EastEnders’ Linda Faces Her Tragic Fate?
EastEnders legend Kellie Bright has fuelled rumors of her iconic alter-ego Linda being killed off on the BBC soap. Viewers know that our beloved character is spiraling out of control ever since her drinking habits took over her. We know that Linda has been struggling with alcohol recently ever since she stabbed Keanu Taylor last Christmas, and the guilt of it is killing her. With Bernie back in Walford, things have got even more worse.
And Linda actress Kellie has opened up about it on The One Show. She said that Linda is “losing her battle with alcoholism. That’s kind of a way to summarise, really. It’s not good.” The popular star also added, “Linda’s an alcoholic, and she’s a mess. Things will go very, very dark for Linda next week.” She also applauded the EastEnders bosses for trying to create a relatable storyline for their viewers.
Bright also highlighted that the BBC show is trying to show the ugly side of addiction, and it will be difficult for people to watch. This week, viewers will see Elaine getting back from Honeymoon and taking charge of her daughter’s life. The spoilers suggest that she will issue Linda an ultimatum, which will involve her making a big decision. Our sources tell us that Linda will, unfortunately, choose the bottle over anything else.
