EastEnders’ Natalie Cassidy gives fans a rare look inside her stylish living room with nod to the Queen Vic
NATALIE Cassidy certainly takes her work home – with several nods to her role as Sonia on EastEnders in her plush home.
The actress – who plays nurse Sonia Fowler on the BBC One soap – has decked her living room out with personal touches from a trumpet side table to a Queen Vic teapot.
Natalie joined the soap back in 1993, so it’s no surprise that she’s accumulated some EastEnders memorabilia along the way.
Natalie gave fans a glimpse at her cosy lounge, decorated in cream tones and finished with a wide screen TV and a stylish cabinet.
The TV favourite shared a clip of her watching the British Soap Awards 2023, which aired last night.
Many eagle-eyed fans were quick to spot a small Queen Victoria pub ornamental ceramic teapot.
Natalie shared a close-up snap of the sentimental item and wrote: “For those asking. Yes. It is the Queen Vic teapot under my telly box. It’s in my blood.”
She then shared a photo of her trumpet side table, which featured a glass top with the musical instrument as the stand.
The soap star said: “Don’t think you’ve seen my trumpet side table.”
Fans will know that Sonia is a trumpet player extraordinaire.
Many viewers were delighted that Sonia’s iconic trumpet made a fleeting visit to the hit soap during an episode back in 2018.
Last month Natalie left fans stunned as she revealed her real age.
She celebrated her birthday with friends, family and co-stars.
Natalie took to Instagram to share some snaps from her celebration, including a family picture in front of a stunning balloon display.
Natalie captioned the post: “So I’m 40. What a weekend. Filled with all my favourite human beings.
“Music, laughter, dancing and wine. Beautiful gifts. A special poem. I feel very loved, very lucky and I can’t wait to enjoy my next decade.”
Many fans were surprised by her age, with one writing: “No way! But Sonia is only 16! Happy 40th! 40s are your best years yet.”
“I can’t believe you are 40. wishing you a belated happy birthday,” another chimed in.
