‘EastEnders’ Natalie Cassidy Opens Up About Daughter’s Hospitalization Challenges and Safeguards |
Natalie Cassidy shared the heartbreaking story of her nine-year-old daughter’s emergency hospitalization. The ‘EastEnders’ star, best known for her role as soap opera Sonia Fowler, revealed she rushed her daughter Joanie to A&E after the child broke her arm in a school accident.Cassidy spoke about the heartbreak of the incident, which happened just weeks after Joanie underwent surgery on the same arm after a previous injury. She shares Joanie with her boyfriend Marc Humphreys. He also has an older daughter, 15-year-old Eliza, from a previous relationship.
A tragic incident at school
Cassidy gave a candid account of the accident. He explained how he and his family planned to live together at home. “I used to work a little in the morning at home. [Marc] I went outside, put in the pool, cut all the grass – I think we will have a few days, like a mini vacation, at home. Then the phone rang,” he recounted on his life with the Nat podcast.The call brought sad news. “Joanie has broken her arm again. The same arm – it was broken into pieces. Antibiotics, same operation,” Cassidy said, describing the injury in detail. This happened when Joanie sneaked down the hall before PE at school.
Clinical research broken again and again
After the second fracture, medical experts began to investigate whether something else could be causing Joanie to break bones. Cassidy revealed that her daughter had tested positive for a “deficiency” that could explain the prevalence of the disease.However, the test results came back normal. “He had blood tests, and everything is in different ways. It’s absolutely perfect. The consultant actually said, ‘I think it’s just an accident,'” said Cassidy, indicating that the medical team could not find a physical explanation for repeated fractures.
Natalie Cassidy’s work is complicated by the past
Cassidy joined EastEnders at the age of 10 and announced she would be leaving the soap in 2025, later branching out into podcasting with her Life with Nat show. The actress has previously discussed controversial decisions, including appearing in a series of weight loss videos in the 2000s called ‘Then & Now’ and ‘The Perfect Ten.’Reflecting on the videos, Cassidy admitted it “didn’t go well” taking part in the series, where she lost four stone.
