She stunned fans with an unexpected hair makeover at the end of last year.
But Jessie Wallace proved blondes don’t always have more fun as she was spotted for the first time back with her trademark dark black colour on Thursday.

Jessie kept things casual donning a pair of jeans and printed shirt, with a black leather jacket.
The actress, who appeared in good spirits, accessorised with oversized sunglasses and kept warm with a black scarf.

The EastEnders favourite, 52, loved by many for her role as Kat Slater, donned cosy denim and a print shirt underneath a black leather jacket for her daily outing
She did not caption her post but her followers flooded the comments section with compliments.
One person wrote: ‘Looks amazing, I’ve just watched a classic EastEnders and in one scene you asked Zoe if you would suit blonde hair the answer is definitely yes.’
Yet, just five months later she opted to go back to black.
It comes after Jessie confirmed her engagement to her carpenter partner Justin Gallwey with a sweet Instagram post in 2022.
Announcing her happy news at the time, she shared a cosy snap with her partner and wrote: ‘My fiancĂ© and moi.’
The pair have been together for at least a year and their engagement had previously been reported before they confirmed the news.
Jessie downplayed rumours she was already married to Justin last summer after referring to him as her ‘husband’.

She prompted inevitable speculation across social media with an Instagram post, in which she hinted at something more than a committed relationship.
Sharing a photo of herself wrapped in Justin’s arms as they relaxed in a London pub, Jessie added the simple caption: ‘My hubby.’
Jessie and Justin are said to have known each other since they were teenagers.
Justin hinted at his plans to propose last July, commenting on a photo of Jessie and her friend Jaime Winstone modelling matching costume jewellery on the set of a special flashback episode of EastEnders.
Taking to Instagram, he wrote: ‘See I told you you would have a ring on that finger by the end of the year.’
It was previously reported Justin had been helping Jessie to battle her booze demons after she was arrested for allegedly assaulting a police officer.
He told The Sun on Sunday: ‘I just want to protect her. Everything is happy and things are good.’
Justin, who is said to keep a Jessie doll from Toy Story in his van, told The Sun last year: ‘Our relationship is fine. We are very close.’ Speaking of the police incident, he added: ‘I have made my apologies and so has Jessie.’
