Background
Jodie’s a wild child and arrives on her first shift at Holby ED hungover! Jodie likes to work hard and party even harder and she strives to keep the personal and professional separate… only life doesn’t quite work like that. When she discovered that her estranged father, Max, was also her boss, the lines between personal and professional became even more blurred. Still struggling from the loss of her mother, Jodie makes friends with her fellow nurses, Rida, Ryan and Cam – Cam who secretly has a crush on her.
Jodie makes a decision to leave Holby, finding it hard working alongside Max – who people firstly assume she is having a relationship with. However following an explosion at her leaving party venue, Max rushes to her rescue and ends up collapsing. Jodie realises that he does care about her.
In Series 38, Jodie meets Max’s mum, Stella, when she is brought in as a patient. Stella realises Max is ill and in need of a kidney transplant, but doesn’t want Jodie to know. Jodie later learns the truth from Stella and questions her motives for getting in touch. Jodie eventually offers to be a donor which Max at first refuses but realises it’s his only chance of survival. After the successful operation, Max decides to recuperate in Sudan leaving Jodie stunned.
Jodie also starts a relationship with Teddy, whilst Cam is heartbroken on the sidelines.
