NEW LOOK EastEnders star unrecognisable as she reveals brand new career 27 years after iconic death on soap

AN EASTENDERS star looks totally unrecognisable in her new career 27 years after her iconic soap death.

The soap actress is best known for playing unhinged bunny boiler Saskia Duncan, whose jealousy turned dangerous when her love interest Steve fell for Melanie Healy played by Tamzin Outhwaite.

Her rage came to a head on Valentine’s Day in 1998 when she turned up at Steve’s club, E20 and told him she’d aborted his baby before trying to strangle him.

In an act of self-defence Steve hit her on the head with an ashtray which killed her, however he framed the young Matthew Rose (Joe Absolom) for the murder, as he was also there at the time.

Despite only appearing in Albert Square from 1998 to 1999, actress Deborah Sheridan-Taylor‘s grisly demise became one of the most memorable murder soap scenes.

Fast forward 27 years on and Debbie has swapped her TV star career for a rather different job.

She’s now a personal stylist and interior designer and has her own company.

She also appeared on Channel 4 property show Grand Designs back in 2014, where she transformed her London home.

The mum-of-two is also somewhat of an Instagram fashionista, with her social media being filled with an array of stylish pictures and tips on how to dress.

Her bio reads: “Image rebranding, red carpet and styling events.”

The former actress looked glam in a string of high-end looking outfits, from tailored suits, designer frocks and trendy jeans.

Her Instagram bio is linked to her company stylist website which is named after her.

She writes: “What I do for you, is about you and how you feel, not about clothes, style nor fashion, but you.

​”My clients don’t look like they’ve been styled, they just look like they’ve got impeccable taste.

“I will empower you, enable you to do what you do, better… whether you’re a banker, lawyer, entrepreneur, other or mother.

“I work with everyone from global brands to small businesses, company owners, executive officers and celebrities to charities, artists to entrepreneurs.

“No matter who you are, or what your style, I deliver currency, relevance, confidence and individuality.”

​”I live in central London in a house I designed and built without compromise with my husband and two daughters.”
