Kellie's full-time return to EastEnders comes following her departure last year to take maternity leave.

She and husband Paul Stocker welcomed their third child, baby Rudy, in July last year after undergoing IVF. The couple also have a 10-year-old and a 5-year-old.

"It's a really special and unique thing. I do feel very lucky I've got to experience it again," Kellie said after Rudy's birth. "But now, 100%, I feel the family is complete."

Linda was last seen regularly on EastEnders in September 2021 when the pub landlady left Walford to keep the identity of her baby's father, Max Branning (Jake Wood), a secret.

She did make a brief appearance during a Christmas storyline when Janine found Linda working in another pub.

EastEnders airs on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays on BBC One.
