EastEnders fans 'work out' Max Branning's next lover and it's not Cindy or Stacey


EastEnders fans are convinced they have figured out who Max Branning's new love interest will be when he returns to the show, and it's not Cindy Beale

Confirmation has arrived that the former motor dealer is making his way back to Albert Square this autumn, and audiences have already begun theorising about which lady will find herself in his embrace upon his comeback. Fans think Nicola Michell will be Max's new lover (Image: BBC/Kieron McCarron)He departed Walford in 2021 when his liaison with Linda Carter (Kellie Bright) concluded after she disclosed her genuine emotions for spouse Mick, and his following interference led to brother Jack Branning's (Scott Maslen) suspension from his position with the police force. With daughter Lauren Branning ( Jacqueline Jossa) set to become part of the Beale family through marriage, rebellious teen son Oscar Branning (Pierre Moullier) returning to Walford, Stacey Slater (Lacey Turner) facing life as a widow, and a yet-to-be-revealed secret daughter with former flame Linda in the mix, Max is bracing for a whirlwind of drama upon his comeback to the Square.
