Emmerdale actress Zoe Henry, 45, revealed she and Jeff Hordley, 48, who married in 2003, have their own allotment to help with the latter’s Crohn's disease. Crohn's disease is a lifelong condition in which parts of the digestive system become inflamed, as stated by the NHS. Zoe admitted while they grow their crops for a good reason, the couple’s two children Violent, 14, and Stan, 10, “hate it”. Revealing all on Loose Women, she previously told the panelists: “Jeff’s Crohn's disease… [he was] diagnosed at like 18 before I met him, when he was 23.
It's nice to show the kids as well but they hate it.

“It’s sort of changed our lives. There’s a lot about mental health and having your hands in the soil, it’s nice to show the kids as well but they hate it.”
Jeff, who plays Cain Dingle, also previously spoke out about the couple growing their own vegetables for health reasons.
He told the panelists: “It’s good for us to grow it.
“I have Crohn's disease, so I find eating from what we’ve grown is a good thing for me.”
During the same chat, Jeff said that the couple’s children get embarrassed if they are asked for a selfie in public.
Panelist Jane Moore quizzed Jeff about how his children feel about having two parents in one of Britain’s biggest soaps.
