Former EastEnders star Lorraine Stanley has admitted she had no idea about the details of Sabrina Carpenter’s shows.

Lorraine, best known for playing Karen Taylor in the BBC One soap, recently received a video from husband Mark, who took their eight-year-old daughter to one of the performances.

The star, who is 48, was left unimpressed when she realised Sabrina sings to the audience in lingerie outfits.

Lorraine took to her Instagram Stories to share her thoughts on the shows, admitting she feels like a ‘bad mum’ for letting her child view the performances.

She wrote in a caption: ‘Just got sent this video….Nancy is watching that!!! I didn’t realise she was that S***ty. No wonder Mark was keen to take her. Oh God! #toomuch #badmum.’

The Espresso hitmaker, 25, has previously faced criticism for her risqué dance routines and suggestive lyrics.

But Sabrina refused to be ‘shamed’ for her actions, standing alongside other female artists still facing backlash for being comfortable with who they are.

‘My message has always been clear — if you can’t handle a girl who is confident in her own sexuality, then don’t come to my shows,’ she stated.

‘Female artists have been shamed forever. In the noughties it was Rihanna, in the nineties it was Britney Spears, in the eighties it was Madonna — and now it’s me.’

Speaking to The Sun, the Nonsense singer, who previously dated Barry Keoghan, hit out at ‘regressive’ attitude and claimed her critics ignore all the positive elements of her work.

‘It’s essentially saying that female performers should not be able to embrace their sexuality in their lyrics, in the way we dress, in the way we perform,’ she continued.

‘It is totally regressive. It’s like those who want to shame don’t make comments when I talk about self-care or body ­positivity or heartbreak, which are all normal things a 25-year-old goes through.

‘They just want to talk about the ­sexual side of my performances.’

Lorraine played the role of Karen Taylor in EastEnders from 2017-2024.

She initially left Walford for a new life with her family in Spain, but then returned on a few occasions to try and find out who killed her son Keanu Taylor (Danny Walters).

Karen’s final scenes saw her depart Albert Square under the impression Dean Wicks (Matt Di Angelo) killed her boy, with no idea it was actually Linda Carter (Kellie Bright).
