Former Emmerdale Star Charley Webb reunited with her friends from the soap on her 35th birthday.

The actress played Debbie Dingle for nearly two decades, making her debut in 2002 before exiting the ITV soap in 2021, and reunited with old co-stars to celebrate her special day.

In the Instagram post, Charley posted a picture of herself alongside Zoe Henry, Lucy Pargeter, Emma Atkins and Roxy Shahidi, writing: ‘This is 35. A room of most of my favorite people in our pyjamas.

In addition to the photo, Charley received some comments from other famous faces, with Emmerdale His co-star Eden Taylor-Draper writes: “Bday queen. I missed him furiously [it].”

Other celebrities who wished Charley a happy birthday included former Call the Midwife Liz White; Coronation Street star Sacha Parkinson and EastEnders’ Emma Burton.

Since leaving the soap, Charley has run her own business selling handmade toys, but revealed earlier this month that she had to ‘give up on her dream’.

“I’ve loved this chapter and the journey it’s taken us on, but we just don’t have the time to run it the way we want to,” he said. I love all things Scandi[navian] so that was a dream.”

Although he has no immediate plans to return to the Dales, Cain Dingle actor Jeff Hordley revealed he would love Charley to reprise her role, saying Debbie was the only one who could live up to his character.

“Kane has flaws, so I just have to find the reasons behind what he does. Nobody meets him like Debbie does and I’d love to have Charlie Webb, who plays her, come back,” he said.

Emmerdale airs weeknights at 7.30pm. on ITV1 and broadcast on ITVX.
