Outnumbered child star Ramona Marquez looks unrecognisable in new pictures

Fans of BBC comedy series Outnumbered have been left shocked after seeing what star Ramona Marquez looks like now. The actress played Karen Brockman in the series, which began 16 years ago.

Ramona is now 22 years old and looks worlds away from her character. She was only six years old when she was first cast, and would play the character for seven years until she was 13.

Outnumbered returned once more for a Christmas special in 2016 and it has been off our screens ever since. Over the weekend, however, Ramona posted a TikTok video which ended up going viral.

While Ramona still features Karen's recognisably cheeky grin, she now rocks straightened brunette locks and a choppy fringe. The actress has also evolved into an edgy style, showing off dramatic flick eyeliner and a series of silver chain jewellery.

"Everybody told me that I sound like CG5, probably because I am CG5," the TikTok video began, before reminding fans who Ramona is best known for. "Everybody tells me that I look like the little girl from Outnumbered..." the audio finished, as the former actress smiled to the camera.

People were quick to comment on how much she has changed. One person said: "Oh my god you were my childhood". A second echoed: "I loved that show." And a third said: "Karen is literally me."

At its height, Outnumbered drew in 9.4million viewers per episode, with many British viewers hooked on relatable and funny series. For more TV and showbiz stories, subscribe to our newsletter here.
