EastEnders star Lorraine Stanley issued a warning to her followers on social media as she admitted she'd been feeling dreadful after suffering from a bad hangover.
The Karen Taylor actress shared a selfie from her car on Instagram, and told her 171k followers her decision to drink was 'not clever.' Lauren, who is seen wearing a bright multi-coloured top, a headscarf, and hoop earrings, looked unlike her usual bubbly self.
Frowning in the picture, she wrote: "Don't drink! It's not funny and it's not clever. Feel like absolute s****!! Look at the face on it...#hanging." The 45-year-old proceeded to share another snap of her beverage to her Instagram stories and wrote: "Only way forward #BloodyMary."

Earlier this month, Lorraine broke her silence after fans were left devastated when the news hit the headlines. Opening up in an interview, the actress confessed she felt a "mix of emotions" after being told she needed to leave Walford.
Lorraine said she hopes her departure will open doors for other projects. "I was sad, it was a mix of emotions, it's sad but it's exciting as now I can go and do what I want," she said.
Revealing whether she would consider joining a rival soap, she told The Sun: "I think it would have to be Corrie and I would have to be the new landlady." Lorraine said of her character Karen: "Just want people to remember her as the best mum on the square, a heart of gold, she's giving you her last fiver and would do anything for her kids - a bit like myself."
