HOLLYOAKS’ Alex Fletcher looks totally different after dying her hair red for Diane’s shock Christmas love triangle story.
The actress – who plays Diane Hutchinson on the Channel 4 soap – revealed her new hair as she hinted at her dramatic new storyline.
Alex, who appeared alongside co-star Nick Pickard (Tony Hutchinson), also said there is a big storyline coming up at Christmas.
Speaking on Steph’s Packed Lunch yesterday, the Hollyoaks actress said: “I keep looking at myself and going ooh, there’s me.
“It’s a big change. It’s part of the story. They were like, ‘do you want a wig or do you just want to go for it?’ I like it!”
Talking about the storyline, she continued: “Christmas is going to be big for us on screen,” before adding that “something major happens, but it’s kind of this love triangle, who she’s going to be with.”
In the soap, Tony is currently being drugged with testosterone by his evil dad Edward so that he can win over Diane.
The pair had a fling when Tony was being held captive by serial killer Breda McQueen last year, and it only stopped when Tony was revealed to have been alive.
Alex also spoke about returning to the set with the new social distancing measures in place.
She said: “They’re cheating a lot of the positions which we can do with a single camera.
“It’s been okay, you just can’t do any intimate scenes… Everyone’s making it work. You’ve got to.”
