[edit] Character History

When Jessica first arrived she couldn't be parted from her mobile phone (and her link to boyfriend Mark) but over time it seems she is drifting apart from her long-term boyfriend. When Mark turned up at the college Jess had to retrieve a letter she sent dumping him for Gilly Roach. The two stayed together until the letter finally showed up revealing all. Mark and Gilly battled for her affections when she was in hospital for meningitis but she couldn't decide between them, so she wanted to date both of them. She later dumped Mark and Gilly saying that it was unfair on both of them. She and Olivia Johnson protested about the fact that they were unfairly sacked at Il Gnosh, going to lengths such as a naked sit-in.

Her best friend, Olivia died in the fire which left her heart broken even though she didn't want to show it. She later befriended Kris and they have remained good friends.

She recently went up against Will for the position of Editor of HCC's school newspaper. She got the position by using Russ' social anthropology research on the class differences between the Owens and the McQueens as her article, which caused the pair to break up for a short while. She is often perceived as a snob, and probably is one.

Jess and her flatmate Kris have a turbulent relationship. Kris recently snogged a guy in front of Jess to make her jealous, and it did. They recently were locked in the flat bathroom together, and finally admitted their true feelings. They were just leaning in to kiss when flatmate Will opened the door.

In the 2007 Valentines day episode of Hollyoaks, after Kris stands up for Jess against Will, Kris tried to throw her out of his room by saying "I think we're done here." Jess then continues to slam Kris' door with them both inside, saying "We are far from being done." Before kissing him passionately. The two are seen continuing to kiss and falling back onto Kris' bed, which leaves the mind wondering. The camera then cuts to another storyline, leaving viewers wanting more and wondering if they will have sex and/or become a couple.

They do end up having sex and the it seems that in morning they are happy with what's happy until they begin to argue again! Kris later says to her (Infront of Will and Zoe) "No point giving me the cold shoulder 'cos after last night you obviously want me and after last night you'll never get me again"

In an emotional twist in the storyline, she fears for her health after Kris is tricked into believing that he is HIV positive after evil Will changed Kris's drug results. Jess goes for a HIV test and the test comes back negative.

Jess recently discovere that her father has been declared bankrupt, thus putting an end to her glamorous lifestyle and plunging her into the harsh realities of being a strapped-for-cash student.

She slept with Kris's brother Malachy, to make Kris jealous and get back at him for sleeping with Nathan.

Jess also helped Kris tell Malachy about his cross-dressing, bisexual nature. Malachy at first was disguseted but after speaking to Kris, ended up thinking that it was just a phase he was going through, although Kris knows differently. Jess and Kris also slept together again, but Kris admitted to Jess that he's only good for sex at the minute, Jess seems to be able to understand that and is continuing to support Kris.
