The actress is taking a well-deserved holiday in Cape Verde after filming at EastEnders.
Recently Lorraine’s alter ego Karen welcomed another grandchild as Sharon Mitchell gave birth to a son.
Yep we both still suck our thumbs.
Karen’s son, Keanu, is the baby’s father.
In last night’s episode of the soap (Thursday February 27 2020) after discovering Sharon hadn’t named the baby, Karen suggested the name Kayden.

Sharon agreed and viewers noticed the name has a hidden tribute.
The second syllable ‘Den’ is a tribute to Sharon’s eldest son Dennis Rickman Jr, who recently died in the boat accident, her late lover and Denny’s dad Dennis Rickman, and her dad Den Watts.
In tonight’s episode (Friday February 28 2020) Karen’s son Keegan wants to try and cheer up Tiffany who’s upset over sister Whitney being in prison, and goes to Karen for advice.
Karen inspires him, however Keegan’s plan ends in disaster…
EastEnders airs Monday and Friday at 8pm and Tuesday and Thursday at 7.30pm on BBC One.
