Former EastEnders actress Rita Simons has shared a health update after undergoing a total hysterectomy earlier this year.
The actress, who was known for her role as Roxy Mitchell in the BBC soap, shared an inspirational International Woman's Day post as she revealed the journey she's been on since undergoing the surgery in January.
The actress had previously spoken about her debilitating and irregular periods, which worsened her OCD and anxiety and had stopped her from being able to work.
