In case anyone is in any doubt about it, the woman who plays the resident EastEnders village idiot Little Mo is eight months pregnant.

What’s more, her pregnancy has nothing to do with the fact that the character she plays on the telly is also pregnant, becoming so after being raped in the Queen Vic pub.

“It was planned for Little Mo to become pregnant before I became pregnant in real life,” says Kacey, “so I have actually blamed the writers for it!

“They jinxed me in the best possible way.”
