Ex Emmerdale star Mimi Slinger looks unrecognisable with stunning makeover after soap exit and Leanna’s murder

EX EMMERDALE star Mimi Slinger has wowed fans with a stunning makeover after leaving the ITV soap.

She attended the Royal Film Performance and UK Premiere of Top Gun: Maverick in London’s Leicester Square last week and looked worlds away from her former soap character Leanna Cavanagh.

She is dating Strictly star and chart topper HRVY

The 19-year-old showcased her longer hair and glamorous make-up at the star-studded event, while standing next to Strictly star and chart topper HRVY.

The couple certainly dressed to impress as they shared the runway with royalty including Prince William and his wife Katie Middleton.

HRVY, 22, wore a black tuxedo and bow tie, while the actress stole the limelight in a gold strapless gown that clung to her curves.

Mimi posted snaps from the evening on Instagram and penned: “top gun: maverick premiere! such an amazing film with an incredible cast… just as iconic as the original”

HRVY commented: “Wowzer” and a third fan said: “You are next level!”

The Celeb Report exclusively revealed that the two were dating back in October last year.

HRVY – real name Harvey Cantwell – was previously linked to EastEnders’ actress Maisie Smith after they became close on Strictly and were spotted snogging at the shows wrap party in December 2020.

Mimi played Leanna Cavanagh on Emmerdale for three years before she was brutally killed off by the Dales’ resident psychopath Meena Jutla.

Since she left Mimi admitted she was keen to make the move into music – just like her new beau HRVY.

She said: “I would love to do something with my music too, as I am a singer and songwriter.

“I have also recently started modelling and have already done some fantastic, fun jobs. I do love it and am learning a lot.”
