Michelle Ryan – EastEnders, born in 1984

Michelle Ryan’s most iconic role has to be as Zoe Slater in EastEnders, as fans of the show are still talking about her to this day. The storyline had all sorts of twists and turns, and her acting kept audiences hooked! While she got started in the industry at the young age of 16, the actress left the TV series in 2005 to pursue other ventures.

Ryan has since worked on many notable projects, including Cockneys vs. Zombies, Doctor Who, and D**** in Paradise. She even dabbled in theatre, but currently, the star stays off from the limelight and is not active on any of her socials.
