Jean Slater is a recurring fictional character in the popular BBC soap opera EastEnders. She is played by Gillian Wright. She appeared in November 2004 briefly and in December 2005. She returned as a recurring character in June 2006 and is set to return again for a longer stint from November 2006.

Jean is the mother of the popular character Stacey Slater. She rejected Stacey, who went to live with her great uncle Charlie.

She suffers from bipolar disorder and Stacey left her because she couldn't cope on her own. Stacey found out in December 2005 that Jean's condition had worsened, and went to live with her temporarily to help her out. When Jean attempted suicide and got sectioned, Stacey gave up trying to look after her and returned to Walford.

In her past, Jean's husband, Brian Slater, died in an accident on a building site, which could have resulted in her illness. She also has an estranged son named Sean, who ran away and joined the army when Brian died. Sean turned up in Walford in August 2006.

Jean returned in June 2006 when she was re-housed to a new flat. Stacey went to help her unpack, when she cut herself on a broken picture frame and had to be taken to hospital. She met Stacey's boyfriend Bradley Branning and took a shine to him, saying that he was perfect for Stacey. Jean appeared again in November 2006 when Stacey attempted to reacquaint her mother with Sean.
