Early Life and Education: Growing Up in England

Jennie was born into an English family alongside six brothers and sisters, in Walgrave Hospital, which is located in the city of Coventry in the West Midlands region of England. There is no available information on her parents’ names, nor do we know anything about their professions or locations. Despite being a celebrity, Jennie has successfully avoided any and all inquiries involving her parents and siblings. This is a clear sign of her professionalism, as she refuses to let anything from her private life interfere with her career. However, we do know that the Jacques family moved around quite a lot, as young Jennie spent a significant amount of time of her childhood in towns such as Leamington Spa and Warwick, for no apparent reason. Additionally, we are unable to find out whether she acquired her skills by attending a formal institution or if she developed the skills necessary for her career in some other manner. What has been confirmed, however, is that she matriculated from an unspecified high school in 2008.

Career Beginnings: The Bill, Desperate Romantics and More

Unlike most modern day stars, Jennie’s resume is devoid of any credits during her teenage years, so something of a late bloomer. Her first role was that of Katie Fielding in the hit ITV police drama “The Bill”. The series, filmed mainly in South London, follows the life of police officers dealing with crime in the capital city of Great Britain. Jennie played a seminal role in “Teenage Kicks”, a two-part episode, which experience allowed her to make a name for herself and kickstart her career. Almost immediately afterwards, Jacques assumed the role of Annie Miller in the mini-series, “Desperate Romantics” – set in 19th century London, it covers the life and struggles of England’s artistic elite at the time, with a focus on social circumstances characteristic of the Victorian era. She appeared in all six of the series’ episodes, garnering a great amount of attention and furthering her already solid reputation. In 2010, she appeared in an episode of “Lark Rise to Candleford”, taking on the part of Emily Mullins.

Continued Success: Shank, 7 Lives, Demons Never Die

After solidifying herself as a skilled supporting actress on television, Jennie decided to try her hand at movies. Thus in 2010 she was cast as Ree Ree in “Shank”, an action drama set in dystopian London. After several decades of anarchy and disarray, the city is run by gangs who incessantly wage war against one another. While the film wasn’t praised by critics, Jacques received rave reviews for her performance, as she proved to be sufficiently skilled to stay in character for an extended period of time. 2010 was a particularly busy year for the young star, as she made appearances in “Cherry Tree Lane”, “Stanley Park”, “7 Lives” and several other short films. 2011 was somewhat of a novelty year for her, as she appeared in her first slasher film – “Demons Never Die”, cast as Jasmine, and impressed with her candid performance and dedication to the role. At one point, she appeared nude during a sex scene involving herself and Robert Sheehan. Jennie Herself admitted that it was a shocking experience for her, but that she embraced the duties that were bestowed upon her.

An Established Star:  WPC 56, Father Brown and More

In 2013, Jennie was cast in “WPC 56”, as police constable Gina Dawson, the first ever woman to be a constable in all of England. The show follows the path that she took to get to that position, as well as depicting the discrimination and abuse she faced in the 1950s. Jacques appeared in ten of the show’s 15 episodes. This was her first lead role, and she excelled using her ability to convey emotions and correctly depict an important historical figure. Around this time, she was also cast as Violet Parnassus in the TV series “Father Brown”, and in 2015 take on the part of Tash in “Delivery Man”, a series about Matthew, a former cop who decided to become a midwife. Most of the show’s plotlines revolve around the discrimination he faces because of his gender, all wrapped up in a myriad of excellent jokes.

Jennie’s Magnum Opus: Judith in “Vikings”

While Jennie has had her fair share of great performances, none can match her role of Saxon queen Judith in the hit History show “Vikings”. Her character is actually an historical figure, a 9th century queen consort of Wessex and the daughter of Queen Ealhswith and King Aelle of Northumbria. Using her versatility, Jennie was able to successfully add flair to the show, as Judith was one of the most important characters in seasons three through five. Critics around the world praised her for her performance, in fact this is the role that brought her global fame, as she was mainly known only in Britain before appearing in “Vikings”. Given that her character won’t appear anymore. Jacques is currently devoted to her role as Amber in “London Kills”.
