What did Joe Swash say about his sister?

Fans have often wondered what Shana has been up to after she finished acting.

And Joe shared an image that answered the question.

Showing a mobile coffee shop called Swash & Jones on his Instagram stories, Joe tagged Shana in the post.

Shana’s new venture is far removed from how fans remember her.

What was Shana in and who did she play?

Fans last saw Shana onscreen when she supported her older brother when he appeared on Dancing On Ice in 2020.

However, before that, Shana appeared in EastEnders the same time as Joe.

She played teen Demi Miller in the soap from 2004 to 2006.

Arriving on the scene pregnant, her waters broke in a school playground and she had to enlist Pauline Fowler to help her give birth.

Unfortunately for Demi, her story ended in heartbreak – she had to give her daughter up and then later became a heroin addict.

After reuniting with daughter Aleesha, but losing boyfriend Leo to the drug, she decides to make a clean start away from Albert Square.

“Little did I know the entire last two years has been some form of summer holiday.

“But I thought wait until summer in case he’s not allowed it in school. So we went and got it yesterday.”
