Who is Lisa Faulkner?

Lisa Faulkner was born February 19, 1972 in Merton, London.

She was educated in an all-girls school in Kingston, but tragedy struck when her mum Julie died of throat cancer when she was 16.

Lisa was scouted by a modelling agency and by the 1990s she was acting in TV dramas such Dangerfield.

She has since mixed her acting duties with being a presenter and a celebrity chef, penning her first cookery book in tribute to her late mother – titling it ‘Recipes from my Mother for my Daughter’.

Who did Lisa Faulkner play in EastEnders?

The actress played “stylish, sophisticated” businesswoman Fi Browning in EastEnders, aiding Max Branning in his revenge plot against the people of Walford in 2017.

But the role was only for a short time, spanning just 61 episodes.

Her character Fi eventually left the square just after Christmas 2017 when learning the true nature of her father, James Willmott-Brown, and handed the deeds of the café back to Kathy Beale.

What else has Lisa Faulkner been in?

Lisa is most famed for her role in Holby City, in which she played Victoria Merrick in 43 episodes running between 1999-2001.

Victoria was a much-loved character on the show, but was stabbed to death in her own home.

She has also appeared in several long-running TV series, including Murder in Suburbia, Brookside and New Street Law.

After winning Celebrity MasterChef in 2010, Lisa turned her focus to TV hosting duties, specifically cooking programmes including What’s Cooking? on Channel 4, while also appearing on This Morning and Celebrity Gogglebox alongside her friend Nicola Stephenson.

Lisa worked in husband John’s London restaurant, Smiths of Smithfield, shortly after her MasterChef win, before creating a ITV programme called John and Lisa’s Weekend Kitchen in 2019.
