Keen to raise awareness of bullying, she lent her support to This Morning’s Be Kind anti-bullying campaign.

Viewers will know Bex has been subjected to all sorts of horrendous torment at the hands of bullies Alexandra and Madison.

Most recently, they smashed her beloved guitar as she watched on helplessly. Her supposed best mate Louise Mitchell just stood by and did nothing.

Speaking to Eamonn and Ruth, Jasmine told them her advice to Bex was tell someone.

“Tell Martin, tell Stacey, tell the school, tell anyone,” she urged, hoping other young people would speak out and put an end to their ordeal.

Viewers were full of admiration for the actress, who has been impressing them on EastEnders, but they were also stunned by how different she looked in real life.

Writing on Twitter, they heaped praise on her for both her sense of style, and her acting skills.

She certainly looked amazing to us! And she’s doing such a brilliant job with the bullying storyline too.

This Morning showed a clip of tonight’s episode in which one of her bullies, Alexandra, actually apologises to Bex. But Jasmine warned that’s not the end of it.

As things get even darker for the teen, the good news is her mum, Sonia Fowler, is set to return next week. But can she help her daughter?
