Character history

Jude was the self-centred, vibrant, and daring child of the Cunningham family. She led a colourful life, battling with drink and crippling debts. Jude seemed to be never short of luck, and yet something invariably seemed to go wrong with her fortune and life happily ever after. Jude began life in Hollyoaks studying fashion at Riverbank Collage but her academic life was short-lived, as she was thrown off her course for cheating. After this, she struggled to make ends meet and, due to her irresponsible attitude towards money, was declared bankrupt and left with massive debts to clear. As Jude became increasingly desperate for money, she began working as an escort, but finally gave up after a few bad experiences with clients. Just as Jude began to get her life back together, tragedy struck when her sister Dawn lost her battle with leukaemia. Jude took the news badly, turning to drink to get her through the difficult times. The love of Jude’s life was Lewis Richardson, but she lost him when he grew tired of her lies.

When Mr C’s shady cousin Benny arrived on the scene, Jude soon hooked up with him and started stealing cars to order. As she finally managed to pay off her debts, she bought into Parkers and it seemed as if life was starting to get better for her. As always, this was short lived for Jude as she struggled to repay Benny what she owned him. Things turned nasty when Benny trashed Parkers and, to cover her losses, Jude began makng illegal booze trips to France. However, this still did not bring enough money for the final installment to buy her beloved Parkers. Desperate to make a success of her business, Jude agreed to do one last job for Benny. She had to pretend to get married so that Benny could snatch an expensive piece of jewelry stored at a stately home. Unsurprisingly, the heist went wrong and Jude was left as the number one suspect. She was days away from being arrested by the police and had to come up with a quick plan. A desperate Jude had no choice but to leave Hollyoaks. She brought a dark wig, took Dawn’s passport, and bid farewell to her sister, Cindy. It was because of Jude’s selfishness and shady dealings that her relentless obsession with money was the ultimate cause of her downfall.
