Billie Piper isn’t afraid to get real. Throughout her career, the actor has repeatedly shown her commitment to showing life at its most real and honest.

From her award-winning performance on stage in Yerma to the ‘bare all’ approach she adopted for her Stylist guest-edit last year, Piper’s authenticity is just one of the reasons we love her so much.

And it won’t be long before we get to see that raw and honest approach once again, as Piper returns to our screens in the upcoming Sky original drama I Hate Suzie.

The show – which saw the actor reunited with Secret Diary of a Call Girl writer Lucy Prebble – will star Piper as Suzie Pickles, a former child star who finds herself at the centre of a scandal after her phone is hacked and compromising images of her are leaked online. The series follows Piper’s character over eight episodes as she processes what’s happened and navigates the rollercoaster of emotions that come with such an experience.

Billie Piper says her early 30s felt “like a journey back in time” for this relatable reason
