Jessie Wallace reunites with ex-lover

Former EastEnders star Jessie Wallace has reunited with ex-boyfriend Mark Stannett.

The actress, who has a 21-month-old daughter Tallulah, has given the market trader another chance following their split at the start of this year.

A pal told The People, "They have a tempestuous relationship, but Jessie is smitten. She loves his rough edges and the fact he is so down-to-earth. He also adores Tallulah."

Wallace recently turned down a book deal after deciding that she wants to concentrate on looking after her daughter.
