In fact, Hetti previously admitted she "hated" her character and was glad she got killed off.
Lucy Beale was played by four actresses after being introduced to EastEnders as a newborn baby in 1993.
Hetti was the last to play the character, who was the daughter of Ian and Cindy Beale and twin sister of Peter Beale.
