EastEnders favourite Jessie Wallace is to make a sensational return to Albert Square. The actress, who played feisty barmaid Kat Slater in the soap, has told friends she is heading back to Walford in the role that made her famous.
A BBC source revealed: “Jessie is very excited about playing Kat again. She’s been off screen for a few years and a lot has happened since she was last in the show. She feels the time is right for a return and says she can’t wait to get back into the Square and stuck into some meaty storylines.”
Former make-up artist Jessie shot to fame after winning the EastEnders role in 2000. She was one of four unknowns chosen to play the warring Slater sisters. Kat became a huge hit with fans, winning a string of awards and becoming involved in several big storylines – most famously confessing to being the real mum of sister Zoe, played by Michelle Ryan. Offscreen Jessie has had a turbulent personal life, including battles with drink and drugs, and quit the show in 2006. Her character Kat was last seen leaving for America with hubby Alfie Moon.
Earlier this week Jessie, 37, – who recently split from fiancé Tommy O’Neil, 25 – told GMTV’s Lorraine Kelly: “They’ve left the door open and I would go back. It’s a great show and I do miss it.” Last night an EastEnders spokeswoman said there were no “immediate” plans to get Kat back but added: “Where big favourites like Kat are concerned, we would never say never.”

I'd have to agree Sky that I think she shouldn't come back on her own, really it should be with Alfie..... although I can't see what they'd add to that storyline, other than maybe children. My bet is that her and Zoe will come back --- I think they could find a way to work out any liability she might have had as an accomplice in Den's death.

I totally agree. I wouldn't want Kat back on her own. There is nothing quite like a scene opening up with Alfie in his Hammer jammies! With all the other Slater girls gone, except for Stacey, she wouldn't have much to do with out Alfie along. I think children would be a great way to bring them back, although I don't know if Shane Ritchie wants to come back.
15 mins of fame ? Do u know me or jessie wallace ??? go on pls answer cuz ur talking about something u have absolutely no idea of, and to call me a toe rag ?? go suck a lemon u bitterfaced twat , i bet jessie is pissing herself, gotta show her thismisslisalynn wrote:I hope this is not true and just the little toerag's attempt at 15 mins. of fame.
To come here and attack people over shit which happened almost 2 years ago just proves that you are exactly the fucking toerag and son-of-a-bitch which you were accused of being. If it's even you - though I doubt anyone else would be so pathetic as to pretend to be that little ratty cunt.
You will always be a fucking toerag.
You will always be a fucking toerag.
