Fans think she looks the exact same than when she first appeared in 1985

The 70-year-old actress stunned droves of loyal viewers as she walked the red carpet at the glitzy bash.

 

Gillian is one of the only original stars left on the long-running BBC soap.

She has portrayed Kathy Beale, Ian Beale’s mother, since EastEnders’ debut in February 1985.

Though believed killed off, her character was resurrected for EastEnders’ 30th anniversary celebrations.

On EastEnders, the character is aged around 75, following celebrations of her 70th birthday in 2020.

She stunned at the event in a Grecian-style one-shoulder floor-length lilac tulle gown.

Her blonde locks were styled into a classy up-do as ringlets framed her timeless features as she celebrated the soap’s multiple wins.

The star also sported a natural makeup look with blush on her cheeks, smokey eye shadow and a light pink gloss.

After seeing the actress strut her stuff at the star-studded awards bash, fans simply could not believe she is supposed to have a 57-year-old son.

Taking to X – formerly known as Twitter – after the event, one fan gushed: “The ageless Gillian Taylforth she truly gets younger every year.”

Admiring her ageless appearance, another said: “Gillian Taylforth proves age is just a number! She’s 70 but looks like she’s in her 50s. So envious!”

While a third commented: “Gillian Taylforth always looks so stunning.”

“She will be 5 years old in 2028,” stated a fourth user.

Before the event, a fifth added: “Sometimes i wonder if Gillian Taylforth took the potion from death becomes her. Our ageless diva.”
