Lauren said: “I was over the moon when I found out I was joining the cast of Hollyoaks. Being from Liverpool I feel so lucky to be working in my home town and being part of such a successful show with cast I’ve looked up to since I was 12. I couldn’t have been cast in a better family!"
Lily arrives in Hollyoaks after tragically losing her mother and Hollyoaks says that although she has a very soft nature she 'is one tough cookie and a little mischievous like her Aunty Diane'.
