And now spoilers indicate that Carmel, played by actress Bonnie Langford, will soon be leaving. She told The Daily Star in an interview, “I’ve had a wonderful three and a half years at EastEnders and it’s been a privilege to be part of such an iconic show. My current storyline has been such an incredible experience and I’m honored to be part of something so powerful and poignant.”
Thankfully, fans will still be seeing Carmel around, but how she will leave EastEnders is anyone’s guess. There’s been some speculation that writers might revisit her Brugada heart syndrome or that she might have an ending that is just as devastating as her son’s.
Bonnie added, “However as I’ve known since the beginning of this storyline, it would always lead to Carmel having to take a break from Walford. I’m not leaving just yet though and there is still plenty more to come from Carmel.”
