Filming herself on front camera, the star rocked some oversized Rayban sunglasses, a white t-shirt and pink coat.

Natalie said to her followers: “I thought to myself ‘Can I post today?’ Just got home from work… I’m very very lucky, I finished early today.”

She then pointed to her hair and said: “Bit grey… ah who cares? Doesn’t matter does it?”

Natalie continued: “I just had to do this, I know it’s boring, I’m squinting – the sun is out!

“How much better does it make you feel?! Thank you! Yes please we’ll have some more of you! Don’t shy away from it!

“Come and see it, we all feel excellent today because of you. Glorious! See you later.”

Natalie captioned the post: “Hello bloody sunshine! #feelgood #sunhasgothishaton #yesplease #greyhairdontcare #happymonday.”

Many fans rushed to the comments section to share the love.

One said: “Love you so much , you are so real and you make me smile, thank you

❤
.”

“You make my day xx thank you xx,” a second added.

A third chimed in: You’re so lovely and down to earth..”

It comes days after Natalie was praised for going make-up free as she looks worlds away from her alter-ego Sonia.

She took to social media to tell fans that she’s currently training for this year’s London Marathon.

The soap star said: “I’ve just ran five miles.

“I’m not going to be one of those people this year who is like ‘hi guys so good to get out running’.”

She added: “We all know it’s good to get out walking, running or whatever but I am proud of myself today because I’ve only been doing 5k’s and today I did the five miles. I’m training for the Marathon.”

Natalie first ran the London Marathon in 2019 in a bid to raise awareness and money for dementia in honor of her former co-star Barbara Windsor, who was diagnosed in 2014 with the heartbreaking disease.

Last month she shared a snap of her rarely-seen fiance Marc Humphries, who also works on the hit show as a cameraman.

The pair have been together since 2014 and got engaged the following year.

They share a daughter called Joanie Elizabeth, seven.

Natalie also has a daughter called Eliza from a relationship with ex Adam Cottrell.
