but it's our favourite place and we still go every year, and stay in a hotel," Atack said.
"Rivals," in which Atack plays Sarah Stratton, recently released its second series on May 15. Atack also recently spoke about filming a new quiz show series alongside Danny Dyer, mentioning that her family, including baby Barney, were present during filming. She also alluded to a secret battle with sepsis following childbirth, which occurred while she was working.
"We really do have a laugh, and we did Rivals together but we don't have many scenes together so it was really nice to get to know each other one on one. I was there with my family, I got to bring my family, and I was there with my baby and it was, well, we loved it," she told The One Show hosts.
