EastEnders star Luisa Bradshaw-White has issued a heartfelt plea amid a devastating and unexpected family ordeal.

Taking to Instagram, the Tina Carter actress shared a picture of the family’s Shetland pony, revealing that it had tragically been stolen.

‘PLEASE HELP!’ She wrote in the caption, adding: ‘Our family Shetland who is disabled has been STOLEN.

‘She had never been ridden, and she is old, she has never been apart from her mum and she will be extremely stressed and anxious right now. She is a highly sensitive disabled rescue pony.’

She went on to beg her followers to spread the word among the Essex and Sussex area, hoping to get the beloved animal home again.

Her followers were quick to show their support in the comments, with one writing: ‘Oh no Lu, this is so awful, I’m so sorry for you all, and her.’

‘Sending love and prayers for a speedy safe return,’ another said, while countless others revealed that they had shared the post.

Luisa is best known to soap fans for her role as EastEnders’ Tina Carter.

The character suffered a tragic end in 2020 when she was murdered by serial killer Gray Atkins and buried beneath the Argee Bhajee.

Since leaving the show, Luisa has taken up a new venture as a sacred movement guide, offering breathwork and dance sessions at various festivals.

Earlier this year, she opened up about how she ‘cries everyday’ in a powerful social media post.

Luisa reflected on how people are often made to ‘fear’ their feelings and emotions but reiterated that she feels ‘so grounded and without fear’.
