Samantha Zoe Womack (née Janus; born 2 November 1972) is an English actress, singer and director, in film, television and stage.
In recent years she has been best known for playing the role of Ronnie Mitchell in EastEnders, but made her name in the mid-1990s as Mandy Wilkins in Game On. She also represented the United Kingdom in the 1991 Eurovision Song Contest.
Womack was born in Brighton. Her singer-songwriter father, Noel Janus (born Janes), left the family when she was six, and soon after, her model-actress mother, Diana O'Hanlon, married a doctor and the family moved to Edinburgh. Janus lived on the QE2 with her choreographer grandmother, Sheila Holt (a former actress and choreographer to magician David Nixon for a short time). Womack has a younger half-sister, Zoe. During an appearance on Big Star's Little Star in 2014, it was revealed that she attended the same school as members of All Saints.
Aged fifteen, she left home for a life in squats, drinking, smoking and taking drugs. She eventually turned her life around, and attended the Sylvia Young Theatre School in London.

Genres: Drama,Here's a little story 'bout regret
Doesn't have an ending, it's not finished yet
But from what I know this far it's just a peep at who
we are
And an incomplete sentence that you said
Now it's time to terminate our trust
Even though to you and me it doesn't matter much
We can close our eyes and picture better days ahead
Even now the phone begins to ring
And our life hangs on a string
And today we start to learn just what that means
And somehow we're faced with the fact
That you won't ever get this back
This story's short just like I said
Can't seem to get it through my thick head
Started out with hope and now the ending is
suppressed
Smothered like a fire in your dreams
Or will we burn for you tomorrow in your dreams
Or will we pass out in the airport like a freak upon
your seat
