She found out Jade was still using, and her home was in a right state. Things didn’t get any better as she later found a young girl who was sleeping in a dog basket.
Confronting Jade, Dawn heard that the girl was Clemmie, daughter of their late friend, and Jade had promised to look after her.
Dawn soon realised that it wasn’t the right environment for a child and after a heated moment with Jade, she managed to get her out of her house.
It’s unknown if Jade will make a regular appearance on the show however we do know that this isn’t the first time the actress has been on an ITV soap.
