Jessie Wallace was spotted in the same VIP box as notorious road rage killer Kenneth Noye during a Elvis tribute concert at London’s O2 Arena this week.
The EastEnders actress, 52, enjoyed lavish £200-per-person hospitality alongside a number of other guests, including the gangster, 76, who received 25-year sentence for murdering Stephen Cameron, 21, on a slip road on the M25, in May 1996 – before fleeing to Spain.
Noye also fatally stabbed uncover policeman John Fordman in 1985 only to be acquitted on the grounds of self-defence.
Jessie, who plays Kat Slater in the BBC soap, was herself arrested in 2022 after kneeing a policeman in the groin following a boozy night out, with the copper later quitting his job after feeling ‘unsupported and exposed’ when she was let off with a caution.
In new snaps obtained by The Sun Jessie can be seen dressed all in black and sat apart from Kenneth as they enjoyed the show with their respective parties.

Murderer: The EastEnders actress enjoyed lavish £200-per-person hospitality alongside a number of other guests, including the gangster, 76 (pictured in February) who received 25-year sentence for murdering Stephen Cameron, 21, on a slip road on the M25, in May 1996
A retired policeman told the publication: ‘You’ve got the police killer and the police batterer together in one box’.
While an onlooker said: ‘They were both in the corporate box living it up. Seeing Kat Slater swaying along to Elvis beside Kenny Noye was surreal to say the least — not to mention incredibly uncomfortable.’
Adding: ‘Boxes at the O2 have to be signed off in advance, and names and contact details given. People were aware who else was in attendance and Kenneth was gossiped about in advance — everyone was pretty stunned he was going.
MailOnline have contacted Jessie’s reps for comment.
Footage emerged last year showing the moment that Jessie was arrested following a night out, with some witnesses claiming she was kicked out of a nightclub for being ‘gobby’.
As well as kneeing an officer, it was alleged that the actress also said ‘f*** off you fat c***’, before being placed into a police van.
At the time, a witness said Wallace was ‘out of control’ with ‘truly shocking behaviour’.
Another said: ‘She was acting very drunken disorderly, assaulting police officers and swearing constantly.

‘She then went on to shout out, “I hope this is all entertainment for you c***s”, whilst barging through the middle of our group. She then ended up banging on the door of the police wagon she was in.
‘Bouncers had chucked her out due to how gobby and annoying she was being to others.’
She was detained on suspicion of assaulting a police officer as well as drunk and disorderly conduct in Bury St Edmunds.
Meanwhile Noye was arrested in Spain in August 1997 and extradited back to the UK to face justice for the murder of Stephen Cameron after two years on the run.
The father-of-two is now back on the streets after serving 21 years in jail for Stephen’s fatal stabbing.

Crook: Actor Jack Lowden played Noye in six-part BBC drama The Gold about the Brink’s-Mat robbery
Danielle Cable, who witnessed the horror crime aged just 17 and helped identify her boyfriend’s killer after being taken to Spain by British detectives ahead of his arrest, is still in witness protection.
Noye arranged in the 1980s for most of the gold bars stolen in the infamous Brink’s Mat robbery to be melted down and sold.
An armed gang had stolen £26million worth of gold, diamonds and cash from a warehouse at the Heathrow International Trading Estate.
The heist was turned into a BBC drama ealier this year called The Gold starring Hugh Bonneville, Dominic Cooper, Charlotte Spencer and Jack Lowden as Noye.
