EastEnders icon Jessie Wallace has delighted fans by sharing a photo of her seldom-seen daughter. Known for her role as Kat Slater on the BBC soap since 2000, Wallace quickly became a fan favorite with her portrayal of Kat’s dramatic storylines.
Beyond her on-screen persona, Jessie is a proud mother to daughter Tallulah Lilac, whom she co-parents with ex Dave Morgan. Recently, the mother-daughter duo enjoyed a relaxing spa retreat at Champneys Spa, with Jessie sharing heartwarming snapshots from their rejuvenating experience, showcasing their bonding time and indulgent treatments.
The post drew attention from Jessie’s fellow EastEnders cast members and fans, who were quick to point out the striking resemblance between Jessie and Tallulah. The comments section was filled with compliments on their similarities and beauty.
In a surprising turn of events, Jessie welcomed her first grandchild, SJ, in March 2022 at the age of 50 when Tallulah gave birth. Despite the unexpected news, Jessie has embraced her new role as a grandmother with pride, sharing glimpses of her life with baby SJ since his arrival.
EastEnders airs on BBC One and BBC iPlayer from Monday to Thursday at 7.30pm.
