Natalie Cassidy is set to return to ‘EastEnders’ as Sonia Fowler, as her on-screen daughter’s bullying woes continue.
These first look pictures show Sonia’s arrival in the Square, and she wastes no time in stepping on to work out exactly what’s going on with Rebecca.
Monday’s (17 April) episode will see Sonia attempting to get more information out of Bex, and she’ll be left stunned when it’s revealed that Louise Mitchell has been involved in the bullying.
A determined Sonia then confronts Louise, before telling Martin that she’s going to Bex’s school to sort things out once and for all. But can she help solve her daughter’s problems?
Sonia was last seen in Walford back in September 2016, departing once again when actress Natalie’s maternity leave begun.
In recent weeks, a number of soap fans have questioned whether a reappearance could be on the horizon, given Bex’s many ongoing issues.
The character was at the centre of the action on January’s bus crash, while she’s still dealing with the news that Michelle Fowler was sleeping with her boyfriend behind her back.
These ‘EastEnders’ scenes air from Monday 17 April. Catch up on all the latest soap news and spoilers here.
