EastEnders' Zainab Masood left Walford in 2013 and after the icon got a mention on the soap this week fans reckon she could return - but predict a heartbreaking death twist
EastEnders has offered an update on soap icon Zainab Masood – but fans are fearing a major death twist is on the cards.
The character, played by Nina Wadia, was the outspoken feisty matriarch of the Masood clan and rocked up to Walford back in 2007. And she was involved in big storylines, including her struggles with her son’s sexuality and the return of her abusive first husband Yusef.
But in 2013, Zainab said goodbye to Albert Square when she left Walford with her son Kamil to pursue a new life in Pakistan. Whereas in real life, Nina said she exited from EastEnders in a bid to pursue other acting roles.
However, over in the famous square this week, the soap has given fans an update on Zainab. Viewers will recall how Zainab’s granddaughter Jade recently arrived in Walford.
