Who Deserves The Title Of King And Queen Of Walford?
Many fans consider Den and Angie Watts the definitive original power couple. The duo’s divorce episode received a massive viewership. Hence, for many Den stays the only true king. Others are on Pat and Frank Butcher’s side.
For viewers, the two remain an essential royalty. Their long history and iconic fashion choices made them pillars of the community. Many believe Pat and Frank were the heart of the show during its most memorable years.
Meanwhile current contenders also include Phil Mitchell. Viewers think he is the most common choice for the current king. Maybe the reason is that his dominant era is coming to an end. Elsewhere, for fans, his longevity and tough-guy persona have made him the face of the soap. Apart from him, some viewers believe that Max has the potential to lead the Square. Now for the title of Queen, Stacey Slater and Kat Moon are top choices.
What EastEnders Fans Are Saying On Reddit
One user said if it’s about a couple, then Kat and Alfie would be the perfect choice. Another shared, “Only on king of the Square, the legendary Den Watts.” To which a person added, “Definitely, regardless of what anyone thinks of him, he’ll always be the king. It’s a shame Dennis was killed off, because he also had a lot of potential.”
Someone else mentioned, “Jack Branning and Just Eat.” While another added, “Should have had Jack in the Just East advert instead of Craig David for the hilarity.” Also, many users mentioned, “Pat and Frank, Angie and Den and Kat and Alfie.” Meanwhile, a user shared, “How could I forget Pat and Frank! I’m talking individual characters, not just couples. Kat’s definitely queen material but Alfie? I like him, just never got the king vibe. When I think of EastEnders, Alfie doesn’t really come to mind, but Phil does, if you know what I mean.”
Someone else wrote, “Den and Angie were the og and Peggy was amazing, Pat and Frank were fabulous, and I have always loved Kat and Alfie.
