Brooke Kinsella Life

Brooke Kinsella (born 1983) is a British actress, writer, and anti-knife crime activist.

Kinsella, a graduate of the Anna Scher Theatre School, has been acting since childhood.

She has appeared on television and film.

Kelly Taylor, who appeared in BBC's long-running soap opera EastEnders from 2001 to 2004, was her most notable role.

True Stars Academy is she's own drama school. In 2008, Kinsella's family made national news after her half-brother, Ben, was stabbed to death in June 2008.

Hundreds of people marched in London after Kinsella's death over knife fatalities.

Personal life

When she was four years old, Kinsella's father was divorced from the family and she was raised by her mother Debbie and stepfather George, who Kinsella has referred to as her "tru father." She lives in Islington, north London, and is the oldest of four children; Jade and Georgia, her two brothers, and Ben.

Simon Boardley, Kinsella's long-term partner, married her on December 28, 2017. Kinsella gave birth to their first child, Elsie Rose Georgia Boardley, on September 22, 2020. Kinsella gave birth to their second child, Ben Ross Boardley, on June 29, 2022.

Ben Kinsella, his 16-year-old brother, was stabbed to death by a gang of three youths in a London street on 29 June 28, 2008. Ben, the seventeenth teen killed in London in 2008, died in hospital a few hours later. Kinsella said she was "devastated."

Hundreds of protesters marched against London's knife and gun laws following Kinsella's death. Three people were arrested with Ben's murder on July 3, 2008, and they were later found and convicted. In an attempt to reduce knife violence, Ben Kinsella's family founded the Ben Kinsella Trust in Ben's memory. Kinsella also expressed her support for the Conservative Party in the run-up to the 2010 general election, and she revealed that she would lead a commission that would determine how grants were distributed to non-profit organizations addressing youth crime.

An anti-knife campaign was launched in Birmingham's New Street Station, funded by the Kinsella Trust, in conjunction with the British Transport Police and Great Barr School's drama group from its Sixth Form center on February 23 and 25. Throughout each of these days in the station's concourse, a play was performed to the public to raise questions about knife crime's effect.

In the 2011 Birthday Honours for services to the prevention of knife crime, Kinsella was elected Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE).

Kinsella appeared in an episode of the BBC One series Defenders UK in December 2018 to discuss her brother Ben's assassination.

Brooke Kinsella Career

Career

Kinsella attended the Maria Fidelis RC Convent School in Camden. Kinsella's mother, who wanted to encourage her to pursue a hobby she adored, took her to the Anna Scher Theatre School at the age of 6, and she continued attending the Anna Scher Theatre School until she was 16.

She made her television debut in the BBC children's series Mud at the age of 7 and has appeared in a number of other television series, including Coming Home. In addition to appearing in an episode of the BBC series Sunburn in 2000, she appeared in Muse's entirely unrelated music video "Sunburn."

The Channel 4 film Kid In The Corner (1999), about a child with ADHD, and the controversial ITV film No Child of Mine (1997), in which she played a young girl subjected to systematic sexual abuse, have both been included.

In 2002, Kinsella appeared as Liz Chambers in ITV1's cop show The Bill, portraying a teenage runaway. Her character will be the first survivor of the original Sun Hill Serial Killer later this year.

Sophie Play at Soho Theatre (2001) and a rehearsed reading of Skyways by Barry Reckord at the Royal Court Theatre in 2006.

Kinsella had auditioned for the parts of Zoe Slater, Janine Butcher, and Sonia Jackson but was dissatisfied, before securing Kelly Taylor's role in EastEnders. Kinsella attended Buckinghamshire New University's first year in English, Media, and Drama before joining the cast of EastEnders. She appeared on the show for a brief period in 2001 before returning to it as a full-time cast member from 2002 to 2004. Brooke's character withstands prostitution, marriage breakdowns, and confusion about her sexual identity prompted by Michelle Ryan's character, Zoe Slater's lesbian kiss. The kiss was portrayed as cheap sensationalism in British media and branded as a ratings stunt. Louise Berridge, the one-time executive producer of EastEnders, made the decision to axe Kinsella's character in 2004 to allow more character development for her on-screen best friend, Zoe Slater; but Kinsella maintains it was a mutual decision between herself and Berridge. Brooke said in a Woman magazine interview in March 2008 that she would like to return to EastEnders at some point. Shakil Kazemi and Keegan Taylor's characters appeared in an emi and Keegan Taylor storyline in 2018.

In director Andrew Jones' film The Feral Generation, Kinsella and her real-life partner Ray Panthaki (who appeared in Ronny Ferreira in EastEnders) were a heroin-taking pair who appeared in director Andrew Jones' film The Feral Generation, which premiered at the 2007 Portobello Film Festival. Friendship Is A Funny Thing is a young girl from Los Angeles and is awaiting its debut in publication. In the Queen's Birthday Honours 2011, she was named an MBE for her work on knife abuse.

As a result of the current loophole, former EastEnders actor Brooke Kinsella has suggested that the government give women murdered in their homes every year more lenient punishment.'

www.dailymail.co.uk, March 25, 2024
Brooke Kinsella, 40, advocated for tougher prison sentences for knife murderers after her brother was stabbed to death in Islington, north London, in June 2008, just days after he was celebrating the end of his GCSE exams. She is now urging the government to close a loophole that is believed to be rejecting justice to hundreds of women who have been murdered in their homes every year. The government is considering getting rid of a 10-year gap in murder sentencing, which experts have characterized as one of the biggest'remaining open sores' of the justice system. A person who murders a victim with a knife is'sententified to the scene with intent' and now has a sentencing sentence of 25 years.
