Charley Webb won't quit 'Emmerdale' until her children are a bit older.

The 29-year-old actress - who portrays Debbie Dingle in the soap - has admitted she'd love to spread her wings and try something new in the future but, for now, she enjoys how easy her job fits around her two children Buster, seven, and Bowie, two.

Speaking on 'Lorraine' on Friday (19.01.18), she said: "I'd love to go and do other things and when the time is right, I will do but right now I'm really happy. I love it, I love all the people, I'm challenged every single day.

"While the children are little it really suits my life. I go home to my kids every single night and I don't think you can put any sort of price on that."

And it looks like fans will have her for a little while longer as she and her partner Matthew Wolfenden will try for another baby - preferably a girl - at some point in 2018.

Matthew, 37, said recently: "We'll start thinking about having another baby next year. We'd love a girl but I think we're destined to have a house full of boys."

The couple - who got together in 2009 and engaged later that year - spend a lot of time together as they live together and work together and, although bosses would like to see their alter egos get together, they've refused to have too many scenes together.

Matthew said: "They wouldn't be! They once told us they were considering it and we were the first to ring up and ask for it not to happen!"

Charley added: "It's too much - living with each other, working with each other and then being romantically linked in the show. Also, they are characters who wouldn't suit."
