Lacey, who married husband Matt in 2017 has spoke openly about the couple’s struggle to conceive, making Dusty their miracle baby.
The mother of one discussed her experience on daytime ITV panel show, Loose Women earlier this year.
She said: ‘It took us ages to get pregnant. I put so much pressure on myself to fall pregnant and it wasn’t happening.
‘It got to the point where I said to Matt, “Let’s just forget it. We’ll get a puppy.” As soon as we’d said that, we fell pregnant.’
Lacey departed EastEnders for maternity leave in August last year, but later returned for cameo appearances following her departure.
The brunette beauty is due to return to screens when EastEnders filming resumes in autumn after taking a break due to the pandemic.
