I Fought the Law star Sheridan Smith is said to no longer be friends with former Emmerdale cast member Charley Webb, whom she had been close pals with in recent years
TV star Sheridan Smith is said to no longer be friends with a fellow actor, with it claimed that they aren’t even speaking anymore. It’s reported that she “drifted apart” from former Emmerdale star Charley Webb despite having once been close pals.
Sheridan, 44, and Charley, 37, best known for her role as Debbie Dingle on Emmerdale, had been friends throughout 2023 and last year. They had enjoyed holidays and even spent last Christmas together with their respective children.
It’s however now been reported that their friendship quietly came to a “rather abrupt” end. Sheridan, who recently starred in ITV’s I Fought the Law, and Charley are said to have parted ways as friends earlier this year.

According to the Sun, it’s claimed that Sheridan and Charley are no longer speaking. Sources told the outlet that there was a shift in their relationship earlier this year and that Sheridan’s decision to move to Doncaster a few months ago resulted in the pals then “taking different paths”.
Charley is said to have been living with Sheridan after splitting from Matthew Wolfenden, with whom the former soap star shares her three children. A source said: “It was no secret that they had a very intense and fulfilling relationship, but then Sheridan decided to move house and Charley wasn’t really part of those plans.”
It’s claimed that Charley grew close to fellow actor Wallis Day around the same time and ended up “drifting apart” from Sheridan. The source said that the situation shocked friends because they had once been “inseparable”.
It’s reported that whilst Sheridan now lives up north, Charley is still “mostly” in London whilst auditioning for roles when not in Yorkshire with her kids. It’s said that she often enjoys nights out in the city in “contrast” to Sheridan’s life.
The source said: “It’s quite a stark contrast to Sheridan’s life now, she’s always so busy with work and raising her son.” They added that the Royle Family star has a “quiet life” with her family and is “really happy” being back up north.
It’s also reported that pals have questioned where a Pomeranian dog, who Sheridan and Charley are said to have got together, has gone. A source told the Sun: “The dog was always with Charley and also Sheridan – but no one has seen it for ages, they think he’s up in Doncaster with Sheridan.”
The source further teased to the outlet that Charley has some “exciting” auditions coming up. They however claimed that despite having the support of other loved ones, she won’t have Sheridan as her “cheerleader” anymore.
Fans had been given glimpses into Sheridan and Charley’s friendship over the years. It included the latter posting on Instagram about them enjoying a holiday abroad to Greece together during the summer last year.
More recently, they spent time together over Christmas. Charley shared various photos from the festivities, including one of herself with some of Sheridan’s family. Charley wrote: “Christmas 2024. Might have been one of my favourites.”
