Amelia Spencer star Daisy Campbell has been a member of the Emmerdale cast since 2011 and she has shared her impressive skill away from the ITV soap
Emmerdale’s very own Amelia Spencer, portrayed by Daisy Campbell, left fans stunned with her unexpected talent off-screen on Thursday evening.
The 21-year-old actress, who has been a fixture on the popular ITV soap since 2011, took to Instagram to share a monochrome video showcasing her salsa dancing skills. She playfully captioned the footage: “Lil bit of salsaaaa.”
Daisy’s impressive following of 84.6K didn’t waste any time in responding to her post, with many urging her to strut her stuff on the BBC One hit show Strictly Come Dancing. Comments flooded in with one fan exclaiming: “Strictly come dancing here she comes”, while another encouraged: “Get on strictly!”
Further remarks included: “Get this girl on @bbcstrictly immediately!”, “You should be on strictly come dancing” with yet another adding: “When u joining @bbcstrictly @daisycampbellofficial? ? ?”
In other reactions, one fan commented: “Absolutely Amazing @daisycampbellofficial @bbc @bbcstrictly”, and others echoed the sentiment with “You need to go on strictly xx” and “Strictly here we come” and “Strictly next year…?!”
Adding to the chorus of praise, Daisy’s Emmerdale colleague Lisa Riley, known for her role as Mandy Dingle, chimed in on the post saying: “Look at you babes!” accompanied by clapping emojis, reports Leeds Live.
It comes as Daisy’s character Amelia is part of an explosive storyline on the hit ITV soap. Recently, Amelia has embarked in a relationship with Tom King (James Chase), despite his abusive conduct towards his estranged wife Belle Dingle (Eden Taylor-Draper).
Fortunately, Daisy’s real life is far less tumultuous than Amelia’s. The actress frequently keeps her fans informed about her life on social media, where she often posts glamorous photos from trips to places like Ibiza, Dubai, and Paris.
Daisy, who was raised in Leeds and attended the Scala School of Performing Arts and Rebel Acting School, isn’t the only one in her family with an intriguing career. Her younger brother Finley once featured in a Sainsbury’s advert, while her sister Rhona is a national dance champion. She is believed to reside at home with her family.
The actress previously and candidly shared her experiences with dating, noting the challenges of not knowing if interest is genuine or due to her fame.
Speaking to The Sun back in 2023, she revealed: “I’m single. I do get a few boys chatting me up, I think everyone does when you’re out with your friends. And it’s a natural thing to worry that they’re only coming up to you because you’re on the TV. But I just want to concentrate on work at the minute, that’s my main focus. I’m a bit of a workaholic.”
Emmerdale airs weeknights on ITV1 and ITVX at 7.30pm with an hour-long special on Thursdays.
