EASTENDERS' Lorraine Stanley looks slimmer than ever after undergoing a dramatic five stone weight loss.

The mother-daughter-duo busted some moves to a song set to slow motion in their kitchen in an Instagram Story.
Lorraine, who shares Nancy with her partner Mark Perez, flashed a beaming smile while dancing away with the sprog.
The soap star has been putting her new physique on full display in recent times.
Just last month, she sported a slimming flower print crop top and trousers combo as she partied the night away at a special bingo event.
Underneath the tied top, she donned a skin-tight white vest which only emphasised her tiny waist.
For shoes, Lorraine opted for complimentary open-toe leather platform strapped heels for the occasion.
Alongside flaunting her physique, the star also opened up on a huge new milestone in her life.
She captioned the snap: "5 months sober & still had a good night dancing! #Sobriety."
The TV star also told how her changing figure was not down to popular weight loss jabs like Ozempic or Mounjaro.
Instead, Lorraine opted for a gastric sleeve operation.

One inquisitive fan on TikTok asked for Lorraine's secret, to which she simply answered back in the comments: "Gastric sleeve."
A gastric sleeve is a weight loss procedure that removes a significant portion of the stomach, creating a smaller, sleeve-shaped pouch.
The actress was written out of Eastenders in 2023 after seven years on the show in a huge shock to fans.
Her character's axing was as part of a shock cast shake-up and her final scenes were aired in December of that year.
She went onto reprise her fan-favourite role a number of times in 2024 before her last episode hit BBC screens in June.

Lauren Goodger hits back at trolls who mocked her looks after she revealed she's having her 'heavy' breast implants removed for a 'natural look'
hit back at critics on her Instagram Story on Friday after trolls cruelly criticized her looks on a recent lingerie post. The TOWIE legend, 38, who revealed at the time that she is having her 'heavy' breast implants removed for a more 'natural look', was bombarded by hateful comments about her appearance. Lauren then shared a pal's post of lingerie snap and hurtful comments, in which her friend had defended her by writing: 'At this rate I'm disgusted in the human race. 'Not only is this a woman who's carried two baby's it's a woman who's lost one. How on earth could anyone try to hurt her il never know. 'Reading trolls on her posts has made me feel sick! What a horrible world we live in! @laurengoodger you are a supper woman and your beautiful just the way you are (love heart emoji).' Lauren re-sharing the message of support comes after she admitted her breasts were 'perfect' before, although now they simply 'make her look big', as she opened up about her breast-reduction journey on Instagram last month. The TOWIE legend, 38, who revealed at the time that she is having her 'heavy' breast implants removed for a more 'natural look', was bombarded by hateful comments about her appearance (pictured on TOWIE in 2011) Now, her pal has hit back at trolls by reposting the lingerie snap and hurtful comments, saying: 'At this rate I'm disgusted in the human race. Not only is this a woman who's carried two baby's it's a woman who's lost one. How on earth could anyone try to hurt her il never know' The reality star shared on her Instagram page at the time a snap of herself posing in a sheer dusky pink baby doll, which showcased her very ample assets. She wrote in the lengthy caption: '11 years ago I had a breast augmentation, one of the things I regret later in life. 'I had the perfect boobs .. they have been great over the years but since being a mum and breastfeeding for 1 year they have now changed and I've always found they make me look bigger! 'Also they are heavy and I don't like the idea of an implant being in me all these years and I miss my old boob so much.. so after looking around I've found someone that I feel really keen with having my consultation with @marksolomos. 'This is a HUGE step for me I've wanted to have them removed for so long but suffering with serve anxiety surgery is the last thing I can do ! Lauren finished: 'So it's early stages but I am bringing you a long with me! 'I'm terrified but also for health reasons I'm having implants removed and bring back more to my normal self wanting to reverse everything back to natural.' It comes after earlier in March, the TV sensation shared a huge plastic surgery U-turn on finally having her implants removed after previously fearing death if she went under the knife again. The TOWIE star delayed getting her breast and Brazilian bum lift removed because she hated the thought of leaving her daughter Larose behind should anything go wrong. Lauren shares daughter Larose, three, with her ex Charles Drury and tragically gave birth to her stillborn daughter Lorena in 2022 after she was born with her umbilical cord wrapped around her neck. After years of desperately wanting to get her cosmetic surgery reversed, Lauren has finally plucked up the courage to put plans in place for later this year. Sharing her plans in an exclusive interview with MailOnline, she said: 'I was terrified [of getting it done] which is what I'm working on, I'm working on that. 'I've delayed it for a year now. I was meant to get the implants out and I want them out because that will transform me. 'It's not even about my weight, it's more my boobs and bum. If I could get rid of them I'd feel and look so much better.' After a breast augmentation surgery in 2013, she transformed her 34D chest size to 34E, yet while Lauren said she loved how her breasts looked at the time, now she feels differently. She added: 'I've got such a big bum and ginormous boobs, that I look so much bigger than I am because If you catch me at an angle I can look a lot bigger and if they were gone I'd look much more in proportion. 'So I don't really think it is altogether my weight, it's more because I need to get rid of the surgically enhanced assets which is my bum and boobs. 'Let's hope I can do it this year because I will feel so much more comfortable.' Lauren previously admitted she wanted to get rid of her BBL after she described it as 'the worst experience' of her life - which sparked her fears of more surgery.

