A former Emmerdale is mother of a chart-topping music star.
Trudie Goodwin, who played Georgia Sharma in Emmerdale between 2011 and 2015, is the mum of La Roux lead singer Elly Jackson. As you might remember, La Roux came to fame back in 2009 with songs such as In For The Kill and Bulletproof.
The band scored a number two in the charts with their first album and bagged a number one single with the release of Bulletproof. To date, La Roux has released three albums in total with the most recent coming in 2020.

Down the years, the group has received award nominations for the Mercury Prize, the Brits and Ivor Novello amongst others.
Mum Trudie was a popular addition to the Emmerdale cast but it is another ITV show where she’s arguably best known. She played June Ackland from 1984 until 2007.
Police drama The Bill came to an end in 2010 but there are plans in place for it to return later this year. Trudie, alongside Graham Cole and Mark Wingett, will be one of the three acting stars due to return to the programme.
Elsewhere, Trudie has enjoyed parts in Heartbeat, Casualty and Moving On.
