In an emotional Instagram post, the star – who is best know for playing Bianca in the BBC soap – wrote: “Yesterday I became very overwhelmed whilst having dinner . I didn’t say anything because my little boy was sitting there and like any of us we want to keep happy so that the kids do not become scared at this time .

“It past but then I thought how that moment can get us from nowhere . I went out panic buying , then I felt bad so I donated to @feedingamerica for the foodbanks so that it helps everyone eat .

“I cried in Costco as I thought of the people that are pressured to buy food & essentials Incase of a lockdown , but what if they don’t have money and are completely overwhelmed with fear that can have a knock on effect mentally for them and their children .
