Former Neighbours actress Holly Valance has publicly declared her support for Reform UK, indicating a shift in her political allegiance from the Conservatives to the emerging party. Valance, who has recently been vocal in her criticism of left-wing politics, made the announcement in light of the forthcoming general election. During an appearance on GB News, Valance expressed her admiration for Lee Anderson’s decision to defect to Reform UK, dismissing any notions of him being a turncoat and lauding his political stance.

Valance’s call for Nigel Farage to assume a more significant role in Reform UK underscores her belief in the party’s potential to surpass the Conservatives in the upcoming election. Addressing earlier speculation about her husband, Nick Candy, possibly voting for the Labour Party, Valance clarified that there had been a misunderstanding, confirming neither would support Labour.

The actress’s political pronouncements, especially her endorsement of figures like Liz Truss and Jacob Rees-Mogg, and criticism towards left-wing politics, have heightened attention on her role in political discourse. Her recent remarks and her encouragement of Farage to lead Reform UK reveal her active engagement and strategic interests in the changing landscape of British politics, particularly as the general election approaches.
