Bel set up her beauty salon, MirrorBel, in her 20's but hung up her beautician apron for good when she had kids eighteen years ago.

Mother to twins Lexie and Tyler, Bel is grounded and reliable, has an excellent business head, and is the sensible one in her crazy family.

Polly Walker believes her role in Age Before Beauty is one that will strike a chord with women:

"Bel is the heart of the piece, she is strong, but she is also weak. Bel represents lots of women who have given up careers to look after children or families, and then due to circumstances she is forced to re-evaluate everything, including herself. It feels very apt for me, at my age, to be playing this part."

Polly reveals a little about the tumultuous journey Bel goes on throughout this series:

"After taking her teenage children off to university, Bel begins a brand new life without being at the beck and call of everybody else. Initially, she feels a little lost but she is soon roped into helping out at her family beauty salon. As the most business-savvy member of her family, Bel was about to launch her own beauty product range but she gave it all up to raise her children, which she was happy to do. However, feeling her role of older sister strongly, Bel has a fervent sense of loyalty so she agrees to return to help out, temporarily.

"It is all fine until something happens that completely rocks Bel’s world. It is a momentous event in her life, to find out that the man she has loved and sacrificed things for has betrayed her. Up until this moment Bel and her husband, Wesley shared a good relationship. As far as she was concerned, she felt happy and they had settled into a routine after 20 years of being together. She trusted him with her life but she doesn’t recognise him anymore. So she rethinks everything."
