EastEnders star James Farrar teases shock gay throuple for Zack Hudson
Watch our video above as James reveals what two Walford residents his character Zack would get with
EASTENDERS star James Farrar has joked the soap could be about to see a gay throuple.
The actor – who plays Zack Hudson – first arrived in Albert Square in 2021 and was introduced as the younger brother of Sharon Watts.
During his three years in Walford, fans have watched ladies man Zack hookup with some of EastEnders’ most iconic characters.
He eventually settled with Whitney Dean and the couple went on to have a baby.
But in true soap style Whitney was devastated when she learned he had cheated with Lauren Branning.
It ultimately led to her leaving Albert Square and Zack single once again.
With his charm appearing to fail on the ladies, James has opened up on the next chapter for his alter ego.
Speaking to The Sun and the Inside Soap Awards, the 37-year-old said: “I think he loves his boys, doesn’t he? I think Ravi and Martin is the brotherhood there.”
James then joked his character could have a gay throuple with his best mates.
He said: “Why not? Why not? See, Stan, does anything can happen.”
James’ character has been at the forefront of some of the BBC soap’s biggest storylines recently, such as Zack being diagnosed with HIV.
The plot saw viewers watch as Zack came to terms with leaving with the virus, while struggling to tell his family and friends.
