EastEnders’ Sonia Fowler gets bombshell news from the police – but fans are distracted by her solicitor
The nurse is being put through hell but fans aren't focused on her
SONIA Fowler’s face dropped on EastEnders as she was delivered a shocking bombshell on the soap.
The pregnant NHS worker saw herself hauled into the police station to face questions over Debbie’s death.
Viewers of the BBC soap opera know that calculated Reiss took a dramatic move by killing his comatose ex-wife in order to be free of paying for her care costs.
He thought he had created a fool-proof plan but it soon became clear that the police knew something was amiss.
Upon realising she had been murdered, the Walford cops quickly arrested both Reiss and Sonia.
However, in a bombshell move, Sonia was floored to realise that only she was being charged after Reiss was let free to go.
The police officer said to a stunned Sonia: “We’ve got physical evidence linking you to the crime, you had a clear and pressing motive and you don’t have an alibi.
“I’ve spoken to the CPS and they agree with me.
“We are going to charge you with the murder of Deborah Colwell.”
Whilst Sonia attempted to contemplate the hard-hitting news, fans of the show instead could only focus on one other thing – her solicitor.
Viewers were left swooning over the “hot” guest star as they begged for him to be made a regular character.
The hardcore fans even suggested a potential plot line for the solicitor in order to keep him firmly in Albert Square.
Writing online, one fan said: “Oh wow Sonia’s second solicitor is hot and sassy.”
Another added: “Keep Sonia’s fabulous new solicitor and pair him with Johnny – they’d be HOT.”
Before a third penned: “Not to be tmi but can we make this solicitor a main character so i have some eye candy during this dire Reiss and Sonia storyline. Thanks.”
