Dean Gaffney and Natalie Cassidy, who played iconic siblings Robbie and Sonia Jackson on EastEnders, will reunite for The Great Celebrity Bake Off: Christmas Special 2024. This sparks renewed speculation about their off-screen relationship, which has been the subject of rumors for years.
EastEnders stars Dean Gaffney and Natalie Cassidy are set to reunite on-screen in The Great Celebrity Bake Off: Christmas Special 2024, sparking fresh speculation about their relationship off screen. As Christmas approaches, fans are thrilled to see the soap's iconic siblings Sonia and Robbie Jackson (played by Natalie and Dean) join forces once again. This marks their first on-screen collaboration since 2019, when Dean's character Robbie was written out of the show.
In the series, Robbie departed for India with his partner, but rumour has it that Dean's real-life departure was due to concerns over his conduct outside the programme. He later shared with the Daily Mail that he felt the decision was 'harsh' but 'understood' it. Dean's personal life has been tumultuous, with a recent breakup, an appearance on Celebs Go Dating in 2020, and a reported presence on the dating app Hinge mere months ago. It seems he remains single. Natalie's life has followed a more conventional path. The actress has been in a long-term relationship with an EastEnders cameraman, with whom she has two daughters, reports the Mirror. Rumours of a close bond between Dean and Natalie off screen have persisted throughout their 30-year acquaintance. There were even claims of low-key meetings, prompting the release of statements downplaying their connection. Natalie has a 'soft spot' for Dean 15 years ago, after their stint on the BBC soap had come to an end, rumours began circulating that the former co-stars had been secretly meeting. A source disclosed to Digital Spy: 'Before we knew they met up, Nat was always texting and speaking to Dean on the phone.' Further details from the source suggested: 'She told her best friend that she's always had a soft spot for him.' Reports at the time implied the duo became close, and that the actress had tried kept her fondness for Dean under the radar. Natalie and Ben Porter got engaged in 2008
