After 3 years away, viewers of the Channel 4 soap will finally get to see the comeback of a village resident, albeit in a different form. 3 The role of Faith Hudson was previously played by two twins named Elsie and Lyla in 2022. She is the daughter of soap regular Liberty Savage (Jessamy Stoddart) and was first seen on-screen in 2020. However, producers have now chosen young actress Lottie Tatton to take over the role and play the character. In recent years, Faith has been absent from the soap and the storyline had her being located abroad. She was supposedly staying with her uncle Denis (Joe Tracini) across the world in New Zealand. However, recent scenes revealed that Denis was killed off screen, and Faith had to return to the village for a reunion with her mum. Fellow soap star Tina O'Brien, 41, runs her own acting school, The Drama Mob. The institution shared a post on social media as it confirmed that its student Lottie has taken on the prestigious role. The post read: "A huge well done to our fabulous Lottie who has just made her debut on Hollyoaks playing Faith Hudson! "Lottie has been a member of the Drama Mob family since she was born - her mum Jenna is one of our amazing teachers!" Watch as Hollyoaks love twist is revealed It added: "We're so proud of her and know she's going to absolutely smash it! Well done Lottie!' It is thought that Faith might be in the centre of a forthcoming dramatic storyline within the serial drama. Her mother Liberty is set to become more and more entangled with serial killer Jez (Jeremy Sheffield) over the coming weeks. The Sun has contacted Hollyoaks for comment. Hollyoaks - cast member cull HOLLYOAKS beauty Chelsee Healey has dropped the biggest hint yet she's been axed from the soap - yet what's happening at the Channel 4 show? Earlier this year, the Channel 4 soap was forced to address the cull of cast members. It came after The Sun was first to report Hollyoaks bosses plan to kill off a whopping 20 cast members. Now Chelsee, who recently took time away from her role as Goldie McQueen to give birth to her second daughter, has now made a cryptic move on X. The Manchester lass, 36, re-posted a picture of her character crying to her page. It came after Stephanie Waring, famed for her 28-year-long role as Cindy Cunningham, confirmed that soap bosses had axed her as part of the 20-person strong cast cull. Another big name set to quit for good is popstar turned soap star Jamelia. The soap's resident hunk and TV favourite Owen Warner has also left the show amid the cuts with fans left devastated to say goodbye to his character Romeo Nightingale. Jamie Lomas has also quit the show and will depart his Warren Fox role soon. Haiesha Mistry famed for her role as Yasmine Maalik has also left after seven years. 3
