EastEnders actress Patsy Palmer left Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield utterly stunned after revealing that Patsy wasn't actually her real name.But appearing on This Morning today, Holly and Phil couldn't believe that Patsy was actually called Julie.
She said that she enjoyed living in Malibu, where she moved after quitting the BBC soap, because she could live anonymously and use her real name - Julie Anne Harris. "My name's Julie really so I'm going to get back to calling myself my real name," Patsy said. "Sometimes I say Patsy, sometimes I call myself Julie, I confuse myself!"While Phil said: "You'll always be Bianca to us!"After quitting the BBC soap, Patsy traded Walford for the Hollywood hills and has since enjoyed the high life.But she said: "We're in Malibu now - unfortunately most of it burned.
"Our neighbourhood, our closest friends lost their homes. So I guess living somewhere like that you realise how close you are to natural disaster." Asked about her return to EastEnders, she revealed that she won't be returning to the soap long term because she doesn't want to move her family.But Patsy admitted that she did miss the soap, saying: "I've always been there, the character's so brilliant.""I love where I live. It's a very down to earth place," she said.
