Heather Peace Unveils First Post-Chemo Haircut in Recovery Update

She shared the regrowth video on Instagram, drawing messages of support from EastEnders colleagues.

Overview

  • The 50-year-old actor recorded a salon visit as hairstylist Morgan Rhodes shaped her regrown hair into a pixie cut at Alfie and Co.
  • She removed the orange baseball cap she has worn since February and said the cut felt like "a big part of me piecing myself back together."
  • Castmates including Balvinder Sopal, Kellie Bright, Diane Parish and Emma Barton praised the milestone in public comments.
  • TV figures such as Lorraine Kelly and former footballer Jill Scott also added supportive notes on the post.
  • Peace previously disclosed an October breast cancer diagnosis, surgery over Christmas and months of chemotherapy that have since ended, while her wife Ellie Dickinson underwent a lumpectomy and radiotherapy for her own diagnosis.
