Lacey Turner, the beloved actress known for her role as Stacey Slater on EastEnders, stunned on the red carpet at the Inside Soap Awards just hours after announcing her pregnancy. The 36-year-old legend took to social media earlier today to share the exciting news with her fans, and now she was glowing from head to toe with her growing baby bump on full display in a gorgeous gold and black dress.
Joining fellow soap stars Kellie Bright, Letitia Dean, Diane Pariah, Gillian Taylforth, and Balvinder Sopal, Lacey looked radiant as she proudly showed off her little one in tow. In her Instagram post, she shared a picture of herself and her partner Matt Kay with their two children, Dusty and Trilby, holding baby scan photos and beaming with joy. The caption simply read, "Aren't we lucky...".
Matt and Lacey, who have been together since childhood, tied the knot in 2017 and welcomed their first child Dusty in 2019. They also have a three-year-old son named Trilby Fox. Lacey expressed her excitement about expanding their family, saying, "Matt and I are completely besotted with our early surprise and Dusty is so in love with her new baby brother! How lucky we all are."
However, Lacey has also been open about the challenges she has faced on her journey to motherhood. In a Channel 5 documentary called Miscarriage: Our Story, she bravely shared her experience of suffering two miscarriages, including one while she was at work. She revealed that she felt heartbroken and alone, and wishes she had opened up and talked to someone about it.
The actress has been a part of EastEnders for 20 years and is currently involved in a major storyline where her character Stacey is covering up a murder. Despite her busy schedule, Lacey is also set to host a new podcast called We Started Here, which will showcase the stories of famous television and film icons and their beginnings in soap operas. She hopes to give audiences an inside look at her own journey into the industry as a teenager playing Stacey.
In 2017, Lacey and Matt tied the knot in a beautiful Ibiza wedding attended by many of her EastEnders co-stars, including Barbara Windsor, James Bye, and Jake Wood. Reflecting on their lasting relationship, Lacey said, "I just feel really lucky. It's really rare to spend this many years with someone and still feel the same as it did in the beginning. We don't know any different, but I know we definitely feel lucky."
