Emmerdale star Gaynor Faye has revealed she loves working in her home county of Yorkshire - because she gets to spend quality time with her kids.

The Fat Friends actress has joined the ITV1 soap as feisty Megan Macey, and is now able to pick up son Oliver, 11, and daughter Lily, eight, from school.

She told Reveal: "My job has taken me all over the world, so the fact I can see my children every day is fantastic. I wake up in my own bed and go back to my own house in the evening - it's lovely.

"Actually, it's more than that. It's a real luxury!"

And Gaynor, 40, said she wouldn't go under the knife to preserve her looks.

"I'm an actress - I need to use my face and expressions so I'd never freeze them," she said.
