People Can't Get Over EastEnders Star Charlie Brooks' Lookalike Daughter

Janine Butcher is one of the most iconic EastEnders villains ever. Now, fans of the BBC soap opera have found actor Charlie Brook's real life daughter, Kiki Brooks-Truman, on TikTok and they can't get over how much she resembles her mum.

Kiki posted a video as part of the TikTok trend where people show throwback snaps of their parents from the 90s and early 2000s. Fans were shook when they saw pictures of the former EastEnders actress and Kiki's dad Tony Truman, and immediately took to the comments section.

Watch Kiki's TikTok below:

One EastEnders fan said: "You look so much like Janine in the beginning pic."

"You are your mums double!!" one woman added.

A third said: "You look like you mum soooo much!"

Another EastEnders viewer commented: "Your mum is an icon".

A second TikTok user replied: "She's the best EastEnders character."

Several users also quizzed Kiki for information about Janine's rumoured return to Albert Square later this year. According to The Sun, Charlie Brooks is set to dust off Janine's infamous leopard print coat once again for a "bombshell" later this year.

"Is it true your mum is coming bk on eastenders, cause if she is I cannot wait eeeekkkk [sic]," one user asked.

"Sorry you must get so bored of these comments but [your] mum is flipping amazing can't wait for her return to EastEnders," added one other person.

When asked by Tyla about Charlie Brooks' rumoured return, the Beeb refused to comment.

The actress first played Janine in 1999, who is the rebellious daughter of Frank, stepdaughter of Pat and sister of Ricky.

Janine left the streets of Walford seven years ago to start a new life in Paris. Married four times, three of Janine's husbands have died, including Barry Evans. The marriage was short-lived after Janine pushed Barry off a cliff in Scotland to inherit his money.

Barry's death scene continues to resonate with viewers today, with some fans mentioning it in response to Kiki's TikTok.

"Don't go near any cliffs w ur mum xox," one EastEnders fan quipped.

We would be delighted to have Janine back on our screens again!
