After stepping away from TV work, Jennifer opened her dance school, Jelli Studios.
The studios has launched the careers of BGT success stories Boogie Storm and The Greatest Dancer.
The website claims 'Jelli Studios provides elite intense Dance and Musical Theatre training for those wanting a long successful career in the Professional Industry of Performing Arts.'
The former soap star has been married to her husband Rob Tickle for 15 years after tying the knot in October 2009. The couple share three sons.
Jennifer and boxer Rob began dating in May 2008, and were engaged in October of that year while on holiday in the Maldives.
The following year they were married, with the ceremony being performed in Mauritius on 10 October 2009.
The couple, who live in Liverpool, share sons Bobby, 16, Harry, 12, and Charlie, 11. Jennifer also has two stepdaughters, Chloe and Sophie.
Jennifer's youth was anything but peaceful, after she became involved with a Liverpool gangster named Anthony Richardson who was later jailed for a vicious sword attack.
During her relationship with Tony, Jennifer feared for her life on more than one occasion, including one time when she was forced off the road by a rival gang.
Jennifer explained how she was living 'parallel lives' during her early fame as a star of Liverpool-based Brookside, while also dating Tony, who was linked to criminal underworld figures.
Years after being beaten and abused by her ex-boyfriend, Jennifer revealed she has finally come to terms with her violent past and is grateful that she managed to escape a life which saw her home shot at.
The Liverpool native now typically stays out of the spotlight, but did make a TV appearance in 2022 where she appeared on Celebrity SAS: Who Dares wins.
Jennifer described it as the 'best therapy ever' as she came to terms with her past relationship during her experience on the programme.
The actress met Tony when she was 16, they got together a year later and within 12 months they were engaged.
Back in the late 90's at the height of her fame - Jennifer was dragged into the criminal underworld in her hometown of Liverpool.
She found herself witness to violent incidents from fire-bombings to drive-by shootings and confessed that her cheating fiancé battered her during their six-year relationship.
Tony was later jailed for eight years in 2011 after being convicted of a sword attack in Liverpool.
During an episode of the Channel 4 hit - Jennifer broke down to Commando Jason 'Foxy' Fox admitting her life with Tony left her feeling worthless.

Reflecting on her traumatic past Jennifer told The Mirror: 'It was a volatile relationship and he was connected with this other world, this gangland world.
'For years and years I thought that life was normal and bad things like that happened to everyone because it happened in the world I was in. I was having nails in my letter box, going into hiding and fearing for your life walking down the street. That's not normal.
'I look back and think how it was so traumatic. It was so horrific what I was going through. I was such a young girl, I was a baby.
'I feel like opening up in the mirror room about that has put that part of my life to bed. It was like the best therapy session ever.'
She described the experience as 'crazy' and it 'takes over your whole body.'
She admitted she was left 'in awe' as she battled through the emotions and changed for the better while crediting the show for building her back up again.
The relationship ended when Jennifer discovered Tony was cheating on her with John Terry's ex-girlfriend Shalimar Wimble, which she describes as her 'get out of jail free card'.
Jennifer believes she has been left with PTSD after the traumatic seven years she spent with Tony, but is grateful for her life now.

