EastEnders actress Katie Jarvis has said she is “absolutely fine” following reports she was attacked on a night out.
Jarvis, who plays Hayley Slater in the long-running BBC soap, was “glassed” on the weekend, according to reports.
The actress has now reassured fans she is doing well, tweeting to say “I’m a soldier and been through hell of a lot worse”.
Ok to put people's minds, and questions to rest. I am absolutely fine thank you so much for all your concern and checking in on me but I'm a soldier and been through hell of alot worse.

Jarvis, 27, joined EastEnders in February 2018 to play Hayley, the cousin of Jessie Wallace’s Kat Moon.
She was involved in a major story line later that year when it emerged she had had an affair with Alfie Moon.
A representative for EastEnders has been contacted.
