Lauren is involved in 30th anniversary EastEnders star Jacqueline Jossa has confirmed her involvement in the soaps 30th anniversary celebrations. The actress, who plays Lauren Branning in the Walford drama, recently announced that she is expecting her first child with boyfriend Dan Osborne. Fans had speculated that Jossas maternity leave might lead to her missing out on EastEnders milestone birthday episodes, but she told Digital Spy last night (September 8) that this wont be the case. Speaking on the red carpet at the TV Choice Awards, the 21-year-old explained: Yeah I am involved, luckily! Thats one of the main things I was really worried about. I was like, Perfect timing, child! With Lucy Beales killer due to be unveiled in the anniversary episodes, Jossa continued: I think Im getting closer to the truth, but I cant really talk about it because I know more than you. Ive narrowed it down and in my head Im nearly there. Jossa also offered her reaction to fan theories that Lauren could have been the killers intended victim, which would mean Lucys death being a case of mistaken identity. She said: I think it makes sense because they were both wearing the same clothes, they have the same initials and Lauren was supposed to be going to the letting that night. So it does make sense but that doesnt really help me - I dont know why somebody would be after Lauren. Itd be a good twist but I have no idea! Jossa also backed the decision to finally reunite Lauren and Peter Beale (Ben Hardy). The old flames have developed feelings for each other again since Lucys murder, but look set to finally get back together later in the autumn. She said: Weve got actually quite nice happy stuff coming up for Lauren. Its because were finding love thats kind of been there all along but shes the only one who didnt know. Ive been waiting for it for ages because its been building up and building up. Theyve been best friends anyway, so its quite cute. Me and Ben get on really well and its been exciting to work together.
