ok.co.ukActress Charley Webb spent almost 20 years on our screens as Emmerdale’s feisty Debbie Dingle after joining the soap aged 14.
Now, the Manchester-born actress is a 35-year-old mum of three, embarking on a new adventure after saying goodbye to the Dales for the final time in 2021.
Speaking exclusively to OK!, she opens up about the work-life juggle, especially when it comes to suffering “mum guilt” over sons Buster, 13, Bowie, seven, and Ace, four, who she shares with her husband and former Emmerdale co-star Matthew Wolfenden. “I do have mum guilt, definitely – I think every mum does,” she tells us. “Even if you go for a coffee with a friend, you have mum guilt – you can’t really get rid of it.
