Appearing on ITV’s Lorraine, the actress revealed, “I’ve lost 12lbs in six weeks.

“My mate Louisa is my fitness guru, I’ve got her to thank for it. She talks about nutrition.

“I’ve eaten a lot of boiled eggs, fish, chicken, no carbs. No crisps and chocolate.”

Lorraine went on, “I’m enjoying it and I feel better for it.”

“I now live in Hertfordshire,” she shared. “It has a lot of things. I have a little girl, Nancy. She’ll have fresher air, better schools, less crime in general.

“It was a big move and I feel great – it is lovely there.”

Earlier this year, Lorraine was nominated for Best Actress at the TV Choice Awards alongside the likes of Corrie’s Alison King and Emmerdale’s Isabel Hodgins.

Speaking about starring in the soap, she previously told The Mirror, “I grew up watching EastEnders. My mum’s the biggest fan. It’s all about making my mum proud.

“I wind my three sisters up saying that I’m definitely the favourite.”
