Hollyoaks’ star Gemma Merna says she’s too busy looking after her dogs to have children.

My mum thought I was going to be pregnant by 14. She really did! I used to love dolls

The sexy actress - who plays beautician Carmel McQueen in the Chester-based soap -  loves being a mother to puppies Phoebe and Cole and has no plans top extend her family at the moment.

Gemma - who is busy planning her wedding to fiance Ian - said: "Phoebe’s a curly-haired Westie and Cole’s a St Bernard. They take up most of my time - it’s like having two kids. They like to play, but can be quite hard work."

Gemma also said she took the puppies names from her favourite TV show.

She added: "They’re characters from my favourite series, ‘Charmed’ - I love that show. Phoebe is named after one of the three witches. She’s nothing like a witch, though."

Gemma recently admitted she doesn’t want to have a baby until she was a lot older.

The 25-year-old beauty said: "My mum thought I was going to be pregnant by 14. She really did! I used to love dolls. I was the youngest of three. I'd like to have a baby, but not until I'm settled and in my thirties."
