EastEnders fans 'work out' Roxy Mitchell's return after daughter's tragic accident
EastEnders fans are speculating about the comeback of soap icon Roxy Mitchel with a twist. The character, portrayed by Rita Simons, first appeared in 2007 and quickly became a fan favourite alongside her sister Ronnie, played by Samantha Womack.
Roxy was involved in numerous major storylines, from failed marriages to becoming the landlady of the Queen Vic, ensuring her time in Albert Square was never dull.
However, in 2017, both Roxy and Ronnie were tragically written out of the show after a decade, meeting their untimely end by drowning together on Ronnie's wedding day in one of the soap's most contentious episodes.
Currently, in the soap, Roxy's daughter Amy, played by Ellie Dadd, finds herself in a terrifying situation at the bar, Peggy's. Walford locals like Peter (Thomas Law) and Bobby (Clay Milner Russell) arrived at the venue and quickly realised things were spiralling out of control.
With Peggy's dangerously overcrowded and all exits blocked due to the massive crowds, panic ensued among the club-goers, including underage teenager Amy Mitchell who had sneaked in. Although the crowd eventually managed to escape, more drama unfolded as Amy was rushed into an ambulance and suffered a cardiac arrest seconds later, leading to her being hurried to hospital, reports the Daily Star.
Since her hospitalisation, fans have been speculating that Amy's mother Roxy might reappear as a hallucination.
Last year, viewers saw Roxy return in a similar fashion during one of Amy's therapy sessions.
On social media platforms, such as Reddit, fans are expressing their hopes for Roxy's return. One fan commented: "I think it'd be awesome to have some more dream scenes with Amy and Roxy... that's what I am hoping for and then Amy recovers."
Another fan speculated about the potential death of Amy's character, saying: "If the character really were to die, then I believe Rita would return for all of a minute to take her hand-in-hand into Heaven."
Discussing the likelihood of Roxy's return at a critical moment, a third fan wrote: "If Roxy appeared to her when she was struggling in a counselling session, then surely she would be on her deathbed."
They added confidently on another platform: "Amy's death brings back Roxy Mitchell, case closed thank you and goodbye."
One more viewer pondered the possibility of a ghostly cameo from Roxy, suggesting: "We'd better be getting a ghost of Roxy cameo, whilst Amy's having CPR, either telling Amy to walk with her (and Paddington) towards the light or to say it's not her time yet but they'll be together one day."
