Natalie Cassidy Reignites Row with Paloma Faith over Bullying Claims
The EastEnders star, 42, surprised fans in June when she revealed difficult school experiences, claiming her famous classmate Paloma Faith had bullied her. Recently, Natalie Cassidy has renewed the dispute by reaffirming her bullying allegations.
However, Paloma Faith responded by sharing her own experience of being bullied, adding a new layer to the story just days later.
Natalie's Perspective on School and Bullying
On Katherine Ryan's What's My Age Again podcast, Natalie described how her favorite place as a child was the EastEnders set, as school was challenging due to jealousy from peers. She was cast in the show at just 10 years old, which made other children envious.
"There wasn't anywhere else I wanted to be. Maybe because when I wasn't there, school was difficult, people were jealous. You know, there was bullying that went on. So I always just wanted to be there because it was so fun and I was surrounded by nice people."
