In a recent photo shared on ’s Instagram Story, the actor – who starred as Effy in the teen drama – revealed she was hanging with her former co-stars and , who portrayed Chris and Posh Kenneth respectively in the show’s ‘First Generation’ cast.

The trio appeared to be at a wedding in the snap, as Kaya took the picture while sticking out her tongue, as Joe smiled sweetly and Daniel beamed at the camera.

Frankly put, Skins aficionados simply don’t know how to handle their meet-up.

‘I’m alive but I’m dead,’ one person tweeted in response to the picture, while another wrote: ‘Screaming crying throwing up.’

‘Seeing pictures of them hanging out together after all these years makes me feel so ?,’ someone else shared.
