Natalie Cassidy is an EastEnders icon, but recently
she has taken on a new project away from the BBC
soap which has seen her achieve huge success.
This week, the Sonia Fowler actress launched her new
podcast Life With Nat, which has achieved overnight success, having already hit number one in the podcast charts.
Taking to Instagram, Natalie shared her excitement at the achievement in a candid video.
‘I’m number one!’ She said in disbelief. ‘It’s ridiculous. I’m number one in the podcast chart.
‘Thank you so much for listening. This is going to be fun, honestly. We’re going to have a right laugh. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I’m speechless for once!’
In the caption of the post, Natalie explained that she was ‘absolutely amazed by everyone’s comments and support’, before encouraging her followers to go after their dreams.
‘It just proves that if you love something a lot and have a dream and goal, with perseverance you can achieve whatever you want.’
Natalie’s EastEnders co-stars were quick to show their support in the comments, with Zack Hudson actor James Farrar writing: ‘NUMBER 1 our Nat’.
