Pregnant EastEnders star Louisa Lytton has cancelled her wedding after already postponing it twice.
Louisa had been due to marry fiancé Ben Bhanvrua in 2022 because it couldn’t go ahead “the way we wanted this year”.
However, now Louisa – who is pregnant with their first baby – has revealed the nuptials have now been “cancelled altogether”.
She is due to give birth to their first baby in September.

How will Ruby leave EastEnders?
Louisa is the third EastEnders star to announce her pregnancy – and soap bosses haven’t revealed how her character Ruby Allen’s exit will play out on screen.
Well, we’ve cancelled the wedding altogether now. We’ve decided to scrap the whole thing and start again with our plans.
As well as Louisa’s baby news, Stacey Slater actress Lacey Turner recently welcomed her second baby and is now absent on screen.
Kellie Bright, who plays Linda Carter, is also expecting a baby, so she’ll also be taking a break from Albert Square later this year.
