Lauren Valentine is a fictional character on the long-running British Channel 4 television soap opera Hollyoaks.
She is played by actress Dominique Jackson.
Character history
Lauren Valentine is the illegitimate daughter of Leo Valentine who first arrived in the village with her mother Valerie Holden and her brother Danny on September 6, 2007. Valerie dropped them off at the Valentine residence and demanded that Leo looks after them while she sorts out her housing problems. Lauren & Danny were totally unknown to Calvin & Sasha, and it wasn't until she referred to Leo as 'Dad' that they realised Leo had been living a double life.
Arrival
Lauren Valentine likes purple and many cute things but also had a rocky relationship with Sasha at first. Later, when Fletch tried to win Sasha back with a song he wrote, Lauren helped Fletch write a better one. Later, when Sasha laughed at the cheesyness of the song and kicked him out, Lauren showed signs of starting to accept her new family when the two began slagging off Fletch. When Valerie decided to stay in Greece, Lauren and Danny were set to join her. However the two decided to stay in Hollyoaks. In recent episodes there have been hints of a relationship between her and new boy Newt. When Newt returns on the 28th December 2007 she receives a gift from him, her first gift from a boy.
Val's return and Newt
At the beginning of 2008, Val returned from Greece. Lauren wanted nothing to do with her, but Val persuaded Danny and Leo to give her another chance and let her stay in the Valentine house until she could get back on her feet. That same month, Lauren and Newt were accused of 'kidnapping' Tom. Before Tom went missing, he forgot to tell O.B. and Summer that he was going to return Newt's sketchbook, which Tom was staying long before Tom was actually reported missing. Newt and Lauren then gave him an Emo makeover.
She and Newt began to sit together in Geography. After she tried to 'cheat' in a geography test, she was held back, and given an after school detention every day of the week. Newt tried to stand up for her, but Russ Owen saw through his plan. Lauren and Newt then spread rumours about him around school.
On Thursday 6 March 2008, Newt and Lauren decided to have sex. Lauren wanted to have it in a graveyard referring to Romeo and Juliet and Newt told her he wanted it at her house. They both realized they weren't ready to have sex.
Lauren began working at Evissa, per Valerie's orders, after Carmel noticed her immaculately designed nails. Newt wanted Lauren to ruin the hair products because he hated Niall Rafferty. But Lauren decided not to.
Lauren was once attacked by Nancy Hayton in the village because Nancy thought that Lauren had made a call to the police saying that Newt and Nancy were having a sexual relationship. But Jake Dean made the call because he was jealous. Nancy had been helping Newt with school work because he has Dyslexia.
Lauren plotted revenge against Elliot Bevan when he broke his promise to help them with their studies because he wanted to see Sarah Barnes. Lauren overheard Elliot talking about his father, and along with a reluctant Newt, contacted him through an Internet message board and convinced him to meet them in the woods. Elliot expected to meet his father, and suffered a nervous breakdown when no one arrived. Elliot disappeared for several days and the guilt-ridden teens feared the worst. Their nightmare nearly came true when they discovered a body, only for the corpse to be identified as Sean Kennedy. When Elliot returned, Newt told him what had happened, and Elliot forced them to tell their parents.
Recently her mum (Valerie Holden) and Brother (Danny Valentine) left Hollyoaks
Lauren recently took Newts medicine in order to understand how he feels. Newt and Anita went round to her house because Newt was angry at her for telling Anita about his schizophrenia and found her really ill. Anita called the ambulance while Newt comforted her and told her he loved her. Lauren was banned from seeing Newt by Leo and when Newt came round Leo stopped him from coming in but Newt told her that he wanted to finish their relationship and gave her her stuff back. She was really upset but relieved when she opened her box of belongings and found that it was stuff about Eli and a note from Newt explained that she had to burn it so Eli would be gone forever and that him and Lauren shall stay together in secret. Lauren told Anita later on that she had a plan. She wanted Anita to pretend to be going out with Newt, so when Anita and Newt pretended to meet up, Lauren and Newt could meet instead. On New Years Eve 2008 Newt and Lauren slept with each other for the first time in Evissa. In January 2009, Newt and Lauren split up.
(Just so you know, Newt is a fittie and is single!!;))
Revenge on Anita
After Lauren and Newt used her, Anita began to fancy Newt and eventually they started going out.
In March and April 2009, Lauren began claiming she was being bullied because she was jealous of Newt and Anita. She put her head in a sink full of water in the toilets, walked out and claimed that Anita was bullying her. Newt, taking Lauren's word for it, then split up with Anita and told her never to speak to him again and began hanging around with Lauren again.
In April 2009, Anita having confronted and recorded Lauren, trying to get a confession about the lies, was pushed against a wall by her and threatened. Lauren told Anita that she hated her and would "destroy her" until Gaz appeared and told Lauren where to go.
