EastEnders’ Lauren Branning actress Madeline Duggan unrecognisable 13 years after quitting soap role

FORMER EastEnders actress Madeline Duggan looks unrecognisable 13 years on from appearing on the telly.

The star, who played Lauren Branning on the soap, has transformed into a very glamorous young woman.

Looking incredible, Madeline – now 29 – posted a picture on holiday in Marbella this week, wearing a sheer black dress.

She can be seen holding a glass of wine as she pulls a sultry pose for the camera.

The stunning brunette has been keeping fans up to date with her trip and also shared a snap in her bikini.

Madeline was just 12 years old when she was picked to play the part of Lauren Branning in 2006, the eldest child of Tanya and Max Branning in the BBC One soap.

Her storylines included finding out her father was having an affair and being targeted by Walford paedophile Tony King (who also happened to be her friend Whitney Dean’s stepfather).

But after four years in the role, Madeline called it quits, leaving her spot to Jacqueline Jossa in 2010, who portrayed Lauren until her own departure from the show in 2018.

Madeline’s roles have been limited in recent years but she remains signed to an acting agent.

She has booked roles for Sky Atlantic in The Tunnel, Channel 4‘s Dates and the BBC’s By Any Means.

He recent film credits also include an appearance in Amazon Prime’s Maybe I’m Fine and she remains a successful voice over actress.

However, she has previously admitted that she also works part-time in a doctor’s surgery to make a living as “being an out of work actress doesn’t pay.”
