EastEnders' original Dotty Cotton unrecognisable with glam jet-setting life
She shot to fame as Walford legend Dot Cotton's granddaughter Dotty 13 years ago, but Molly Conlin's jet-setting life now is unrecognisable to what it once was.
The actress, who played Kirsty 'Dotty' Cotton for two years from 2008, has swapped acting for the gym and venturing to idyllic spots across the world.
Molly Conlin was an Albert Square staple for two years before she moved away from stardom. She joined the popular soap in 2008 when she was just seven-years-old after producers said she was too old for the role of Tiffany Dean (played by Maisie Smith).
Dotty was part of one of the most iconic families on EastEnders, along with her grandmother Dot Cotton and her criminal dad Nasty Nick.

After leaving in 2010, Dotty was recast in 2019 as Milly Zero stepped in to take over the role. While Molly left Albert Square behind, she did go on to appear in other TV shows such as BBC's Blandings and Horrible Histories.
Molly also clearly takes pride in her health and fitness, often showing off her progress in the gym. When she's not working out, she makes the most of her love for travel by jetting off to lounge in the sun with a cocktail or two.
Whether Molly will ever return to EastEnders following Milly's exit is unclear - it is possible, considering Kim Medcalfe returned as Sam Mitchell despite being previously replaced as Danniella Westbrook.
And the BBC soap is set to get even more dramatic as villain Graham Foster is due to make a dramatic return, 18 years after being imprisoned for raping Little Mo Slater.
Actor Alex McSweeney will reprise the role as he makes contact with son Freddie Slater who was born following the attack.
Graham was last seen on screen in 2005 when Billy saw him in prison.
Speaking to The Mirror actor Alex said: "I'm grateful to be asked to reprise the role of Graham as I thought it was important for Freddie to be given some answers about his dad'.
"I thoroughly enjoyed working with the talented Bobby Brazier."
