Hollyoaks fans convinced EastEnders legend Rita Simons is playing a recast character after shock axing
Another added: "I dunno why its such a secret. With it being a secret I'm leaning more towards a Mandy Richardson recast. If not then again a bit strange."The original Mandy actress Sarah Jayne Dunn, 41, was axed after 26 years on the Channel 4 soap.
She got into a disagreement with the bosses behind the programme about sharing pictures of herself on the subscription site, OnlyFans.At the time, a spokesperson for the show said: "We take our responsibility to our young audience very seriously and therefore the show does not allow any Hollyoaks cast members to be active on certain 18+ websites.
"We had hoped we could reach a resolution with Sarah that would allow her to remain in her role as Mandy, but we respect her choice to continue to produce content on OnlyFans. "In the past four years since her return to the show, her legacy character has been an integral part of some our of most important storylines and we will be very sad to see her go."Credit: Lime Pictures
