EastEnders' Jessie Wallace cuts a casual figure

EastEnders star Jessie Wallace cut a casual figure on Wednesday as she left a busy day of filming in London.  

The 49-year-old actress – who plays Kat Slater in the soap – was spotted leaving the set wearing a low-key outfit complete with fluffy yellow slippers. 

Jessie sported a simple David Bowie T-shirt and black leather jacket combination while stepping out.

She completed her look with black joggers while making her way back to her car to head home.

Jessie carried a see-through plastic bag with her full of all the filming essentials as well as her car keys. 

She wore her dark tresses in her classic cropped do and had on a dark eyeliner makeup look.

Last month, Jessie’s co-star Max Bowden split from long-term girlfriend Danielle McCarney, four weeks after Jessie left a sexually-explicit message on his Instagram post.  

The EastEnders actor, 26, who plays Ben Mitchell in the BBC1 soap, called time on the relationship with the former show runner after two years and it’s believed the decision was amicable.

Fans of the soap speculated at the time of Jessie’s crude post on a throwback picture of Max at the 2020 NTAs, in which she wrote: ‘Remember…if you need a m***e to cry on…I’m yer gal’, was a hint the pair were romantically involved.

Max’s followers were taken aback by the crude comment as they shared their shock and amusement online. 

One fan penned: ‘Omg,’ alongside a crying laughing emoji while another said: ‘@jessie.wallace_official we need more Kat, Ben & Phil scenes ❤️’. 

Another wrote: ‘@jessie.wallace_official Supportive m***e.I’m defiantly using this as a pick up line. Cheers Jess,’ in addition to crying laughing emojis. 

But pals told MailOnline Jessie’s comment was simply a joke and Max was with Danielle at the time. It’s not linked to the split.

A source close to the star said: ‘Max and Danielle’s split had been on the cards for a while.

‘The relationship was a whirlwind at the start but ran into trouble a few months ago. They tried to make it work but they decided to remain friends. Nobody else was involved.

‘Max is still very fond of Danielle and he’s gutted it didn’t work out. The consolation is at least they parted on good terms.’

An EastEnders spokeswoman said: ‘We never comment on personal matters.’
