Sarah Jayne Dunn slams Hollyoaks for double standard as Owen Warner strips nude

Sarah Jayne Dunn has called out her old Hollyoaks bosses for showing male nudity on-screen, while her racy off-screen antics were not allowed.

The actress, 41, played Mandy Richardson on the Channel 4 soap for a whopping 25 years, but got her marching orders after she opened up an OnlyFans account.

However in recent scenes, Owen Warner – who is currently in Australia for I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! – was shown completely nude, even flashing his bare bum.

Fans had already called out the “hypocrisy” on social media, but now blonde beauty Sarah has joined in on the debate.

Sharing a grab of the moment featuring a shirtless Owen, who plays Romeo, Sarah said: “Interesting how male nudity is deemed appropriate/suitable by the company for their ‘youth audience’ but a female taking ownership of her own body is not.”

And it seems it got to her quite a lot, as her next story read: “Just a reality check in. I’m not always super positive and happy. This week I’m feeling pretty low and finding it hard to find the positives.

“I’m just taking every day as it comes and taking it easy on myself.”

On social media, fans were quick to point out the situation, with one saying: “Does anyone else think Hollyoaks producer is a hypocrite for axing actress Sarah Jayne Dunn who played Mandy for her online account when the show screen nudity like shirtless, and this evening’s first look episode Romeo was completely naked?”

And added: “It’s not just Romeo although he’s probably the best example. Almost every episode lately at least one of the male characters is shirtless at some point.”

Sarah opened up her OnlyFans to “take back control” of her own body – but it was also a welcome top-up to her income, as she confessed she “really struggled” on her Hollyoaks wage.

In her first week on OnlyFans, she raked in £7,200 – and earlier this year it was reported that she earns so much she no longer needs to take on acting jobs.

She currently charges $14.99 (£13) a month for access to her exclusive pictures.
