EastEnders star Lorraine Stanley has showcased her impressive five stone weight loss in new pictures she shared with fans.
The actress previously played Karen Taylor on the BBC soap but departed the serial last year.
She has since undergone a body transformation and has shared some pictures with her social media followers along the way.
The former soap star has posted some new before and after snaps, and opened up about her weight loss journey.
She said she has dropped five stone in 12 months and now feels better than ever.
In the after photo she could be seen wearing a stylish black mini dress as she posed.
She wrote: ‘What a difference a year makes.
‘Five stone down, feeling good, clean living, healthy choices, new me, healthy mummy.’
Lorraine previously revealed she is struggling to find new acting gigs following her character Karen Taylor’s shock exit in BBC soap EastEnders.
It was announced Karen would depart Walford at the end of last year.
She later shared some of her struggles in a candid Instagram story – as she looks for new acting roles after playing on the BBC series for seven years.
Lorraine shared a picture of a self-made audition room with plenty of panels, lights, a tripod and a chair, as she prepared to do some self-tape some brand-new audition clip to send.
She admitted her struggle to manage the equipment and told fans how Zack Morris – who played her on-screen son Keegan Baker – gave her a few very useful tips on how to create an authentic setting.
Zack, 25, is currently leading the cast of Disney+’s Goosebumps as Isaiah Howard, as he continues his career in the US.
‘Self tape setup in the loft, I’m so not technical but I’m proud I’ve managed to set it up all by myself with advice on equipment by @_zack_morris,’ she captioned.
‘Just finished one and it’s hard work… I’ll get there.
‘It’a struggle watching yourself back & not being highly critical on yourself… just let it go and send it #SENT.’
