EastEnders star Jessie Wallace looked incredible after swapping her dark locks for a blonde do. The actress who portrays Kat Slater underwent a stunning transformation and shared the results of her makeover with her followers on Instagram.

The 52-year-old soap actress took to her page with over 214k followers to post a selfie. In the photo, she dons a colourful red blouse and rocks a smoky eye makeup look and hoop earrings. However, Jessie hasn't gone permanently blonde, opting to wear a wig instead.

Fans were in awe of her new look, with one person even comparing her to a young Madonna. They said: "Ooh it’s a yes from me, looking like a young Madonna xx" Another person added: "Omg you so suit blonde."

A third person commented: "Looks amazing, I've just watched a classic EastEnders and in one scene you asked zoe if you would suit blonde hair the answer is definitely yes xx." A fourth person penned "Nice photo and you look absolutely gorgeous."

The post comes after the actress was spotted on a night out alongside notorious road rage killer Kenneth Noye earlier this month. She was pictured at a bar and in a private box with the convicted killer as they watched Elvis Live on Screen with the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra.

The actress previously sparked a rift with senior bosses on the show when she was arrested for allegedly attacking a police officer outside a nightclub back in June 2022. A BBC spokesperson told the Mirror at the time: "Senior bosses have spoken to Jessie Wallace about the incident and issued a clear warning that this kind of behaviour is unacceptable and Jessie has expressed her deep regret."

On the show, viewers witnessed Alfie Moon come clean about his cancer to ex-wife Kat. The former pub landlord initially lied to her about his cancer after being diagnosed in August - and claimed he got the all-clear. But the truth eventually came out after Alfie got in a fight with Phil before the hardman was set to marry Kat.

The BBC soap is working alongside Prostate Cancer UK and Macmillan Cancer Support on the storyline. Executive producer Chris Clenshaw explained: "When we first embarked on this storyline we knew it was imperative that we worked alongside Prostate Cancer UK and Macmillan Cancer Support to take on and accurately portray such an emotional and pivotal storyline for Alfie, and one that many viewers may relate to.

He added: "Shane has thoughtfully portrayed the realities of being diagnosed with prostate cancer with grace and understanding. We hope that this storyline resonates with the audience and that we represent it as sensitively, and as accurately as possible."
