Emmerdale’s Charley Webb admits she feels like a ‘bad mother’ after missing school application deadline

Charley's son Bowie is due to start school in September

Charley Webb, who plays Debbie Dingle in Emmerdale, has admitted she feels like an “awful mother” after missing the school application deadline for her son Bowie.

The mum of three spoke on her Instagram story about the situation saying: “So Bowie is starting school in September and apparently yesterday was the deadline to get your application forms in for what school you want.

“Totally missed it. Had no idea it was yesterday. I don’t know how this has happened. I just cannot believe that I’ve missed it, I just feel like an awful mother right now.

“Has anybody else missed the deadline? I just want someone to tell me yes just so we can be in the same boat.

“But anyway it’s just a much longer process apparently if you miss it.”

Charley continued: “I just cannot believe that I’ve done that. January just feels like you just get over Christmas and then like two weeks later you have to have thought about what school you want them in.

“I mean obviously I want him to go to the same school as Buster but you know to me it just feels so quick. Anyway, hashtag bad mother.”

Bowie is Charley’s middle child, who turned four last month. She is also mum to nine-year-old Buster and Ace, who is nearly six months old.
