Lacey Turner praises "perfect" boyfriend

EastEnders star Lacey Turner has spoken about her "practically perfect" romance with barber Matt Kaye.

The 18-year-old actress, who plays Stacey Slater, is pleased to have finally found a boyfriend who is able to look past her soap fame.

"He's practically perfect. I'm really happy. We are very similar - we both like staying in and watching TV and films," she told the News of the World.

"We are really happy but we are taking it slow. We are still so young - we haven't really thought much about the future. I know that I want to be a mum, but not for many years yet. I'm just getting started with my career so that is way off."
