Natalie Cassidy thinks Wendy Richard was picked out by God to die.

The former 'EastEnders' actress regarded her co-star - who played battleaxe Pauline Fowler in the BBC soap - as a mother and was devastated when she lost her battle with cancer earlier this year.

Natalie, whose own mum died when she was younger, said: "I knew she had chemo, but I never expected her to lose her battle. I thought she'd get through it, so it was a great shock to me when she died.

It's not for me. I get scared of stuff like that. I don't think you should contact people. I'd rather think that what I believe is right.

"The way I see it, she was ready to go and I believe someone up there takes the best ones first. That's how I deal with it.

"Like my mum - she fought cancer, got over the cancer, then three weeks later died of a heart attack, so in my head, that is someone who isn't meant to be here.

"I'm quite a spiritual person and I do believe that they take the best people first."

Although she misses her mum and Wendy, Natalie - who will star in this year's 'Strictly Come Dancing' - would never try to contact them through a psychic.

She added to Britain's OK! magazine: "It's not for me. I get scared of stuff like that. I don't think you should contact people. I'd rather think that what I believe is right."
