Since then, she has continued a feud with EastEnders and recently branded the show "out of touch.";

";The lack of appreciation that was showed by some people within my time there was very difficult to watch.
"If I was well enough, I’d definitely have had a thing or two to say to some of the people who were really taking advantage of the already overstretched and underfunded system that these poor people are trying their best to maintain."
