EASTENDERS star Lacey Turner broke down in tears after running the London Marathon at the weekend, as she hugged her husband and daughter.
The 35-year-old was running with co-stars Natalie Cassidy and Adam Woodyatt for Babs' Army, a team dedicated to raising funds and awareness for Alzheimer’s Research UK, in memory of their late co-star, Dame Barbara Windsor.
Lacey could be seen in her running gear as she approached the crowds and headed towards her family members.
She planted a kiss on husband Matt Kay, who had their daughter Dusty on his shoulders.
Lacey’s eyes were filled with tears as she impressively finished the marathon.
