Patsy Palmer, 49, caused controversy after she attended a march in LA to protest against a mandatory Covid-19 vaccine. The EastEnders actress posted a number of snaps of herself holding up banners at the protest, which divided her 369,000 Instagram followers.
In one picture Patsy could be seen holding up a sign that read “freedom over force”, while another stated “not anti vax WE ARE ANTI MANDATE”.
She also shared the following words to her Instagram story: “Anti Vaxx has become a very angry word.
“I am PRO freedom for myself and my children. I am PRO LOVE for the human race. I AM NOT ANTI VAXX.
“What anyone chooses to do with their body is their choice.”

“Why is that such a terrible thing all of a sudden,” she continued.
“Did we vote PRO CHOICE against abortion laws. YES WE DID!
“So why isn’t MEDICAL FREEDOM something we should all be fighting for.
“When my child is healthy and happy and cannot go to the school he wants to and is forced to wear a mask outside in 100 defree heat playing sport I’m ANTI THAT.
“‘I’M A MOTHER. I WANT THE BEST FOR ALL CHILDREN. Just to make that clear!”(sic)
The soap star lives in the US with her children Charley, 29, Fenton, 20, Emilia, 19, and Bertie, 10.
The march comes after it was announced in September that the Los Angeles school district had made it mandatory for students 12 and older to have the vaccine if they attend in-person classes.
Those taking part in extra curricular activities, such as sport or music, are required to be vaccinated by the end of October, which has caused outrage amongst some parents.
