Former Eastenders star Sam Womack wants kids aged 50 after beating cancer

Former EastEnders star Sam Womack has opened up on her desire to have kids after surviving cancer. The now 50-year-old's new life mantra since beating breast cancer is 'never say never' and says conquering the disease has left her feeling broody.

“I suddenly really appreciated my kids,” she says thoughtfully. “I really wanted to do it all again.” The soap star has been through rounds of difficult treatment including a lumpectomy and chemotherapy.

But now, Sam says she's found a new sense of peace from shaking up her old life, reports the Mirror. Her partner, Oliver Farnworth, who played Andy Carver on Coronation Street, has been by her side throughout the twists and turns cancer served up, and now the pair are carefully thinking about expanding their family together.
