Former Hollyoaks actress Twinnie Lee-Moore has revealed that her boyfriend split with her, but her latest single has climbed to number four on the iTunes Country chart. The country music star, who played Porsche McQueen in the Channel 4 soap, shared the emotional news with fans in a TikTok video, saying she had been crying all night.
Emotional TikTok Reveals Heartbreak
In the video, Twinnie, known professionally as Twinnie, said: 'I'm sorry if I look like s***, I've been crying all night because my boyfriend split up with me last night.' She explained that the demands of her music career, which involves regular travel between countries, made the long-distance relationship increasingly difficult.
'He's not a bad guy,' she said. 'I'm a music artist; we're always away from each other, we found the distance incredibly hard, and it's making him unhappy, and I don't want to make him unhappy.'
Chart Success Despite Heartbreak
Despite having barely slept, Twinnie woke up to discover that her single 'Wild One' had reached number four on the iTunes Country chart. 'I did wake up this morning after having no sleep, to find out my single is number four,' she told fans. 'It's in the charts… which is awesome.'
She encouraged her followers to support the song in the hope of pushing it higher, saying: 'If you want to help me run it up the charts, maybe we can get top three.' She also reassured fans that she wasn't planning to stay down for long, writing: 'I'm ok just kind of sad but I promise we are not going to be going back into heartbreak era!! We're gonna keep on dancing!!'
Fans Rally Around the Star
Her followers were quick to offer support, with one writing: 'Might be the right person; it could just be the wrong time.' Another fan commented: 'Sorry that life makes us choose between dreams, the ride of life is a wild one.'
Career Milestones and Soap Legacy
Twinnie joined Hollyoaks in 2014 as Porsche McQueen, the eldest daughter of Reenie McQueen and half-sister of Celine and Cleo McQueen. Her character was married to Lockie Campbell, with the relationship ending in tragedy. Porsche was also at the centre of a powerful storyline revealing that her stepfather Pete had sexually abused her when she was 15.
Her portrayal earned her a British Soap Award nomination for Best Newcomer, as well as an Inside Soap Award nomination in 2015. Since leaving the soap, she has built a successful career in country music, performing across the UK and America.
With 'Wild One' now at number four, Twinnie's music career continues to thrive, and there is no sign of her slowing down anytime soon.
