EastEnders' original Lauren Branning actress looks completely different now

Actress Madeline Duggan rose to fame playing the original Lauren Branning in EastEnders when she was just 12.

Madeline played Max Branning's daughter for four years, before departing the soap. She was replaced by Jacqueline Jossa, who starred as Lauren from 2010 to 2018.

During her time on the show, Madeline saw her character involved in huge storylines such as her dad's affair with her half-brother's fiancé, and even an attempted murder. By the time she left the soap in 2010, she had also racked up a huge 249 episodes.
