Maisie Sparks Buzz About a Comeback!
Maisie Smith left the London-based soap in 2014 but has returned multiple times post-departure. She made a short return in 2016 before earning a more lasting comeback in 2018. During her latest stint, Tiffany had a choppy affair with Keegan Baker (Zack Morris). Later, Butcher took off to Germany with him to stay with brother Liam on EastEnders. Smith recently opened up about setting foot in the Square again. The former Strictly Come Dancing star said, “Not at the minute, no, but it’s one of those places, you just never know.” And “There’s always a place to go back to, but not right now.”
EastEnders has seen the comeback of numerous characters in recent times. Earlier, Tiffany’s former onscreen mum, Bianca Butcher, was all set to come back to EastEnders. Patsy Palmer is returning to the town in the wake of stepdaughter Whitney Dean’s departure from the soap. Moreover, soap boss Chris Clenshaw spoke about Patsy’s comeback on the soap. “I’m thrilled to welcome the fabulous Patsy back to the iconic role of Bianca Jackson,” Chris said.
Additionally, he said that Bianca remains a fan-favourite despite leaving the soap in 2019. The EastEnders producer praised also Bianca’s character – “she is thrust into the heart of the drama alongside step daughter Whitney.” How will Bianca align with the current storyline?
