Ackley Bridge is lining up an intense romance storyline for Nasreen Paracha – and this time it could be for keeps. But as she gets closer and closer to newcomer Sam Murgatroyd and falls for her, she makes a devastating discovery that could change everything.
Amy-Leigh Hickman, who plays Nas, recently revealed to Metro.co.uk that her character would get a genuine love interest – after a date with a footballer went nowhere and then she was catfished by her well meaning but misfiring mum!
She told us: You see Nas have a little bit more fun and loosen up a bit. She is becoming more comfortable with herself – she has to accept herself 100% before she tells everyone. You really see that progress – and further on in the story, she tries a few things out with dating that dont work out but someone comes into her life that is completely right for her and she ends up falling in love.
