A former Hollyoaks and Footballer's Wives actress has talked her way out of a road ban for speeding because she argued that her son needed to be driven to football practice.
Phina Oruche, 52, faced a driving disqualification after a speed trap camera caught her driving her blue Fiat 500 at 36mph one one occasion and 37mph on another in a 30mph zone over a six-week period earlier this year.
The TV star, known for playing the role of Gabby Sharpe in Hollyoaks, asked the court to not ban her because her son was a "gifted" footballer who "wants to be the next Cristiano Ronaldo".
She added that the 14-year-old landed a two-year contract with League two club Crewe Alexandra and needed someone to drive him to the club's training ground in Cheshire - a 38-mile journey from the family home in Liverpool.
