An EastEnders legend has quit the BBC soap as they've said goodbye to Walford - but fans have been left confused by the character's sudden departure from the square
Soap superstar Kathy Beale, played by Gillian Taylforth , has been a constant presence on the show since her first appearance in 1985. As one of the original characters from the inaugural episode, Kathy has been at the heart of numerous major storylines over the years.
Kathy, along with the other women of The Six, concealed the crime and ended up pinning it on Dean Wicks, played by Matt Di Angelo. Adding to her woes, Kathy was dealt another devastating blow recently when her son Ben, played by Max Bowden, was incarcerated, reports the Daily Star. In Monday's episode , released on iPlayer in the morning, it was disclosed that Ben's police officer husband Callum, played by Tony Clay, was scheduled to join them but was unable to get time off work.
