EastEnders Spoilers: Ben Mitchell Returning With A Surprise

EastEnders comings and goings indicate that there’s a good chance we might be seeing Ben Mitchell back on the small screen. As a matter of fact, several clues hint that he might be headed back to Walford with a new French boyfriend.

According to OK! Magazine, actor Harry Reid dropped some major clues about his character Ben Mitchell and his future on the soap. And from what we can tell, it looks like he might have some twists and turns in a new dramatic storyline.

Since leaving EastEnders, Harry has been working on Agatha Christie’s stage production of Witness for the Prosecution, but he made it pretty clear that he would love to return to the highly rated BBC soap. After all, fans would like to see where Ben is today as he had a mix reaction from viewers before he left the soap.

Speaking to the publication, Harry said, “I and the director always said that [Ben] went out to Calais and he’s gonna come back as Benjamin Michelle with a French boyfriend, which would be quite nice. But we I’ll see. I’m focusing 100 percent on Witness for the Prosecution right now.”

He added, “We have to think of it logically. He only got 10 grand because he lost the other heist money. I personally think that if he’s gonna go anywhere he’s going to go to Portugal to see Grant because you can get to Portugal from Calais easily.”

Of course, fans will just have to tune in to find out what will happen next!
