Jacqueline Jossa sends fans wild after hinting at EastEnders comeback

Jacqueline Jossa has sent fans wild after hinting at an EastEnders comeback.

The actress, 27, shared a cryptic Instagram post which said that fans might "see Lauren Branning again soon".

Jac left the hit soap in 2018, however fans are now wondering if this could mean she's heading back into Walford following her winning stint on I'm A Celebrity.

Posting a snap of herself as her character Lauren, she penned: "I had such an amazing time and LOVED Lauren Branning with ALL of my heart! I miss you lozza, maybe see you again one day!

"Amazing week of eps congrats everyone involved!

"Some pics of my time on the show! Wow. Memories."

And last month, mum-of-two Jac revealed her excitement before reuniting with her EastEnders castmates at the National Television Awards.

Despite leaving the show to pursue other projects, Jacqueline has said she'd never rule out a return to the soap.

She told the Daily Star last year: "I think the time would have to be right for EastEnders – the time isn't right yet for me. It’s too soon, I think, to be honest. I don’t think Lauren Branning is missed necessarily."

Jake Wood, who plays on-screen dad Max Branning, previously said he'd love to have Jacqueline back in the fold.

Speaking to Digital Spy, he said the door is always open for the mum to return.

"Lauren hasn't been killed off, obviously Max is still in the show and she has a lot of other family in it as well. It's like any other character that is still out there – it's always open."

He added: "I always thought she would return eventually – she just needed some time at home to be a mum, which she's done. So now I think it will just be up to her when she's ready.

"I don't know whether that is now or not, but I would love her to come back.

"I think she's a great actress and a real asset to the show. It would be great."
