Another “Hollyoaks” alumni as Tilly Evans actress Lucy Dixon has already appeared in the ITV soap this month as a mystery woman named Danielle, who helped Curtis Delamere (Sam Retford) come to terms with his heart condition.

Danielle was accused as Curtis’ mistress when the two met at the Bistro to talk about his real health status, which resulted in a mess, as Curtis took advantage of the situation.

Claiming he’s slept with Danielle, Curtis hid the truth from his lover Emma Brooker (Alexandra Mardell) that he could “drop dead” any moment as he already collapsed twice due to his unknown heart condition.
