Casey Anne Rothery (born 1993) is a British child actress. From the age of three months to ten years old, Rothery played Lucy Beale in the BBC soap opera EastEnders.

In 2004, Rothery (along with Joseph Shade who played twin brother Peter) were sacked from EastEnders and replaced with new actors (Melissa Suffield and James Martin) as EastEnders producers intended to develop their characters and wanted more mature actors for this.
As a baby and young child, Rothery worked primarily with Adam Woodyatt, who played her father Ian Beale and Michelle Collins, who played her mother Cindy as well as the two young actors who played her on-screen brothers.
Casey Anne has also actyed alongside Gillian Taylforth who played grandmother Kathy Beale, Tamzin Outhwaite, who played first stepmother Melanie Healy and Hannah Waterman, who played her nanny and second stepmother. Edward Savage took over the role of her elder brother Steven, while Joseph Shade took over the role of her twin brother Peter.
Rothery worked briefly with the child who plays her baby brother Bobby, Jill Halfpenny who played Ian's friend Kate and Laurie Brett who plays Ian's current girlfriend Jane Collins before Melissa Suffield took over the role of Lucy.
