Natalie Casey (born 15 April 1980) is an English actress, television presenter and singer. She is best known for her long-running roles playing Carol Groves in the TV series Hollyoaks from 1996 to 2000 and playing Donna Henshaw in Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps from 2001 to 2011.

Casey was born in Rawtenstall, Lancashire. At the age of three her single "Chick Chick Chicken" reached number 72 in the UK Singles Chart in 1984. This made her the youngest person ever to have a recording in the United Kingdom chart. At this time, she appeared on the BBC's Saturday Superstore and asked Boy George to take her to the toilet. In the 2008 live special of Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps, Casey performed the single for the first time in over 20 years.

She attended Oldham Theatre Workshop with longtime friend Antony Cotton who appeared in Coronation Street. Her older sister is actress Anna-Jane Casey.

Casey played Carol Groves from the first episode of Channel 4 soap opera Hollyoaks in which she remained for over five years. In 2001 Casey joined the cast of Two Pints of Lager playing Donna Henshaw alongside Hollyoaks co-star Will Mellor. Casey and Mellor were the only two original main characters to appear in all nine series. The final episode was broadcast on 24 May 2011.
