Speaking to the Daily Mail in 2017, Charlie said: “I learned fairly early on in my life to work with what I had, rather than wish I had something else. I was born with curly red hair, and all was well until I hit my teenage years. Everyone else had straight hair, and I spent ages trying to make my unruly locks behave.

But, by the time I was 17, I gave up and accepted my hair was always going to look a certain way.

“I had to tightly plait my hair to try to uncurl it. Within an hour, the curls would be back. But, by the time I was 17, I gave up and accepted my hair was always going to look a certain way.”

She went on to explain a screen test she did for Ground Force. However, she said there was “no image consultant or stylist to hand”.
