Palmer played Albert Sqaure regular Bianca Jackson on the soap for decades, to the discomfort of her aspiring model daughter, Emilia Merkell. The 17-year-old is seeking to forge a name for herself in modelling, and was unsure of her mother’s choice of career when growing up. Speaking to Tatler magazine, Merkell said she was unsure of an acting career having grown up in an acting household.
