Amelia is struggling (Picture: ITV)
Amelia (Daisy Campbell) has been scraping by the last few weeks since her dad Dan (Liam Fox) was jailed for killing her stalker with a single punch. Dan received eight years in prison for his actions, leaving the teen mum alone to fend for herself.
Now that she’s alone, Amelia has been struggling to keep up with her college while making enough money to get by, contemplating giving up her studies.
