 Aside from the romantic theme in her storyline Ruby has been shown as an aspiring singer . Breeds is classically trained in real life and said she doesn 't mind singing on camera . Discussing this she stated : " When you 're playing a character you can hide behind them . I know it 's still my voice , [ ... ] I was more confident singing from Ruby 's point of view . Even though there was a storyline where she was terrified about singing in a school play , I wasn 't nervous at all . I had to try really hard to make myself feel nervous . " She revealed she had to play down her voice and make it " a bit cleaner " and a " bit more inexperienced " . This was due to the fact it was meant to be that she had never sung before – " I have to pull her back a bit . " She added the storyline was realistic because there are no set guidelines for discovering vocal talent .
