EastEnders star Jessie Wallace put on a quirky display as she headed out to run errands in north London. 

The soap star, 53, was spotted enjoying the sunshine on Monday as she picked up some groceries. 

And for her outing, Jessie’s ensemble was reminiscent of sleepwear as she sported a pair of white fluffy slipper-style buckled sandals. 

She paired the sandals with a cream silk nightgown-style midi dress, which she covered with a longline green and brown patterned kimono, and she finished off her look with a pair of huge cream sunglᴀsses.

Jessie was all smiles as she spoke on the phone with someone while carrying a Marks and Spencer bag. 

The actress has played Kat Slater on and off in EastEnders for 25 years and has been the focus of major storylines.

Her quirky appearance comes after she swapped The Queen Vic for an East London cafe last month as she took on the role of barista and poured coffees for stunned customers.

She parked up at the popular E Pellicci in Bethnal Green and immediately got to work, helping staff with the weekend rush.

The star even entertained patrons at the family-run Italian establishment, which has been around since 1900, with some of her most iconic lines from the show.

At one point, a crowd of people in the cafe shouted the words, ‘You ain’t my mother!’, in a callback to Zoe Slater’s famous cry in a 2001 episode as she discovered Kat was not actually her sister and had in fact been raped, leading to her birth.

Jessie then screamed out her character’s legendary riposte, ‘Yes I am!’, much to the delight of those present at E Pellicci. 

The soap star posed for a series of heartwarming pH๏τos with the cafe’s staff and customers, which were then posted to the shop’s Instagram page.

The account added the caption: ‘When our GORGEOUS and super lovely friend @jessie.wallace_official performs one of the most iconic lines ever @bbceastenders in a packed cafe ❤️❤️❤️❤️

‘We think our little Rosa would make a great stand in if ever Jessie needed a day off She won’t stop wearing that b****y wig.

During a chat with co-star Lacey Turner, 36, on her podcast in January, Jessie admitted that her legendary line was actually written as a whisper, but she didn’t think that saying those three words quietly would work. 

When asked about the change she made to the scene, Jessie remarked: ‘Tony Jordan had written it as I whispered it and I was like, “no, if I’ve been holding this for 18 years, I’m going to scream it out”.’

Meanwhile, the actress called for the return of Michelle Ryan, 40, to the soap, following her exit as Zoe back in 2005.

Lacey shared: ‘I’d love it if she came back. Would you? “Hello Mum”. Oh, that’s given me goosebumps,’ with Jessie agreeing: ‘Can we make that happen? I think it’d be great. I think it would be lovely.’

Speaking about Kat and Zoe’s iconic storyline, Lacey asked: ‘Did you have any idea it was going to be that big? I literally remember watching it, me and the rest of the nation, watching that episode. 19 million viewers.’

To which Jessie responded: ‘I was so honoured that they gave that storyline for me to carry – but it was really hard.’

Discussing the plot, which revealed that Kat was Sєxually abused by her Uncle Harry resulting in her giving birth to Zoe aged just 14, Jessie continued: ‘And this is back in the day when we used to get like sackfuls of fan mail.

‘And the majority were teenage girls that were going through the same thing, that were relating to Kat and coming to me for help. 

‘But I’m an actor and it had to be pᴀssed on to the NSPCC, which was really tough.’
