Stevie Mitchell's Shocking EastEnders Exit

EastEnders fans were left shocked as Stevie Mitchell, played by Alan Ford, exited the show just six months after his arrival. Stevie's departure follows the revelation that he put his son Billy into care due to his resemblance to his deceased mother, which he found unbearable. Stevie also left behind a substantial sum of money and a family photo, departing in a black cab after a clash with Phil Mitchell. Fans are also concerned about other characters, such as Martin Fowler, played by James Bye, potentially leaving due to reduced storylines. Meanwhile, former EastEnders actor Ben Hardy opened up about feeling creatively stifled during his time on the show, which prompted his exit and subsequent success in Hollywood.