She's All That icon Rachael Leigh Cook debuts shock new romance with 2000s action hunk
Rachael Leigh Cook has officially debuted her new budding romance with a 2000s action hunk as the pair were seen enjoying a date night in LA on Friday. The 45-year-old She's All That star was seen sweetly holding hands with fellow actor Brandon Routh, who leapt to fame after portraying the iconic Man of Steel in the 2006 film Superman Returns. The two stars enjoyed the low-key outing together as they stopped by a crowded movie theater to catch a screening. Rachael and Brandon, also 45, flashed cheerful smiles during their nighttime excursion, and at one point the beauty was seen sweetly resting her hand on his back. The actress — whose divorce from Daniel Gillies was finalized in 2021 — was effortlessly chic in a pair of light-blue denim jeans and a black cropped blazer. She slipped into a pair of closed-toe white pumps and carried a small gold handbag. Her brunette locks were parted in the middle, and fell down naturally to brush the tips of her shoulders. Brandon kept it stylish casual in a black button-up, as well as a pair of black jeans and comfy sneakers. While it is not known when the couple first sparked up a romance, in February they were pictured stopping by the restaurant HomeGrown in Des Moines, Iowa. The eatery shared a snap of the two actors on its Instagram page as they posed with a couple of staff members. The caption read: 'It's a bird… it's a plane… it's Brandon Routh! Superman and Des Moines' own Brandon Routh stopped by Crescent to fuel up before fighting for truth and justice… with kindness, of course. 'Also visiting us today, the one and only Rachael Leigh Cook. From Hollywood to Hallmark, She's All That in our book, and what a treat it was to welcome her to DSM today.' Rachael is known for her role in the 1999 rom-com She's All That, which also starred Freddie Prinze Jr., Matthew Lillard and the late Paul Walker. She also took on a leading role in the 2001 cult classic Josie And The Pussycats, as well as Netflix's Love, Guaranteed (2020) and He's All That (2021). The actress was previously married to Daniel Gillies from 2004 until their separation in 2019. Two years later, their divorce was finalized. Since then, they have continued to co-parent their children Charlotte, 11, and Theodore, 10. Following the split, Rachael revealed that she is still 'totally open' to marrying again in the future. During a 2022 interview with People, she explained, 'I am the most incorrigible full-tilt romantic you have ever met in your whole life, to the point that it's probably unreasonable. So yeah, totally open to that happening again.' However, Rachael added that she 'will be slightly more cautious in making that decision because I have kids involved and such in my life now. But I wouldn't say no.' As to whether she wants to expand her family in the future, the actress admittedshe isn't certain. 'I gotta watch out for my own spontaneous side, and I gotta make that decision with eyes wide open,' she said Rachael continued, 'And my boyfriend has to realize how totally insane kids can be, I think, in person a little bit more before we can think about making that step.' Brandon was previously married to the actress Courtney Ford, but she filed for divorce in January after 17 years of marriage. The Dexter star cited 'irreconcilable differences' as the reason for the separation and requested for joint legal and physical custody of their son Leo, 12. At the time, the former couple shared a statement about the split, saying: 'To everyone who has loved and supported us, we have some personal news to share. 'After 21 years together, and 17 years of marriage, we have decided to begin a new journey, and enter this next chapter of life as friends and co-parents.' The pair added, 'We are now and forever rooting for each other as we move through this wild adventure called life. Our son is, and will always be, our highest priority, and we appreciate your understanding as we navigate this transition.' Brandon is not only known for portraying an iconic superhero, but he has also appeared on the big screen in movies such as Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World (2010). On television, he's known for roles in shows including Arrow, Chuck, The Rookie, The Flash and Legends Of Tomorrow. Rachael and Brandon are also no strangers to appearing in movies for the Hallmark Channel. At the time, the former couple shared a statement about the split, saying, 'To everyone who has loved and supported us, we have some personal news to share' The actor has played leading characters in movies such as The Nine Lives Of Christmas, as well as The Nine Kittens Of Christmas. Rachael has also starred in Hallmark television movies including Summer Love, Autumn In The Vineyard, Frozen Love and Rescuing Christmas. The pair are expected to attend Christmas Con later this year in New Jersey, which will take place from December 12-14. Rachael and Brandon were initially slated to attend the event last year, but both dropped out due to scheduling conflicts.

Why Is This £56 Jacket Ideal For Rainy Summers? Kendall Jenner Is In On The Secret
There was a time when even the most fashion-forward editor considered wearing activewear for anything apart from your actual workout an unthinkable faux pas. However, athleisure now comes runway approved with brands including Miu Miu, Loewe and Wales Bonner signing off on track jackets for this season. I'll admit, I was still sceptical about sporty clothing and its wearability outside of the gym. That is, until, I spotted Kendall Jenner wearing a comfortable sweatshirt from Adanola. The Manchester-based brand has been making waves with its minimalist activewear sets and cult-favourite leggings over the past few years, collecting an array of It girl fans including Emily Ratajwokski, Bella Hadid and its newest ambassador, Kendall Jenner. Since her collaboration with the athleisure label back in January this year, the brand has featured in many of the model's chic off-duty looks – and her latest look is no different. While driving through Wyoming's Grand Teton National Park, Jenner kept her look effortlessly casual in Adanola's Waffle Full Zip Funnel Neck Sweatshirt in a soft light grey melange. She styled the sweatshirt with Adanola's Ultimate Ultra Crop Shorts in black, layered over the brand's V Neck Strappy Vest Top, which is now nearly sold out, with only two sizes remaining. Much like the strappy vest top, the light grey melange sweatshirt is running low on stock, but you can still get the exact jumper in a rich chocolate mocha brown. Lightweight and easy to wear, the funnel neck sweatshirt makes for the perfect layer to fight off the breeze, especially as summer evenings turn cooler. As for the shorts, they're still available in all sizes except XXS and come in a variety of ten colours, from vibrant orange to classic navy blue. So, whether you take notes from Jenner with an all-over sporty look, style the jacket with a midi dress and trainers, or with your favourite inky blue jeans and a sleek white T-shirt, it's sure to be a winner. Shop her outfit below, from head to toe. 1. Waffle Full Zip Funnel Neck Sweatshirt - Grey Featuring intricate waffle detailing, Kendall Jenner's exact sweatshirt is incredibly comfortable, but is selling out rapidly. 2. Waffle Full Zip Funnel Neck Sweatshirt - Brown Alternatively, if you don't want to miss out, opt for the brown iteration that'll work well for the autumn months ahead. 3. Ultimate Ultra Crop Short Just like the Ultimate Leggings loved by Jenner herself, these ultra-cropped shorts come in a range of colours in sizes XXS to XXXL. 4. V Neck Strappy Vest Top Mostly sold out, this strappy v-neck top is an excellent wardrobe staple that'll look brilliant whether worn to the gym with leggings or to brunch with wide-leg jeans.
