As she opened the Walford Gazette, she spotted herself on page 3.
Karen shared her delight with ex Mitch Baker (Roger Griffiths) and son Keanu Taylor (Danny Walters), leaving viewers watching at home in stitches.
Taking to Twitter, one fan penned: “Karen in the paper” alongside a series of crying laughing face emojis
Another added: “Karen on page 3 OMG.”
A third person posted: “#EastEnders so Karen’s made it in the papers.”
“Karen looking at the newpaper article she’s in about the play haha,” a fourth said.
It comes after Karen’s son Keanu returned to the square after two years away.

Keanu bid farewell to Albert Square in February 2020 following a tumultuous few years as a Walford resident.
Since coming back, Keanu has revealed his plan to destroy Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden).
Keanu had been in a relationship with Phil’s daughter Louise (Tilly Keeper), and she gave birth to their daughter, named Peggy after her late grandmother.
But Sharon also fell pregnant by Keanu, and named their son Albie.

When Phil found out, he ordered son Ben (Max Bowden) to deal with Keanu, so Ben instructed Martin Fowler (James Bye) to kill him.
Martin couldn’t go through with it, so a passing Linda Carter (Kellie Bright) helped him fake the Keanu’s death.
Last week, Keanu had a secret meeting with DCI Keeble (Alison Newman), who is currently using the absent Phil for her own dodgy gains.
As she approached Keanu, he said he knew she was trying to take down Phil – and he wanted in.
EastEnders airs Monday to Thursday on BBC One at 7.30pm
