Hollyoaks star Jessica Fox has revealed if she had her way she would check her character Nancy Osborne into rehab.
Nancy is currently battling prescription drug addiction and her reliance on the pills becomes so great that when Frankie Osborne locks her in the bathroom, she tries to escape through the window and almost risks falling to her death.
But Jessica told Inside Soap she thinks Nancy needs tough love.
She said: “I’d lock her in rehab for about three months!
“Nancy needs some serious help and counselling – though to be fair, she had it tough.
“I’ve been working on this show for a long time, and Nancy’s had a rough old time. It doesn’t surprise me that she’s falling apart now.”
And while Nancy may be over her ex Darren Osborne (Ashley Taylor Dawson), Jessica is still coming to terms with their split.
She said: “I think I’ll be forever mourning for Nancy and Darren, if I’m honest.
“It’s been really odd not working with Ashley. Obviously it’s not an actual relationship, but when you’ve been working with someone for a long time and the partnership on screen breaks down, you really miss them.”
