Gemma Atkinson is an English actress and former glamour model, born on November 16, 1984, in Bury, Greater Manchester, United Kingdom. She grew up in Greater Manchester and attended Castlebrook High School in her hometown, where she completed her GCSEs.
Atkinson gained national recognition for her role as Lisa Hunter on the Channel 4 soap opera Hollyoaks. Her portrayal of the troubled teenager made her a well-known face in British television. Following the success of the main series, she reprised her role in the spin-off Hollyoaks: Let Loose, which aired on E4 and followed Lisa's storyline beyond the original series.
After Hollyoaks, Atkinson continued to expand her acting portfolio. In 2009, she appeared as herself in the pilot episode of Plus One, part of Channel 4's Comedy Showcase. That same year, she played Ria Crossley, the girlfriend of a drug dealer, in the ITV police procedural drama The Bill.
In 2011, Atkinson joined the BBC medical drama Casualty as paramedic Tamzin Bayle. She appeared in 10 episodes during her initial run and returned to reprise the role in 2014. These performances further established her versatility as an actress in both contemporary drama and genre television.
Beyond television, Atkinson has demonstrated a talent for stage performance. She took part in various theater productions, including appearing as a lead in Peter Pan at the Manchester Opera House. Her work in live theater illustrates her range and commitment to her craft, both on-screen and on-stage.
Gemma Atkinson is currently in a well-publicized relationship with professional dancer Gorka Márquez, whom she met during her time on Strictly Come Dancing. The couple became engaged in 2021 and share two children together. Their relationship has often been covered in the media, but they have maintained a relatively private personal life outside of their professional endeavors.
In addition to her acting roles, Atkinson has made a successful transition from glamour modeling to more diverse media work, including fitness and radio. She currently co-hosts a popular radio breakfast show in Manchester and is a prominent figure in the health and fitness space, often sharing workout tips and lifestyle advice on social media.
