Heartbroken, Sharon fled Walford once more and she’s not been back since. Sharon was reunited with sister Vicki but then she left Walford again (Credit: BBC) Is Letitia Dean returning to EastEnders as Sharon Watts? Finally, though, there’s some hope! In Thursday’s episode, Phil was giving his nephew Mark Fowler a bit of a talking to at the boxing gym, which Sharon owns with Phil. Phil had managed to get Mark out of the huge trouble he was in with the drugs gang. Except Mark needs to find a lot of money to get himself off the hook – and Phil told him in no uncertain terms that he needed to stay out of trouble. So Mr Mitchell put Mark in charge – for the time being. He said he could manage the gym “until Sharon gets back”. No official announcement has been made by EastEnders about whether Letitia Dean has left for good or if she’s coming back. But this latest mention of the Queen of the Vic got the viewers excited! Of course, we know Grant Mitchell – Sharon’s ex-husband and Mark’s dad – is returning soon. Could that be a reason for Shaz to come home? We can’t wait for Sharon’s return (Credit: BBC) Celebrations! Fans were quick to celebrate the mention of Ms Watts on social media. “OMG Sharon is returning!” wrote one excited viewer. “I hope she’s back soon,” another fan wrote. “A Sharon-less AND Stacey-less Walford is tough to handle.’ “We need Stacey, Suki & Sharon back so much,” said another viewer. Does this latest mention of Sharon mean she’s returning soon? What do you think?
