EASTENDERS’ Maisie Smith has marked three months since her beloved pet dog’s death on Instagram today.

The 19-year-old star admitted that she misses Benny every day, showing that he is never far from her mind with a series of photos.

The tribute started with a brief clip of Maisie stroking Benny as he slept on the sofa, with the teen going on to share a snap of herself beaming while cuddling the pooch.

The actress is dressed casually in grey tracksuit bottoms and trainers, with Benny enjoying the attention.

The final snap showed the pet fast asleep, with Maisie adding in the captions: “Three months today.

“I miss you every day, sleep well baby.”

The flame-haired beauty appeared extra appreciative of her family on today’s sad anniversary, following her tribute to Benny with a throwback snap of herself and her lookalike sister.

In the photo, Maisie is wearing an orange baseball cap and blue Calvin Klein sports bra, with her sister Scarlett smiling next to her.

Both girls have cocktails, and Maisie added “Good vibes” in yellow text at the bottom of the picture.

She simply captioned the post: “Sup sis”.
