Emmerdale's Charley Webb shares 'anxiety' at son having his long hair cut off

Charley Webb has shared her 'anxiety' at the thought of her five-year-old son Bowie having his long blonde hair cut off.

The 33-year-old Emmerdale actress has called out trolls previously, who have targeted her over the length of her son's hair, which is usually around shoulder length.

Charley, who plays Debbie Dingle in the ITV soap, shares three children with husband Matthew Wolfenden, who plays David Metcalfe in the same soap.

She took to her Instagram Stories to share her thoughts on the big moment that her son's hair will meet the hairdresser's scissors.

Speaking to the camera, Charley said: "I’m getting the boys’ haircut after school, I’m just waiting to pick them up and I’m so nervous."

She then takes a deep breath before continuing: "Really hate getting their hair cut as I always hate it for nine days.

"I hate change but it will be fine but Bowie wants to go short, so that’s what we’re doing, which makes me feel even more nervous…"

The Emmerdale star then revealed why she gets anxious before heading to the barbers.

She continued: "The hairdressers are one of the most stressful places I have to go to with the kids in my life because I really struggle with it and the hairdressers always get really stressed as I’m like ‘don’t don’t, not too much, don’t cut there, ooh, that’s too short.'

"They hate me - I’d hate me”
