Yasmin Davies

Yasmin Davies (born 2005) is a British actress. She is the daughter of actors Alex Fletcher and Neil Davies. She has had roles in the television series The Tower, Maryland and The Gathering. In 2025, she appeared in Hollyoaks and Hollyoaks Later as Esme Dixon, the daughter of Jacqui Dixon, who Davies' mother had portrayed on Brookside. Davies has also filmed roles for upcoming episodes of Silent Witness and G'wed.

Early life Yasmin Davies was born in 2005. She is the daughter of actress Alex Fletcher, who portrayed Jacqui Dixon in Brookside between 1990 and 2003 and Diane Hutchinson in Hollyoaks since 2010, and Fletcher's husband Neil Davies, who was also an actor. After Fletcher gave birth to Davies, she did not work for a few years. Davies' parents met whilst working on Brookside, with their daughter explaining, "I heard so much about Brookside when I was growing up... Brookside is a big part of my family and who I am". Davies has a younger brother who was born in June 2016. Davies has also appeared in The Tower and The Gathering.

In October 2025, it was announced that Davies would portray Esme Dixon, the daughter of Fletcher's Brookside character Jacqui Dixon, in the special one-off crossover episode between Brookside and Hollyoaks as part of the latter's 30th anniversary. For that episode, Davies filmed with John McArdle and Sue Johnston, who portrayed Billy Corkhill and Sheila Grant, respectively. Both episodes aired on 22 October 2025. Davies "absolutely loved" being part of the episodes, adding, "There has been such a nostalgic energy on set, and I'm really looking forward to seeing it all come together to celebrate 30 years of Hollyoaks". Davies believed that Esme had similar traits to her mother and said it was possible that the character could appear again on Hollyoaks despite there currently being no plans for it. Laura Denby from Radio Times called Davies' casting a "perfect twist" due to Esme being Jacqui's daughter. It was also reported that Davies was filming for the third season of the television sitcom G'wed. Director Martin Smith praised Davies, saying, "Yasmin is such an exciting actor and a joy to have on set. I directed her in the upcoming series of Silent Witness in a challenging role that she embraced and shone in. A delight to work with, she is a real livewire and a talent to keep an eye out for. Not only a resourceful actor, she is a natural on the film set, and a real team player whose enthusiasm was infectious."
