Former Emmerdale child star Daisy Campbell has shared bikini-clad pictures from a summer getaway in Ibiza. The 23-year-old actress enjoyed a boat day during the trip, posing on the back of the vessel in a lace bikini.
She looked fresh from a dip in the sea with wet blonde hair and a make-up free look while kneeling on the sun deck. Additional photos showed her climbing up the boat's ladder to get back onto it, appearing sultry in one snap and smiley in another.
Daisy also shared photos from a day at O Beach, where she sported a bright blue bikini along with a pair of funky sunglasses and jewellery.
Viewers best know the actress for her long-running role as Amelia Spencer on Emmerdale. She first joined the ITV soap back in 2011 at seven years old, featuring in high-profile storylines over the years, including a shock pregnancy and a relationship with villain Tom King.
Leaving Emmerdale
Daisy was written out of the show in 2024 after 13 years when a new producer took charge. Bosses admitted that they had run out of storylines for her after her character's parents previously left the dales, leaving Amelia all alone.
The actress admitted she struggled while filming her final scenes after ITV bosses called her in to tell her about her exit. She told The Mirror: "It wasn't my choice to leave Emmerdale and it was a shock at first. Being in Emmerdale is all I have ever known. I've spent the whole of my childhood growing up in the soap and it felt daunting."
Speaking last year, Daisy said she "scarified" many parts of her childhood for the ITV show. Despite insisting her time on the soap was "such a privilege," she confessed: "I feel like I did miss out a lot during my childhood with friends and stuff. I used to want to stay at school with my friends rather than be on set."
Support From Co-Stars
The decision to write out her character left the actress upset and in a dark hole. Daisy explained: "When it's been ripped away from you, because that's what it genuinely felt like, it was so out of the blue, you do just get into a bit of a hole of, oh god, like, can I do this?".
After finding out about her exit, Daisy revealed to the publication that she only told three of her closest friends and co-stars: Rosie Bentham, Katie Hill, and Jack Downham. She explained how her co-stars were left utterly devastated by the news but supported her behind the scenes.
Daisy said: "They were upset for me but so supportive. I didn't tell the rest of the cast my news initially as I wanted the time to process everything. I needed time to grieve the part of Amelia".
Opening That Pilates Place
Daisy said that despite a brief appearance in Casualty, she struggled to find work after leaving the soap. She eventually turned her back on acting to open a Pilates studio.
She told The Sun: "I found it hard, I love my acting, I do, but I wanted something stable for myself, because I'm so, like, wanting to keep myself busy all the time. I was like 'What can I do that's gonna make me not just want to sit at home all the time?'"
Daisy will soon use her Emmerdale earnings to open That Pilates Place in Pontefract. While she has not ruled out a return to acting, she stated that her business is now her main focus.
