With her EastEnders character currently behind bars for a crime she didn’t commit,

Natalie Cassidy couldn’t have looked further away from Sonia Fowler as she enjoyed the

Bank Holiday weekend. Her nieces Maria and Ellia have been supporting their ‘Auntie

Nat Nat’ as they call her, as she has launched her own podcast, Life With Nat. After setting up their own Instagram account to support Natalie and share their ‘funny, embarrassing and memorable antics’ with their famous aunt, they are also appearing on the latest episode of the podcast. Sharing the picture with her nieces, Natalie wrote: ‘Happy bank holiday guys. Life With Nat podcast out today. Today it’s @natsnieces chatting away. Thank you if you’re listening already. Put your feet up and enjoy.’ Maria and Ellia also shared a picture from recording on their account, writing: ‘Lovely catch up this morning.

Monday’s episode all about customer service, mispronunciations & a good old chin wag! Once you’ve listened, let us know what you think.’ Recent EastEnders scenes saw Natalie’s character Sonia arrested at her engagement party along with fiancé Reiss Colwell (Jonny Freeman) after police found evidence that his comatose wife had been murdered in her care home bed. As fans of the BBC soap know, Reiss smothered her to death in a bid to solve his mounting debts, but was released without charge due to having an alibi.

Unluckily for Sonia, there was DNA evidence linking her to the scene, and she was charged and carted off to jail, with Reiss failing to speak up and admit his crime. Natalie is heavily rumoured to be taking a break from the BBC soap, suggesting Sonia will face a long fight for justice. Asked if anyone can save Sonia, Natalie added: ‘Who knows? But she’s got a lot of champions there on the Square…’ One of those champions could be sister Bianca Jackson, as it has been announced Patsy Palmer is returning to the role for another stint, following her guest appearance earlier this year.
