Sammy's Princess Phoebe Meets The Tudors

Since leaving Emmerdale at the start of the year, Sammy Winward has not taken the usual career path of an ex-soap star. Instead of reality shows or rival soaps, Sammy has instead penned her first children's novel Princess Phoebe Meets The Tudors.

A keen fan of history and historical fiction, Sammy was inspired to write about some of the most famous women in British History to give her daughter some good role models as she turns ten.
