Former EastEnders star Samantha Womack has refused to return to the BBC soap as well as any other because she admitted she always ends up falling out with people and having "on set bust-ups".

Instead, the 49 year old has opted to focus her career on working in the theatre instead. Sam, who played Ronnie Mitchell - sister to Roxy Mitchell (Rita Simons) - was an icon in Walford and also had the most memorable way out of the soap when her character died in dramatic drowning scenes alongside Roxy on her wedding day in 2017.

While it was only fitting the pair left the soap together - an audition scene with the duo in recently surfaced online - many fans are still disappointed about their untimely exit to this day after Sam spent 10 years in.
