Inside Lacey Turner's life from EastEnders journey to motherhood struggles


Lacey Turner has portrayed Stacey Slater in EastEnders for nearly two decades, but her life off-screen is a world away from the turmoil and drama of Albert Square.

Her character Stacey has been at the heart of some intense storylines recently, including her challenges as a single mum, dealing with financial difficulties, and a shocking romance with her mate Theo, which took a sinister twist when he turned out to be her stalker. Lacey Turner, best known for her role as Molly Dawes in the BBC military drama Our Girl from 2013 to 2014, has received heaps of praise for her acting chops. However, others are hoping for a quieter exit, suggesting that Stacey might leave to look after a family member, showcasing the soap's knack for blending actors' real-life events into their on-screen storylines.
