Jacqueline Jossa has revealed she is "itching" to return to EastEnders following her maternity leave.
The actress will return to the show this year after welcoming daughter Ella with former TOWIE star Dan Osborne in 2015.
Speaking to The Sun, Jossa said: "I'm excited. To me, EastEnders is home and I could never imagine not going back.
"I feel ready now – Ella is at a good age. I don't feel like I'm being a horrible mum, whereas before I was like, 'No, I'm never leaving her, ever!'."
"I've been itching to get back, and I get jealous when I see it," she added.
Jossa added: "Lacey [Turner] has been my idol since before I even joined the cast, and I watch her and can't wait to get back and just smash it."
Speaking about her upcoming storylines, the actress said: "I love a big, angry storyline. I just want more pain. It's boring when they're happy.
"EastEnders is best at misery, sadness and anger, and I just miss screaming, crying – they're the scenes I am best at."
Jossa made her first appearance as Lauren Branning in 2010, taking over the role from Madeline Duggan who had played her since 2006.

EastEnders star Jacqueline Jossa has returned to work and teased that Lauren Branning’s first storyline is a corker.
Everyone at the soap, including Jacqueline, are keeping tight-lipped about the circumstances surrounding Lauren’s Walford comeback, but the actress says it won’t be what fans are expecting.
Talking about her first comeback storyline, she explained: “It is a dramatic return. It’s not your average EastEnders thing where people are screaming and shouting but it will shock people.
“They wanted me to go back full-time when we were filming the trial but I didn’t feel like I’d had long enough away.”
And one gorgeous reason she wasn’t ready to come back to work was her daughter Ella, her first with former TOWIE star Dan Osborne.
Jacqueline told the Daily Star Sunday: “Going back to the show and leaving Ella behind will be tough. I can’t go from seeing her every day to nothing, but I’m going to try to make it work.
“Dan will come to my work with her. And if I’ve got time I’ll try to go back home to spend time with her. I’ve loved being a mum at home but now I’m really excited to go back.”
