EastEnders icon Natalie Cassidy reveals why she hasn't showered for days

EastEnders star Natalie Cassidy has opened up to her followers about why she hasn’t showered for three days in an honest Instagram post.

When the actress isn’t working long hours playing the iconic Sonia Fowler, she is a mother of two; 11-year-old and Eliza and 6-year-old Joanie.

In a candid Instagram video, Natalie confessed that, with her busy schedule, she had ended up forgetting to shower completely.

In the video, to which she added the hashtag ‘keeping it real’, she tells followers that she has always promised to be honest with them.

‘I just realised when drying my hair that the last time I had a shower and washed my hair was Saturday’, she revealed to fans.

‘I’m the worst mum for saying, “you’ve got to have a shower Eliza, don’t be soapy, get upstairs! You’ve got to have a shower every day, it’s really important! Saturday to Tuesday!”.’

She went on to explain what had kept her so busy over those three days, admitting that she had had ‘a house full’ on Sunday and had been struck by illness on Monday.

‘When you’re not well you don’t fancy it, do you?’, she added.

In the caption of the video, she joked about saving money on the water bills, which is a big topic of conversation in the current cost of living crisis.

Fans of Natalie were quick to assure her in the comments that her break between showers wasn’t that bad.

‘I know someone who showers once a month! You’re clean’, one said, with a laughing emoji.

‘I can’t actually remember the last time I showered. Mum life,’ another added.

‘Is it bad that I don’t see anything wrong with that?’ A third asked.

If there’s one thing we’ve learnt from this, it’s that missing a shower isn’t the end of the world!

Over in EastEnders, Sonia has recently had to deal with the death of beloved Dot Cotton (June Brown) and planning her funeral, which brought Reiss Colwell (Jonny Freeman) to Walford, something Natalie described as a ‘shining beacon of light’ in her character’s life.

Now Reiss has returned to Albert Square and is helping Sonia to hold on to the house that Dot left her in her will, and the pair recently decided to start seeing each other.
