While she's kept her romance with actor and writer Phil under wraps, she has spoken about him in the past, praising his 'kindness' in an interview with Shoutout LA. Describing him as her 'best friend', she said: 'He believed in me more than anyone else. I feel blessed that I had a chance to meet him. 'His kindness towards people and me was beyond, but I guess a part of kindness consists in loving people more than they deserve.' Carolina, who appeared on Hollyoaks for a number of months in 2021, portrayed Polish immigrant Katja. Her stint saw her act as an unsuspecting van driver of laptops that Warren Fox, Felix Westwood and Brad King had planned to steal. Amid their scheme, she was directed into a garage by Felix dressed as a policeman, however, she became suspicious of his identity when she noticed he wasn't wearing a stab vest. In his panic, Felix tied her up and placed her in the back of the van, however, a scuffle ensued and Katja managed to escape. She had jumped into the van to flee but in her hurry, she accidentally knocked over Maxine Minniver, leaving her unconscious. Prior to Hollyoaks, Caroline began her career in the theatre and was even nominated for a Best Actress award at the Los Angeles Film Festival for her role in 2020 short film Dream Catcher. Caroline's first major role was as Mariana in Line of Duty back in 2019. She's since gone on to become a Bollywood star, appearing in over 20 Bollywood films. Caroline has also become a TikTok and YouTube sensation in recent times, going viral in 2024 thanks to her GP Receptionist and Builder videos.
