‘It’s still my dream job’: Jacqueline Jossa wants EastEnders return

OHMYGOSSIP — Jacqueline Jossa wants to return to ‘EastEnders’, admitting it is still her “dream job”.
The 30-year-old actress – who won the 19th series of ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’ in 2019 – would love to reprise her role as Lauren Branning in the BBC One soap, after heading back to Walford for late character Dot Branning’s funeral last month.
She said: “I won the jungle and have done things like that, but I get people shouting Lauren at me the most out of everything. People still care about her.
“I would 100 per cent put the leather jacket back on and the boots and get going, because it’s the best job in the world, and it’s still my dream job.”
Jacqueline also admitted her brief ‘EastEnders’ return has given her “fire in [her] belly” to pursue more creative opportunities.
Speaking on the ‘Soap From The Box’ podcast, she added: “When I went back recently I was nervous, but I was literally like, ‘I could stay here forever. I love it. This is the best job in the world.’
“I’ve really realised that that’s where I am my happiest and my passion and enjoyment comes from that side of things.
“Since going back to ‘EastEnders’ I’ve had that little fire in my belly again, like there is that part of me that isn’t fulfilled anymore, that creative side.”
Last month, the star admitted she was “quite scared” about her Albert Square return in case she had forgotten how to act.
She said: “I was like, ‘I can’t remember how to act, I don’t know what I’m doing.’
“I was really nervous. I just felt a bit rusty. I didn’t know whether people were going to see me as Lauren again.
“But then I walked in and saw people like Scott Maslen and Natalie Cassidy and people behind the cameras and straight away I was at home. It was the same people all friendly faces. It was genuinely like being back at home.”
