Tracy Beaker’s Louise star looks unrecognisable 20 years after role in hit show

TRACY Beaker star Louise looks unrecognisable 20 years after starring in the hit show.

The child star shot to fame for her role in the beloved kids' drama, which started in 2002.

It centred around Tracy - played by Dani Harmer - and other children at a care facility.

Chelsie Padley portrayed Louise from the tender age of 10, but these days she's all grown up.

Exactly 20 years on from her final appearance in the BBC show, Chelsie now has children herself.

She gave birth last year to a daughter called Goldie and recently celebrated her 33rd birthday.

Chelsie has left the world of acting and now focuses on fitness and lifestyle coaching business.

Recently posing for snaps on Instagram, Chelsie told fans: "3 is my lucky number so I’ve got a feeling this year is gonna be double lucky 🍀.

"Thank you SO much to everyone who’s taken the time out of their day to wish me a happy birthday, I really appreciate it.

"Swipe to end picture to see me really enjoy my first drink in 18 months."

Chelsie has ditched her memorable pigtails from back in the day but she still sports her platinum blonde hair.

Before turning her back on acting, Chelsie starred in 2011 TV series Tati's Hotel.

She also took part in a number of panto productions.
