EastEnders fans go wild as Laila Morse poses with her BROTHER Gary Oldman
Fans were in shock!
Last updated 28th Dec 2018
We've long sort of half-known that Lailia Morse, who plays 'Big' Mo Harris' in EastEnders is related by actual blood to Hollywood A-lister Gary Oldman, but it's one of those things that falls out of your head only to delight and astonish every time it returns.
Such as now!
Pictures have emerged on Instagram of Lailia and her brother Gary having a lovely time together over Christmas as Lailia, 73, spent the holidays with Gary, 60, in the US.
The fun family snaps were shared by Gary’s new wife Gisele Schmidt, who commented on the "proper English Christmas dinner" the siblings prepared.
'I remember Laila on come dine with me . Good luck guys 😂😂,' commented one fan. 'I love you big mo. You're a legend 🙌💖💖💖💖,' wrote another.
'Love to see brother and sister together! ❤️,' put another.
Lailia has had a recurring role in EastEnders since 2000, while Gary tore our hearts in two as Sirius Black in the Harry Potter series.
