EastEnders’ Zoe Slater has just left Walford, but she is returning soon, and this time she is here to stay. It has been two decades since Michelle Ryan was part of the soap, and she recently reprised Zoe’s role for a short but explosive stint. But more is on the way. Scroll down to find out more about what is in store next.
EastEnders brings Zoe and Kat back face-to-face.
Zoe’s return surprised fans after they learnt she had been staying with Stacey. She slipped out the window before Kat realised they lived under the same roof.
Zoe went to Barcelona, but Alfie promised to bring her back, and it looks like he will. Michelle Ryan is set to return to the BBC soap later this summer, and someone will be coming with her.
Michelle shared on Instagram that she has already been filming with Jessie Wallace, giving fans an exciting hint of what’s coming.
Zoe’s return plot guarantees high-stakes drama. Michelle revealed she has been filming night shoots and preparing during the day. Though she kept details confidential, she hinted that the scripts were very special.
“I’m so excited,” she said. “The energy here is fantastic, and I’m happy to be back, especially with the scenes we are shooting right now.”
She said the scripts felt so different this time, they might actually get her to watch them since she rarely does.
Michelle ended the video with a smile, letting fans know, “Zoe’s coming back. I’m just happy to be back.” For more EastEnders spoilers and updates, keep following Soap Opera Daily.