‘It is impossible to recall him without smiling': Simon Rattle on Alfred Brendel
It's hard even to know where to start with Alfred: for any musician of my generation he was simply always there, the very definition of integrity and a kind of unique probing humour. I heard him first in Liverpool, playing Mozart's Piano Concerto No 22, K482, an unforgettable concert for an impressionable 14-year-old. I could never have imagined then that my first collaboration with him would be in the same city when I was 20. That Beethoven – his first piano concerto – began a long journey of learning and friendship over the subsequent decades. I cannot stress how much I learned from him, or how painfully obvious it was to me just how steep the climb was to be able to come anywhere near to being an adequate partner for him. I remember clearly the sense of being kindly but firmly stretched to beyond my level of musicianship. Immense freedom within a strict framework. I am profoundly grateful that he was willing to carry on pulling me upwards for nearly 40 years! I visited him often in his Hampstead home. I met his friend Isaiah Berlin there, terrifying enough on its own, and he said to me, 'you know, I don't think Alfred has ever had an unoriginal thought'. An astonishing but probably accurate observation from an intelligence that could recognise its equal. But often it was just the two of us, listening and discussing. He was happy to listen to interpretations I brought, as he was with surely countless other musicians, and my scores are full of his insights and recommendations. In the middle of one of my evidently lugubrious accounts of the Eroica symphony's funeral march, I noted his devastatingly honest comment 'Simon, have you never considered that there might be such a thing as active grief?' But often it was his wisdom about how to turn harmonic corners more eloquently. Difficult to achieve but vital for the music. Plus generous, challenging encouragement. Contemporary art, one of his quiet passions, politics, literature were also there in the mix. But it is his humour, an almost surreal amusement at the world around him, that remains the strongest memory, and the reason it is impossible to recall him without smiling, even in this time of sadness. The Alfred who, as a young man performing in Vienna, brought a tortoise on stage with him to walk around the concert hall floor, 'just because I like funny things.' This friendly devil would sometimes make an appearance. He loathed piped music: I remember him in one Birmingham restaurant spying a thin wire leading to what seemed to be an unstoppable sound system. 'I have just the thing' he said, producing a small pair of scissors from his jacket pocket. Seeing our astonishment as he quickly snipped through the wire, he said. 'Don't worry, they won't even notice until tomorrow and it may be weeks before they discover the wire!' As ever, unique and unexpected. And even the occasional sharp edges deeply lovable. What a privilege to have had him in our lives.

Fashion fans go wild for 90s classic which is back in George at Asda for just £10 & they come in a number of fun colours
IF you grew up in the 90s and were obsessed with jelly shoes, you may be delighted - or horrified - to see the trend is firmly back in action. From celebs such as Rihanna to catwalk models, everyone is back on the jelly hype - and even George at Asda has jumped on the trend. 7 If you dare to once again rock the playful jelly shoe, the supermarket is selling pairs for just £10. The slip-on, ballet-style flat comes with a lightly gripped sole and a diamond cut out design. You can also choose from five colours: white, charcoal, pink, green and orange. At just a tenner, it is a fraction of the price of a £85 designer version by Ancient Greek Sandals spotted on Net-a-Porter. This pricey alternative also comes in a range of colours and is 'made for the beach with their rubbery, washable PVC.' The George at Asda affordable lookalike has already caught the attention of fashion TikTokers. One creator shared her find in-store, saying Asda is 'pulling through again,' sparking over 20,000 likes. Abby, who posts under @abbybella3, shared: 'I need to share with you girls what I've just bought. I am so happy with them. 'You girls are all gonna be like, 'What the f*** has she bought now?'' She revealed she had the expensive Net-a-Porter pair on her wish list for ages, but they had been out of stock and she also questioned the price. I've been desperate for a pair of £85 mesh jelly shoes for summer - I found the EXACT dupe for a tenner 7 Abby was delighted to spot the George at Asda dupe. She added: 'I just randomly went to Asda and I picked up these for £10: a pair of jelly mesh jelly shoes. 'They look identical to the ones from Net-a-Porter. But they're not £85. They were £10. 'I'm so happy with them.' Abby acknowledged that they may not be everyone's cup of tea, but she didn't care. 7 7 She continued: 'I know you're all thinking, 'Yuck, they're hideous.' 'You wait until you see me style them, because you're all gonna change your mind. Promise you. 'But I love them, so I had to share because they were £10. 'I'm so happy with them. I cannot wait to style them.' People were quick to comment and say they wanted to snap up a pair. One wrote: 'I'm running to Asda for the orange ones if they've got them cos WOW!'
