Charley Webb's famous family with soap star brother and makeup artist sister

Charley Webb is blowing out 33 candles on her birthday cake this Friday, enjoying a low-key celebration at home with her family.

The mum-of-three, who is married to her Emmerdale co-star Matthew Wolfenden, rose to fame at the age of 14 playing the long-running character of Debbie Dingle.

No doubt, Charley’s famous siblings, such as actor Jamie Lomas, will be picking up the phone to wish their sister a happy birthday.

To mark the occasion, Daily Star has done a deep-dive into Charley’s family life, looking at the dazzling creative careers led by her siblings.

Below is everything you need to know about the talented Webb-Lomas family.

Brother Jamie Lomas

Hollyoaks fans will know Jamie Lomas as the infamous hard man Warren Fox, who has been a major presence in the Channel 4 soap since 2006.

Charley’s older brother, Jamie, 45, is very close with his little sister, even giving her away at her 2018 wedding.

While Charley is famed for her work on Emmerdale, Jamie has also enjoyed roles as Jake Stone in EastEnders and Jeff Durkin in Coronation Street.

The soap star siblings occasionally pose together on the red carpet at industry events, having forged a career as two of the biggest actors in soapland.

Jamie previously hinted he’d like to appear alongside Charley on Emmerdale, last year telling The Sun: “I would love to work with Charley.

“She’s such a great actress. There was nearly a point in Emmerdale where something nearly happened, but it never ended up coming off.”

Around the same time, Charley shared a throwback picture from their childhood, branding Jamie as “ridiculously overprotective” in the caption.

Wishing him a happy birthday, she said: “It’s my big brother’s birthday today.

“The most ridiculously overprotective big brother there is. Literally drives me mad everyday but I do love him.”

Sister Cassie Lomas

With her siblings dominating in soapland, MUA Cassie has successfully carved her own path in the world of cosmetics.

The makeup artist has painted the faces of some of pop’s biggest stars, working with the likes of Lady Gaga, Selena Gomez and Rita Ora over the course of her glittering career.

Cassie runs her own namesake makeup academy, which is based in Manchester, and also has a range of cosmetic brushes.

Often helping her sister out with a glamorous makeup look, Cassie and Charley are best friends as well as siblings.

Marking Cassie’s birthday a few years ago, Charley mused: “You can’t chose [sic] your family but if Cassie wasn’t my sister I’d definitely choose her. Last year, I went away with all my best friends and Cassie.

“Not everyone knew each other really well but we’ve all become the best gang. I feel so genuinely lucky to be able to call my big sister my best friend.”

The actress added: “Love you beyond words.”

Mum Helen Webb

Charley is very close to her mum Helen, who always “taught her to be kind”

Charley has an incredibly close relationship with her mum Helen Webb, especially following the tragic death of her dad in her teens.

The soap star has praised Helen, who celebrated her 70th birthday last year, for taking on the role of two parents throughout her childhood.

In a tribute to Helen last year, Charley said: “She had to take on both roles whilst also grieving the loss of her husband.

“I’ll never forget how strong she was for us all. I started working 6 weeks after we lost him and she was there every step of the way, encouraging me to follow my dreams and be the best person I can be.”

Charley credited her mum with instilling the values of kindness and generosity in each of her children, adding: “She’s always taught me to be kind and treat others the way you want to be treated.

“I wouldn’t be the person I am today without her xxx.”

Husband Matthew Wolfenden

A real-life Emmerdale love story, Charley and Matthew met on the set of the ITV show back in the noughties.

They struck up a romance behind the scenes in 2007 and went on to welcome three sons to the world – Buster, 10, Bowie Grey, five, and Wolf, one.

During Charley’s 30th birthday party, the couple stunned their guests when they turned around and revealed it was actually their wedding party.

The surprise ceremony took place in early 2018, with the lovebirds tying the knot before 100 guests at the grand old Ripley Castle in Harrogate.

Cheering on the happy couple, many of their Emmerdale co-stars were in attendance, including Lucy Pargeter, Roxy Shahidi, Zoe Henry, and Emma Atkins.

Just as loved-up today, Charley and Matthew occasionally pay tribute to each other on social media, sharing family photos with their fans.

When Matthew celebrated a milestone birthday last year, his wife wrote: “Someone’s joining the 40’s club. Him, not me. Matthew was 27 when we first got together. 3 kids later and a marriage. Love you, C, B, B & A.”

And, marking Valentine’s Day in 2020, Matthew paid homage to his leading lady, sharing a paparazzi snap from the beginning of their romance.

He said: “3 years ago, to present day… and then they’re we’re 5!!

“Happy Valentine’s Day to my beautiful wife, my best mate and best mum in the world @miss_charleywebb . Love you so much.”
