Carley Stenson :
Carley originally landed a small role as ‘Steph Dean’ in the Ch 4 show “Hollyoaks†expecting to only appear in a few episodes. However as her popularity and talent flourished she was rewarded with more prominent storylines and eventually her own family.
Carley is proud that she is now the longest serving female on the show having first appeared at the tender age of 18.
Carley has a huge love of singing and performing and she combines this with her charity work often giving her free time up to sing at events.

A DIAMOND Poem
They are not just anybody standing in the crowd These diamonds emerge sparkling girls aloud. Shining through the panoramic view Performing not just anything but something for you. These diamonds penetrate the crowd Singing melodically in harmony and so proud. Not just anything but something special and new Performing not just for anyone, but for you.
