EastEnders Sends Linda Packing As Kat Becomes The New Landlady
Linda’s done it. She handed the pub to Kat and walked away from the life she built inside those walls. Elaine gave her cruise tickets, thinking maybe getting away would help clear her head. Linda didn’t argue. She packed up quietly and looked around the place one last time.
She saw Mick’s shirt still hanging on the wall, and her eyes stayed on it longer than she planned.
She reached for his scarf near the bar, but Kat stopped her. She asked to keep it behind the bar for Mick’s memory to stay where it always was. Linda agreed, but it hurt more than she let on.
Oscar was her final worry. She begged him not to tell Max the truth about Annie. To her surprise, he stayed quiet, for now, at least. But Max is back, and that secret won’t stay buried forever.

But Kellie Bright could be off-screen for a while. The show hasn’t confirmed how long. And with the Max storyline heating up, there’s no way this secret stays buried.
