EastEnders Sharon’s return date ‘sealed’ as fans spot ‘clue’ – and it’s not long
EastEnders’ Sharon Watts hasn’t been seen in Walford since January - but now fans reckon the soap icon’s return is imminent after spotting a ‘clue’ from a past episode
EastEnders’ Sharon Watts could be returning to Walford any minute now after fans claimed they spotted a ‘clue.’
The soap icon, played by Letitia Dean, has been a regular in the square for decades – making her debut back in 1985. Since then, Sharon has been involved in several dramatic storylines.
However, she hasn’t been seen on the soap since January, when she fled the square with her son Albie. Her shock exit came amid the huge Christmas storyline that saw her fiancé Keanu Taylor (Danny Walters) get murdered.
Fans of the BBC soap finally saw the Christmas victim revealed on Christmas Day to be Keanu after months of speculation and waiting. He ended up getting stabbed by Linda Carter (Kellie Bright) after he attempted to strangle Sharon.
Even though Keanu was no longer a physical threat, his death wasn’t the end of their torment. The rest of The Six women, Stacey Slater, Suki Panesar, Linda, Sharon, Denise Fox (Diane Parish) and Kathy Beale desperately covered up the grisly scene at the Queen Vic. They then ended up hiding his body at the burnt-out cafe, owned by Kathy.
Shortly after, things took a dramatic turn when Sharon fled Walford with Albie. In an episode from January, Sharon was then seen arriving at a tube station with Albie.
Pulling along a suitcase, she told her son they were heading off to the airport. Stacey was later shocked to find out from Zack that Sharon had gone away to Australia for a while to visit her friend Michelle.
Since then, fans have been longing for Sharon to make a return. Especially as it’s all been kicking off in Walford with The Six following their murder cover-up.
However, fans are certain they have worked out when Sharon will be back after spotting a ‘clue’ from an old episode. On X, formerly known as Twitter, one fan shared a picture of Sharon’s passport.
Alongside the snap, they wrote: “Shazza passport runs out in October so she has to fly back from Australia before that.” Someone else replied: “I’ll be raging if we have to wait till then! Surely she’d have to come back earlier.”
A third chimed in and quipped: “She’ll have to be back by April.” Another viewer mused: “She might be back later this month or next month.”
