Love Actually star and one-time EastEnders legend Martine McCutcheon has announced that she has returned to her 90s pin-up roots this summer.

Martine rose to fame playing Tiffany Mitchell on the BBC soap from 1995 to 1999. During her time on Albert Square, she met and married Grant Mitchell, with whom she had one child.

The Queen Vic barmaid was killed during a lovers’ tiff(any) with her husband – accidentally running into the path of an oncoming car as Grant attempted to snatch their child.

After her EastEnders exit, the 48-year-old went on to appear in the 2003 romantic comedy Love Actually, directed by Richard Curtis.

She played Natalie, a junior member of staff at No.10 Downing Street – where she quickly caught the eye of the Prime Minister, aka Hugh Grant.

Taking to Instagram, Martine has shared an update on what she has been up recently – returning to her ’90s’ pin-up girl’ to watch this week’s England match with her son and husband.

Sharing a series of pictures, she revealed her outfit for the day’s sporting activities – a football T-shirt tied off to reveal her stomach, a pair of white denim shorts and a hefty pair of heels.

Posing with an iced drink and a large pair of black sunglasses, a wide smile adorned her face as she prepared to enjoy this week’s balmy weather.

Another picture showcased her long legs – and those heels again – while a third revealed nine-year-old son Rafferty, kitted out for the football match which followed between him and his dad.

‘The Mac’s felt England could have done better… But it ain’t over yet!! Rafferty was showing me all the shots that we “Should have taken” And he was victorious in his match against Daddy.
