Linda Carter’s Possible Exit From EastEnders
Kellie Bright, who plays Linda Carter, left the role after her sobbing storylines. Many viewers also disliked her recent storylines. Fans think that earlier in the series, Linda had been drinking with the group and had not experienced any serious consequences.
Some are having doubts as to whether Kellie Bright herself is not satisfied with the way her character is being treated. According to some sources, Kellie Bright may be taking a short break for various personal reasons, and her involvement in a documentary. However, others believe that a longer-term leave could be in the cards.

However, if Linda departs, her other essential plots will be at stake. This is especially true for the return of Max and the Annie reveal. The story with Max it’s focused around Linda, and we don’t know if she will be back. She has also been the person who was most visible at The Vic. And was a participant in some of the most unforgettable happenings in EastEnders.
Fans Comment And Theories On Her Future
Elsewhere, forum participants have been expressing their views and speculations concerning Kellie Bright and Linda Carter. One admirer commented, “I personally believe she still has a contract. She is simply taking time off, isn’t she? Most probably, she will be back before Christmas.”
Another one commented, “Before Dean, her character was a complaining, annoying, spoiled little princess. After Dean, she was an alcoholic, which was utterly incomprehensible. In my opinion, 12 years is long enough; I wish her to leave, but I guess she won’t.”

One of the users of the forum commented, “Under these circumstances, Max’s return would even become more meaningless than ever if Linda were not there for Max to learn about Annie.” The others were considering the change in her character, and one of them said, “The intoxicated Linda is terrible, but the sober one is undoubtedly one of the finest characters in the series.
She is much better than Sharon and Stacey.” Fans are eager to see if Kellie Bright will return. For more EastEnders spoilers and updates, keep following Soap Opera Daily.
