Hollyoaks star Jorgie Porter sparks fan debate with Theresa and Darren idea

Hollyoaks star Jorgie Porter has sparked a debate among fans on Instagram after sharing an interesting storyline pitch for her character Theresa McQueen.

The actress posted a series of glam photos of herself alongside co-star Ashley Taylor Dawson, who plays Darren Osborne.

Jorgie captioned the pics: "Happy Friday everyone! If Darren and Theresa became a thing, what would we be called; Daresa? Or Therren."

Jessica Fox, who plays Darren's wife Nancy, commented on the post: "Excuse me?" while Ashley himself added: "You got me in trouble with the Mrs…."

Fans were also quick to shut down the idea, with one writing: "Love these photos but team Dancy all the way," while another added: "No thank you, we want no more drama between Darren and Nancy!!"

A third commented: "Excuse me leave our Dancy alone please and thankyou very much #teamDancy THOUGH Nancy VS Theresa I'm here for."

Jorgie joined the cast of Hollyoaks in 2008 before leaving in 2016 and returning to the role of Theresa in 2020.

Away from the soap, Jorgie recently revealed she was opening her own beauty salon named Porter's Parlour.
