Lorraine, who shares Nancy with her partner Mark Perez, flashed a beaming smile while dancing away with the sprog. The soap star has been putting her new physique on full display in recent times. Just last month, she sported a slimming flower print crop top and trousers combo as she partied the night away at a special bingo event. Underneath the tied top, she donned a skin-tight white vest which only emphasised her tiny waist. For shoes, Lorraine opted for complimentary open-toe leather platform strapped heels for the occasion. Alongside flaunting her physique, the star also opened up on a huge new milestone in her life. She captioned the snap: "5 months sober & still had a good night dancing! #Sobriety." The TV star also told how her changing figure was not down to popular weight loss jabs like Ozempic or Mounjaro. Instead, Lorraine opted for a gastric sleeve operation. EastEnders star Lorraine Stanley stars in very racy new film featuring full-frontal nudity One inquisitive fan on TikTok asked for Lorraine's secret, to which she simply answered back in the comments: "Gastric sleeve." A gastric sleeve is a weight loss procedure that removes a significant portion of the stomach, creating a smaller, sleeve-shaped pouch. The actress was written out of Eastenders in 2023 after seven years on the show in a huge shock to fans. Her character's axing was as part of a shock cast shake-up and her final scenes were aired in December of that year. She went onto reprise her fan-favourite role a number of times in 2024 before her last episode hit BBC screens in June. 4 She has been wowing fans online with her new look Credit: Instagram 4 The ex EastEnders actress has lost five stone Credit: Instagram / @lorraine_stanley_

Shock exit for ANOTHER EastEnders character as he risks marriage to flee abroad
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) EASTENDERS has waved goodbye to another character in a shock exit in today's episode. The BBC soap has only just seen returnee Zoe Slater leave three days after her comeback - and now another member of the family is off to find her. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 2 Alfie is off to track Zoe down without Kat knowing Credit: BBC 2 Kat is trusting Alfie to go to Australia - and she has no idea he's lying to her Credit: BBC With Stacey telling Alfie that Zoe has done a moonlight flit to Barcelona on her credit cards, he came up with a plan. Telling her not to cancel them, he said they could track where she was with it and find her to bring her home for a reunion with her mum Kat. But with Alfie unable to tell Kat where he was really going, instead he lied and claimed he was going to Australia to see his brother Spencer who was struggling. And it's EastEnders, it's likely that Kat will discover his lies and jump to the wrong conclusion, putting their marriage at risk. It comes just a day after Zoe fled to Barcelona, after her brief return scenes. The BBC soap has confirmed that Michelle will return later this summer for a permanent comeback. EastEnders new boss, Executive Producer Ben Wadey added: 'Before I even stepped into the role, Zoe Slater was on my wish-list of returnees as, although we haven't seen her on screen for twenty years, her character has transcended time due to her popular storylines.' Speaking on her return to the BBC soap, Michelle said: 'It feels like coming home. 'After doing my first few scenes, it was like I'd never been away. 'It all happened at the right time. EastEnders drops huge clue that Zoe Slater has a secret child before shock exit 'I'd already been thinking about a return because I'd met up with Kacey Ainsworth (Little Mo) and Kim Medcalf (Sam Mitchell) and we were reminiscing our fond memories of the show, and I'd also joined social media and saw that there was still a lot of love for the character. 'It just so happened that at the same time, EastEnders had announced a new Exec who was keen to explore the potential of a return as he was such a massive fan of Zoe and the Slaters, so both of our worlds aligned at the right time, and I'm so excited to be back. 'When I was pitched the storylines, and when I read the scripts, I knew it was the right decision.'

EastEnders drops biggest clue yet Zoe Slater is a secret MOTHER – and her child is already in Walford
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) EASTENDERS has dropped a huge hint Zoe Slater's secret child is already in Walford with a very telling scene. The iconic character - who is played by actress Michelle Ryan in the BBC soap - returned last night looking worse for wear. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 2 There was a huge hint that Zoe was hiding a major secret in EastEnders Credit: BBC 2 Could Joel be her son who she abandoned? Credit: BBC Clutching a bag of booze and having barely recovered from her hangover, Zoe looked to be in an out of control and desperate situation. But there was a clue that suggests Zoe is in fact the mother of predatory incel Joel who recently arrived in the Square. Viewers know he has been grooming Tommy Moon to be as misogynistic and vile as he is - and last night he opened up about his own mummy issues. And coinciding with Zoe's return as a mess seems to suggest the two are linked. 'You don't talk about your family… is your mum in Australia?' asked Tommy of Joel. Joel told him: 'No - my mum's a slapper.' 'It's just… my mum ran off when I was little,' he added. 'And my dad moved us to Australia for a fresh start but he was always working. 'I just hated it. And the kids took the mick out of me for my accent. 'I asked the teacher if I could go to the loo on the first day. Didn't know it was called the dunny, did I? So I was called Lulu from then on. 'Didn't say a word for six months, in case I said it wrong after that. Then when I finally fought back, I got expelled. Blackmail horror for EastEnders teenager as sexual predator Joel targets another victim 'Then when I finally met some real mates, dad met Vicky and dragged me back here. I didn't have a choice in any of it and now I'm stuck in this dump.' Joel was also pouring poison into Tommy's ear about his mum - who if the hint is correct - is his own grandmother. Zoe has since fled the country to go to Barcelona but will return later this summer. Will her secret be revealed then?
