Tyler 'appearing on 'Hollyoaks' for family'

Rex Features

Bonnie Tyler has revealed that she agreed to appear on Hollyoaks Later because her nieces and nephews wanted her to take the part.

According to Wales On Sunday, the 58-year-old singer admitted that she had previously declined invites to feature on the soap before accepting a guest role.

Tyler said: "They've been after me for a while, a couple of years in fact, to do the show and I've always refused.

"I live out in Portugal a lot of the time and I haven't ever really seen it. I also really hate acting, I don’t even like making videos.

"But when my nieces and nephews started begging me to do it, I had to say yes. But I think it's the late night edition, so it might be a bit different to the normal show. It's not rude is it? It is! Oh no!"

Tyler also explained that she will be acting in a dream sequence as "some sort of guardian angel" on the soap.
