Natalie Cassidy mentioned in an interview with Heart FM that Naomi's mum was due to join the square. So according to the bbc website she will be called Grace Julien!

Who do you think will play her or has she already been cast? Diane Parish was announced as a new character last week but n o character name was given, but it did say she would be linked with the Wicks family.

Which actress would u like to play Naomi Julien??

Erm, ryan.adolpho? In case you hadn't noticed there is someone who plays Naomi Julien. Her name's Petra LeTang.
I think you mean Naomi's mum! Erm, I think Gina Yashere would be cool, but she doesn't look that old! Maybe Missy Elliot! Haha! I can imagine that!

Naomi: Mum?

Missy Elliot: Yea-a! Get Yo Freak On! Get Yo Freak On!

If they bring in a sister for Naomi, they should get Shaznay Lewis! She's the best!

I think her mum should be played by the major A-list celebrity Floella Benjamin. She was great on play school.

Or maybe Rusty Lee!

There's the actress who played Dusty in Family Affairs also. She would be of the right age.

I hope she doesn't bring a whole family with her, I dont like Naomi so how long is she going to be staying for?

yeah i was hoping she'd fade away too...

I dont understand what there is to dislike about her. She has barely been on screen. She doesnt bother me either way yet.

I'm still giving Naomi time but she really hasn't impressed me yet. She's been there since August so she has no excuse. Both Joe and Dawn have done a fantastic job in a shorter time.

Oops, sorry!

DOH!!

Well it defiantely isn't going to be Diane Parish according to the Mirror today. She arrives on the square alone and then quickly becomes associated with Kevin Wicks, a love interest!!
