EastEnders’ Dana Monroe star Barbara Smith looks incredible as she strips off to bikini in Cuba
EASTENDERS star Barbara Smith wowed fans as she posed in her bikini in Cuba.
The actress is currently enjoying a sun-soaked break after exiting the BBC soap, where she played Dana Monroe.
In the snap Barbara is seen wearing a bright green string two-piece while taking a snap in her mirror.
Barbara was amongst four actors who all left the soap last year after the arrival of new boss Chris Glenshaw.
Stuart Highway actor Ricky Champ left the soap after four years, alongside Dayle Hudson, who has played Ian Beale’s son Peter since 2020.
Jada Lennox star Kelsey Calladine-Smith also left, but made a brief return this year.
Dana was last seen heading off to university in Scotland after splitting from Bobby Beale.
The actress – who is a huge fan of the soap – previously enjoyed a very brief cameo on EastEnders in 2019 before joining full time in 2021.
Speaking about her exit, Dana wrote: “And that’s a wrap for me on @bbceastenders !!!!!!!
“When I first stepped onto the square I had to pinch myself.
“What a lucky girl I am to have been a part of such an incredible (and not to mention iconic) show, to evolve and put my stamp on such a wonderful, real character who always tries to do the right thing and show you all what I can do as an actress.
“Dana Monroe I will carry you with me everywhere I go.”
She added: “I’m so grateful to everyone at EastEnders who gave me this phenomenal opportunity (Ps I snuck in a classic large-collared Dana outfit at the end because I’m gonna miss her and her giant collars so much).”
