The honest answer? It depends who you ask.
If you ask the BBC website: Whitney is 32. If you ask the actress: Shona is 33. If you ask the fans: she’s been 25 for like ten years.
So next time you watch an episode, don’t stress about the math. Just enjoy the ride. Whitney will be young until the writers decide she’s not.
And honestly? That’s the soap opera magic. Ages are just suggestions. What matters is the gossip, the tears, and the dramatic exits.
She’s old enough to know better. Young enough to keep making terrible choices. And that’s exactly why we love her.
