Meanwhile, Stephanie told the Mirror she was “over the moon” to be coming back to Hollyoaks.
She added:
“I’m over the moon to be given this amazing opportunity and so excited to bring feisty Sinead back to Hollyoaks.
“I can’t wait to see all the cast and crew there, many that I have known for years.
“I just want to get stuck into learning my first scripts I can’t wait to be on set and back acting again, which is my passion.”
The actress was written out of the Channel 4 soap in 2015 after bosses terminated her contract with “immediate effect” amid reports of her behind the scenes conduct.
Stephanie originally joined the Hollyoaks cast as Sinead in 2010 alongside alongside her father Rob, stepmother Diane and brother Finn.
