EastEnders fans have ‘worked out’ Kathy Beale’s new love interest – but it it’s bad news for another female resident.
Kathy (Gillian Taylforth) has been a staple on the soap for years – making her debut way back in 1985. As the one of soap’s original characters, appearing in the first ever episode, Kathy has been involved in some several big soap moments over the years.
From her rocky relationship with Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden) to coming back to Walford in 2015 after everyone thought she had died in a car crash, her storylines have left BBC soap viewers on the edge of their seats.
And over on the soap recently, things have taken a dramatic turn for the cafe owner. As well as her son Ben Mitchell (Max Bowden) getting sent to prison in the States, Kathy also had a big part to play in the murder of Keanu Taylor (Danny Walters) at Christmas.
