The English-Jamaican actress has a background in performing arts, having studied at Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts after a brief period at King’s College London. In addition to acting, she has also made impactful contributions to theater and television as a writer and singer-songwriter.

Born in 1990, Lecky grew up alongside her siblings. She was raised by her father, an electrician, and mother, a mental health nurse. Sadly, her mother passed away when she was only 19 years old. 

@movieweb Ella Purnell teases her new show Sweetpea, coming to Sky TV sometime this year. Here's the description: "Rhiannon escaped childhood infamy to lead a quiet life into adulthood working as an office manager and living with her boyfriend and dog. However a chance encounter with a stranger may reveal that her new life is not as quiet as it would appear." #EllaPurnell #Sweetpea #interview #tvshow #fyp ♬ original sound – MovieWeb

Despite her loss, Lecky gathered her strength and fully dedicated herself to her craft. Over time, she has established herself and is now recognized for numerous exceptional theater and television projects. Additionally, she has received several accolades to date.

With that said the 34-year-old diva‘‘ new role in Sweetpea is also remarkable. Alongside her on-screen partner Dino Kelly, she is sure to shine in this Sky Original thriller.

Here’s what Nicôle Lecky and her on-screen fiancé Dino Kelly bring to their roles in Sweetpea

In Sweetpea, Nicôle Lecky is a former school bully turned luxury estate agent. She managed to turn her life for the better. However, her attitude remains unchanged, significantly impacting the show’s main character.

Although Lecky’s character appears to have it all, there are underlying issues in her life. Like, her relationship with Marcus, portrayed by Dino Kelly, seems to be facing difficulties. According to Hello Magazine, there are deeper issues between Julia and Marcus than initially apparent.

Lecky as Julia is an ex-school bully to Sweetpea protagonist Rhiannon Lewis, played by Ella Purnell. Talking about Lewis as a character, she is an ordinary woman until she starts living a double life as a serial killer. 

As in the Sweetpea novel written by C.J. Skuse on which the whole series is made, Julia has a huge role in Lewis’s transformation into a murderer. Obviously, this story is also portrayed on-screen, and Lecky as Julia will have a huge impact on the show’s main character.

Julia’s bullying has a profound and lasting impact on Rhiannon, resulting in the development of anxiety and self-doubt. Moreover, the narrative illustrates how Julia’s actions during their youth have transformed Rhiannon into a timid and repressed individual.

When Rhiannon and Julia encounter each other again as adults, Julia’s patronizing demeanor reignites Rhiannon’s long-buried anger, driving her toward violent acts in her quest for revenge. Additionally, Julia’s character catalyzes Rhiannon’s explosive outbursts.

Julia’s role in Sweetpea is essential for understanding Rhiannon’s transformation from an overlooked woman into someone capable of extreme actions. Similarly, Kelly’s portrayal of Marcus is significant in the life of this Sky Original thriller’s protagonist.

Specifically, Marcus’ presence emphasizes Julia’s success. This further frustrates Rhiannon, who feels overshadowed by Julia’s achievements.

Eventually, Lecky’s character’s husband-to-be ends up losing his life to Rhiannon. Moreover, he becomes one of her three victims. However, the situation is far more complicated, as there is a significant amount of drama unfolding throughout the story.

After Marcus’s demise, Rhiannon and Julia are taken into custody, with Julia even fabricating a story to protect her former bully victim. She accuses her late fiancé of kidnapping. But to know the reasons behind her actions, one must go throughout the series.

In case you didn’t know, fans thought Lecky’s series Mood mirrored her real-life love story

  1. Nicôle Lecky wrote and starred in the series Mood, which earned her two BAFTA awards. She portrayed Sasha Clayton, a young woman facing the challenges of pursuing a singing career.
  2. Lecy as Clayton is obsessed with her ex-boyfriend Anton, played by Jordan Duvigneau. Many believe that this aspect of the story has some connection with Lecky’s own romantic experiences.
  3. However, the two-time BAFTA award winner clarified that Sasha Clayton’s fixation on her ex-boyfriend is not drawn from her personal experiences.
