The son of the late Jade Goody, Bobby Brazier, is set to join the cast of EastEnders.
Bobby is set to make his acting debut as he joins the cast of the BBC soap in the role of 18-year-old Freddie Slater, the son of Little Mo Slater. Bobby is currently filming scenes set to air this autumn.
Before trying his hand out at acting, the son of Jade and Jeff Brazier focused on his modelling career. Since he turned 16, Jade's son has taken the modelling world by storm and made his catwalk debut for fashion giant Dolce and Gabbana in Milan in 2020.

On joining the show, Bobby said: “I’m really excited to be joining the cast of EastEnders - so far it’s been perfect.
"Everybody has been so beautiful to me and made settling in easier than I could’ve hoped. Stepping into the acting world has always been a vision of mine and doing that with EastEnders as a Slater is a blessing, I'm very grateful. Loving every minute of Freddie so far and can’t wait to see what’s in store for him in Walford.”
Chris Clenshaw, executive producer, said: “Freddie Slater is a chaotic 18-year-old with a sensitive soul. A modern-day lad who’s in touch with his spiritual side.
"He’s philosophical, accepting, but full of mischief and makes mistakes. Bobby is an amazing young addition to the EastEnders cast who brings heart and humility to the role of Freddie Slater and I can’t wait for audiences to get to know him."
