Who is Janine Duvitski?

Janine or Christine Janine Drzewicki as she was born, is 67 years old and hails from Nottingham.

An actress with a whole host of experience under her belt, Janine is no stranger to TV.

She married actor Paul Bentall and the pair have four children together, Jack, Albert, Ruby and Edith. Her daughter, Edith, is a vocalist in electro-pop group FOURS.

The English actress has had a long career in acting which has spanned across film and TV.

Janine is probably most recognised for playing Jacqueline Stewart in TV series Benidorm.

As well as Benidorm, she’s appeared in BBC sitcom Boy Meets Girl and Hospital People.

Janine played a small role in Dracula in 1979, appeared in About A Boy in 2002 and Angel in 2007.

Is Janine on Instagram?

No, it doesn’t look as though the actress is on Instagram or Twitter.

One of Janine’s daughters, Ruby Bentall, is on Instagram and shares the odd snap of her mum.

Although Janine clearly isn’t into social media, she has made several TV appearances in her time. In 2019, she’s appeared on other game shows with her Benidorm co-stars Tony Maudsley and Jake Canuso including Tipping Point Lucky Stars.
