Early and personal life edit

Wicks has mild dyslexia and OCD.[1] She started her career in television as a casting assistant on such programmes as Prime Suspect, Dalziel and Pascoe and The Ruth Rendell Mysteries, before switching to an acting career. She then trained at the Webber Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art from 1996 to 1998.[2]

Wicks married her Doctors co-star Tom Butcher in November 2005.[3] They got married at Berrow Court in Edgbaston, a location where they had filmed together on Doctors. In 2010, she revealed that the pair did not like each other when they first began working together. However, after their onscreen characters got together romantically, it meant they worked more closely and began an offscreen relationship.

She explained that she liked her home too much to move.[4]
