This is the 61st post in our Celebrity of the Day series.
The multi-talented star was born in England in 1985. She studied at the Turton High School Media Arts College before completely devoting her time to her careers. She is an actress, singer and model, a trio of talents that certainly keeps her busy. She was once offered a £2000 record deal for her singing but turned it down.
She actually got her big break when she was chosen from her agency to attend the Emmerdale auditions for the part of Kate Addyman in 2001. She got the part and has remained on the series for more than 250 episodes. It is undoubtedly what she is most well known for.
She has also made appearances on Orange Playlist, The Anthony Cotton Show, Soapstar Superstar and All Star Family Fortunes. In 2007, she announced plans to leave Emmerdale for one year in order to work on her modeling career but gave no indication of when this would happen.
