Lacey’s Stacey Solomon character on EastEnders
There has been a great deal of speculation over how Lacey’s long-running EastEnders character Stacey Slater will be written out of the soap while she goes on real life maternity leave. Many theorised that Stacey will end up in prison due to her involvement in The Six.
As a key character in EastEnders, Lacey joined the cast back in 2004.
In the two decades since, her character Stacey has been a part of nail-biting storylines that had audiences gripped. From drug abuse and abortion, to bipolar disorder and murder – no stone has been left unturned when it came to the famous Slater family member.
Preparing for third bundle of joy
Two months after sharing the news with the world she was expecting again, Lacey said she was preparing for the new arrival.
She told The Mirror she was excited to start a new ‘chapter’ with her growing family.
Lacey gushed: “I’m excited for all of us really.
“It’s like another chapter in our little story, yeah I am excited. There’s nothing better than a newborn and a newborn cuddle, so that would be lovely. Yeah, we’re really excited and we’re looking forward to it.”
“You take lots of photos of [your children], thousands of photos,” she added.
The star from the BBC soap continued: “I make [a photo book] for my kids every year, I make them a photo book of their year. I love sitting looking through photos, it’s nice that I do it for them, so I should be making three.”
Lacey Turner’s not concerned over sleepless nights with another baby
The now mom-of-three said she isn’t concerned about the lack of sleep she’ll be having now her third baby has arrived.
Instead, Lacey Turner is looking to the future with her new baby, and the bundle of joy growing up with their siblings.
She said: “I love this time of year and obviously we, you know, we’ve got a lot going on in our house but it’s going to be lovely.
“As the children grow older, it’s lovely. They change so much at this age and it’s lovely to see they’re going through their little milestones and it’s great.”
