As EastEnders fans eagerly anticipate the on-screen reunion of fiery mother-daughter duo Kat Moon and Zoe Slater, Jessie Wallace and Michelle Ryan reunited off-screen for a night out.
EastEnders fans rejoiced at seeing the duo together. One commented: ‘Cannot possibly wait for this mother and daughter reunion. Love both actresses so much’.
Another added: ‘Omg love this I cannot wait for the EastEnders reunion I just hope it’s a happy one and a permanent Zoe back on the show’.
A third fan referenced the iconic moment that Zoe’s true parentage was revealed: ‘She’s not your muvva…’.
Kat is still in the dark as to her daughters re-emergence. While Alfie Moon (Shane Richie) desperately searches for Zoe in a bid to re-unite the estranged mother and daughter, Kat is busy taking over as the new landlady of the Vic.
Spinning a web of deceit regarding ex-flame Hayley and a cancer scare, a defeated Alfie leaves a voicemail on Kat’s phone, admitting to his search for her wayward daughter.
After enlisting Stacey Slater to help in deleting the incriminating voicemail, a mugger seemingly does the job for him, snatching Kat’s phone…
Zoe’s return is the brainchild of new ‘Enders boss Ben Wadey, who looks to start his reign atop the BBC soap with a bang, bringing the fan-favourite Slater back to the show after a twenty year absence.
Addressing her upcoming full-time comeback, Michelle previously teased to us: ‘I can’t say too much as there is a lot of drama to come, but Zoe is a mess,’ said actress Michelle Ryan, discussing her long-awaited comeback.
‘She’s not the girl that left Walford twenty years ago, and she’s been really struggling on her own. She has her defences up, but this week you will see that she needs help, but whether she is willing to accept it is another story.’
