Hollyoaks star Niamh Blackshaw will be front and centre in a huge new storyline after her character was recently diagnosed with cancer.
Niamh has played Juliet Nightingale since 2018 and the character has experienced many highs and lows since, including being part of the County lines drug trafficking storyline, exploring her sexuality and even being stalked. However, many will know Juliet for her relationship with Peri Lomax (played by Ruby O’Donnell), with the two often gaining huge support from fans.
The two recently split and things have since gone even more downhill for Juliet, who recently discovered she has Hodgkin's Lymphoma and will need to undergo chemotherapy treatment. Juliet has been seen struggling to tell her friends and family, and with huge scenes expected to air over Christmas, the storyline looks to be Niamh’s biggest challenge yet.
