Emmerdale spoilers follow.
Emmerdale has cast Hollyoaks star Twinnie-Lee Moore in Billy Fletcher’s ongoing storyline.
The country singer and actor, who played Porsche McQueen in the Channel 4 soap, will enter the Dales for a guest stint as ruthless boxing promoter Jade. She will first appear during Friday’s (October 11) episode.
Over the past few weeks, Billy has been keeping a secret from his wife Dawn. She recently found a stash of cash in their home, with Billy acting suspiciously cagey when asked about it.
Earlier this week, Billy showed up at Mackenzie Boyd’s house covered in blood, where he admitted that he’s been taking part in unlicensed boxing matches.

He explained that he needs the money to help support his family, particularly while his baby son Evan undergoes treatment for leukaemia.
With Billy now involved in the dark world of unlicensed boxing, Jade’s upcoming arrival will pressurise him into continuing down this dangerous path.
However, Jade arrives with an agenda that doesn’t involve Billy’s safety. He’s tempted by Jade’s financial promises, but he’s also aware of the dangerous consequences it may cause.
Over the coming months, will Billy begin to regret getting involved with heartless Jade or has he already put his family in danger?

“My life has been a bit crazy recently juggling music and acting with lots of back and forth between Nashville and Yorkshire but I’ve been loving it!” said Moore in a statement.
“I’ve loved being back on screen, especially as the show is shot in Yorkshire, being able to be home with family and go to work on such an iconic show has been nothing short of amazing!
“The whole team has been so welcoming and really supportive. My character is so much fun to play and I can’t wait to see how the audience reacts to her.”
Moore joined Hollyoaks as Porsche McQueen in November 2014, before leaving the following year.
The character was involved in a number of memorable storylines, including a failed marriage to Lockie Campbell and a hard-hitting child abuse plot.
Emmerdale airs on weeknights at 7.30pm on ITV1, and streams on ITVX.
