Chloe Bruce is a fictional character from the British soap opera Hollyoaks, played by Mikyla Dodd.

Actress Mikyla Dodd was member of Oldham Theatre Workshop under the tuition of David Johnson and through that she got an agent, who managed to get her the audition for Chloe.

[2] She impressed Hallows, when Dodd returned home from the audition she found out she had secured the role via a message left on her answering machine.

[2] Casting directors also chose Dodd because she was over-weight, an alternative character appearance they wanted to included in the series.

[2] Dodd made her first appearance as Chloe in the show's late night spin-off episode titled, Hollyoaks: Breaking Boundaries.

[3] In the book, Phil Redmond's Hollyoaks: The Official Companion, Dodd told author Matthew Evans that "everybody has had a dodgy sexual experience and everybody said 'I was just cringing' and that was how it was meant to be.

"[5] He tries to change his ways but eventually gets involved in criminal activities for a local gangster, Scott Anderson (Daniel Hyde).

Matt helps Scott circulate counterfeit money around the village and even pays for the wedding cake fraudulently.

[5] Chloe begins to suspect that Matt is involved in fraud when Tony Hutchinson (Nick Pickard) informs her the wedding cake money is fake.

They formed a close threesome, with the boys often enlisting Chloe to help them with money making schemes playing Mother Christmas when they started their own grotto.

She moved into Tony’s house and after a one-night stand with Alex Bell (Martino Lazzeri), but soon found happiness with assistant caretaker Matt.

For a time the relationship looked blissful, yet it went sour when Chloe began to have problems with her weight and self-perception and they split up.

Chloe had felt that Matt was her man as he was kind, gentle and forgiving, but she did not know was of his dodgy deals with Scott Anderson (Daniel Hyde).

Despite all this, Chloe still loved Matt but decided to move on from Hollyoaks by cashing in on the honeymoon tickets and going travelling with Izzy Cornwell (Elize du Toit).

Two months later, Chloe returned and was a more relaxed person as she helped Max, Becca Hayton (Ali Bastian), Ben Davies (Marcus Patric), Izzy, OB and many other characters of the show to get over their problems.

A reporter from BBC News noted Dodd's weight and dress size when she appeared on-screen as Chloe.
