Who is Adele Silva?

Adele Silva was born on the 19th November 1980 in Croydon, London, England. She is an actress, television personality and sometime glamour model. She was educated at the Sylvia Young Theatre School and has been on stage and television since she was a child. She is best known for playing the role of Kelly Windsor in the television soap opera Emmerdale. She first played this role from 1993 to 2000 before returning to the soap in 2005. Her plot lines have been amongst the most daring in the soap opera, including a semi-incestuous relationship with her step-brother and running off with one of her school teachers. When she returned in 2005, she promised to be the “biggest bitch” in British soap history. She has appeared in men’s magazines like Front, Maxim and FHM, sometimes alongside her friend and fellow model Jakki Degg. It is known she had breast implants during her period away from Emmerdale as she commented on them in a 2005 issue of FHM. She is leaving Emmerdale in late 2007 to pursue other roles but has promised fans that she will return to play Kelly in late 2008. She appeared in the third series of Hell's Kitchen where she came second to Barry McGuigan.
