EXCLUSIVE: EastEnders actress Natalie Cassidy has opened up about the guilt she felt - and still continues to feel - following the loss of her mum Evelyn in 2002

EastEnders actress Natalie Cassidy has opened up about the tragic loss of her beloved mum Evelyn, admitting she's always felt "very guilty".

Evelyn died in 2002 aged 63, when Natalie was just 19. "That was an age where you don’t want to be at home and you don’t want to be with your parents,” Natalie, 40, told OK! during our exclusive shoot and interview.“I’ve always felt very guilty that she left the world thinking that I didn’t care. I know she knew that I did, because she’d been a young girl herself and understood, but that was a hard thing to deal with. And that I still deal with to this day.

“My favourite thing about being a mum is watching them having the same upbringing, but having totally different interests and personalities.” In April 2021, Natalie sadly lost her dad. “He wasn’t a really healthy man towards the end of his life. He had a lot of different medical issues,” she explained.She keeps his ashes on her windowsill in her lounge, alongside a picture of him and her mum.

“I know it might be a bit morbid for some people but he sits on the windowsill and I like to have a chat with him," she explained.
