Sally Dexter wears her ‘Emmerdale’ character’s clothes, because she had better fashion sense than her.
The 59-year-old actress recently started a break from the ITV soap after playing Faith Dingle since 2017, and admits she used to take inspiration from the ITV soap’s wardrobe department because she is a "terrible dresser".
She exclusively told BANG Showbiz: "I have got a few more, I’ve snuck away with them.
"Because I’m a terrible dresser, and the people in the show really know how to dress their cast.
"So I’ve tried to take as much notice from them as I can."
Sally recently admitted she feels as though she has left her "family" behind after departing ‘Emmerdale’.
She said: "It’s sort of irresistible. I do feel like I’ve left family up there, and we’re still in touch.
"They’re coming down to see me in the show.
"It’s so peculiar but I do feel like I have a son and a daughter, a granddaughter and several great-grandchildren. It feels like that."
Sally is currently focusing on her upcoming new role as Fan Marley, Ebenezer Scrooge’s sister, in a production of ‘Christmas Carol’, and admits it is her "most challenging" role to date.
She added: "This is the most challenging thing I think I’ve ever done, and possibly the most exciting.
"Going back to theatre, I was kind of thinking it’s going to be so much easier. You’ve got all this rehearsal time.
"Then suddenly you do it and you think, ‘It’s not that easy at all.’ "
