EastEnders star Laila Morse shocks fans as she shares rare photo with her VERY famous brother

EASTENDERS actress Laila Morse has shocked fans by sharing a rare photo with her VERY famous brother on Instagram.

The 76-year-old star only just launched her social media account, and this was her sixth post since signing up last month.

She shared two throwback snaps to a family holiday in Las Vegas, with the group stood in front of a private jet in one of the pics.

Laila is cuddled up next to her little brother Gary Oldman – the 63-year-old Oscar winner, who has appeared in hit films such as Leon and The Dark Knight as well as the Harry Potter franchise.

She captioned the post: “Throwback to our trip to Las Vegas
✈
#lasvegas #palmsprings #family”, tagging Gary’s wife Gisele Schmidt in the photos.

Gary is keeping a low profile in the pics, dressed casually in simple trousers and a black jumper – adding sunglasses in the first pic and a hat in the second.

Laila’s followers were surprised to see the Hollywood A-lister pop up on their feeds, and shared their amazement in the comments.

One wrote: “
?
I forgot Gary was your brother!”

Another echoed: “I still think it’s crazy how Gary Oldman is your brother
?

Laila and Gary are incredibly close, and previously delighted fans with photos together in 2018, when they spent Christmas together.

In fact, Laila’s stage name is a tribute to her sibling – with the EastEnders favourite’s real moniker Maureen Oldman.

Italian actress Isabella Rossellini suggested the name Laila Morse when she was dating Gary, with it an anagram of “mia sorella” – which translates to “my sister” in Italian.
