EastEnders star Lacey Turner shares cute snap of her children – but fans all spot the same thing in the background
STACEY Slater actress Lacey Turner has shared an adorable snap of her two children on Instagram.
EastEnders fans were quick to point out small nod to the BBC One soap in the star’s home.
Soap legend Lacey Turner has been known as feisty Stacey since her first appearance in the Square in 2004.
Much like her character, Lacey knows what motherhood entails as she’s the mother of two children which she shares with her husband, Matt Kay.
On Wednesday, April 13, she shared a heart-warming snap of her rarely-seen two-year-old daughter Dusty and her one-year-old son Trilby on Instagram.
The 34-year-old caught the siblings watching television together, leaning over a foot stoop and clearly transfixed by the screen in front of them.

“My World”, the caption reads, followed by a love heart emoji.
Many of Lacey’s followers – including her former on-screen husband, Martin Fowler actor James Bye – gushed over the pair.
However, some fans of the long-running BBC One soap were just as captivated as Dusty and Tribly by another detail – Lacey’s wall behind the TV which features leopard print wallpaper.
Most couldn’t help but be reminded of Kat Slater.

The character, played by Jessie Wallace, is another famous and loved Slater as well as Stacey’s second cousin.
As many viewers may already know, she has grown fond of the pattern, going as far as to make it her trademark on the show.
“So cute and I love the fact you have slater wall paper”, one fan commented.
Another admired Lacey’s wallpaper, deeming it “to die for.”
While Lacey is back on the screens, the actress took time off from EastEnders for her maternity leave.
Speaking to OK! Magazine, the actress talked about how she managed to balance her professional life with her family life, claiming she commutes back and forth between the BBC Elstree Centre and her home in Hertfordshire.
“I’m really lucky because although with a big storyline you can be working like any full-time job, there are a lot of times when I’m not needed so it works out perfectly”, she said.
“I also live not too far away from the studios so that always makes things easier and I can pop home between filming. I’m always home for bath and bedtime, too.”
As of April, 2022, Lacey’s character Stacey has been seen desperately trying to get her mother Jean (Gillian Wright) the help she needs amid a manic episode, after coming back to Walford from prison.
