Huge country-pop artist transforms into a ruthless boxing promoter character as she joins the cast of Emmerdale after releasing new music

Country-pop singer Twinnie-Lee Moore is swapping Nashville for the Yorkshire village as she joins the cast of Emmerdale.

The singer, 37, who previously starred in Hollyoaks, is taking on an exciting new character and will first appear on screen on Friday, October 11.

Twinnie gushed she has had 'so much fun' on set as she transformed into the ambitious and ruthless boxing promoter Jade.

With Billy Fletcher (Jay Kontzle) already drawn into the dark world of unlicensed boxing, Jade’s arrival will put pressure on him to continue this dangerous trade.

But Jade has an agenda and Billy’s safety is not on it. He’s tempted by Jade’s offer and the financial promises that come with it, but he’s also aware of the dangerous consequences it may bring.

Over the coming months, will Billy come to regret his association with callous Jade or has he already put his family in grave danger.

Speaking about her new role, Twinnie said: 'My life has been a bit crazy recently juggling music and acting with lots of back and forth between Nashville and Yorkshire but I’ve been loving it!! 

'I’ve loved being back on screen, especially as the show is shot in Yorkshire, being able to be home with family and go to work on such an iconic show has been nothing short of amazing! 

'The whole team has been so welcoming and really supportive. My character is so much fun to play and I can’t wait to see how the audience reacts to her.'  

Twinnie previously played Nikki Allcott in Doctors which aired on BBC One in 2013 before joining Hollyoaks as Porsche McQueen in 2014.

Her character highlighted the issues of sexual abuse in children, whilst her other storylines included a failed marriage when her husband had various affairs. 

Twinnie left Hollyoaks in October 2015, with her exit scenes airing on Christmas Eve that year. 

For her role, Twinnie was nominated for the British Soap Award for Best Newcomer and an Inside Soap Award.
