Upcoming EastEnders spoilers: New Vic owner revealed, two shock returns and one sad goodbye

That was quite a week in EastEnders spoilers, wasn’t it?! And the drama is going to keep on coming as new show boss Ben Wadey

gets his teeth stuck in and keeps on bringing the good stuff.

On screen this week, we saw Bernie swindle the Panesars out of thousands and then leave for a new life alongside cousin Felix. Suki tried to stop her, but the other members of The Six (minus Sharon – where is she?!) persuaded her it was only money and she should let Bernie be free.

Kat also found out Alfie wasn’t in Australia and was in touch with Stacey. But Stacey lied it was a cancer scare to buy Alfie some more time.

We already know in spoilers for July 7-11, that Harry gets involved in the Panesars’ drug deals as they desperately try to recoup their losses and save the businesses.

Elsewhere, Lauren’s kiss with Zack will be exposed and Johnny and Callum can’t keep their hands off each other.

But beyond that? Read on for our pick of the best upcoming spoilers for EastEnders.

1. New owner of The Vic revealed

Linda Carter has announced her intentions to sell her half of The Vic. Elaine is not on board with this idea though, so will she find a new investor?

Or will someone else take over the reigns at the iconic boozer?

Rumours have been swirling that Kat Slater will become the new landlady. But we’ve yet to find out where she’ll get the money and if she does manage to get it whether her bid will be succesful.

Will it be Kat? Or will someone else swoop in and take the helm?

3. Oscar Branning’s shock return to Walford

Lauren Branning’s life is set to get even more complicated when her little brother Oscar

pitches up. He’s now 17, having last been seen on screen in 2017. But EastEnders is keeping tight-lipped about just why Oscar is back.

Ben Wadey has teased: “I’m very excited to bring Oscar Branning back to Walford and introduce viewers to him now that he’s all grown up. Oscar is very much a Branning which means there’s going to be plenty of drama in store this summer. We’re delighted to welcome Pierre as he takes on the role and can’t wait for viewers to see him bring Oscar to life.”

Pierre Moullier is joining the show as Oscar. He has said: “It’s pretty surreal to join EastEnders – it keeps hitting me that I’m actually on Albert Square! When I found out I was joining the Brannings, it was so exciting as they are such an iconic family, and I love that there are so many skeletons in the closet. Oscar is so much fun to play, and the audience should be prepared for the unexpected as he’s a complex guy!”

And rumours refuse to go away that his father, Max Branning, will be hot on Oscar’s heels coming back to Walford…

4. Bye Bye Freddie in EastEnders spoilers

Bobby Brazier is making an exit from

EastEnders, it has been revealed. An EastEnders rep said: “We can confirm that Bobby Brazier will be leaving EastEnders, and we wish him all the best for the future.”

The Freddie Slater still has some time to go now as bosses have reportedly planned a big story for his exit.

So how will we say goodbye to Bobby? Will he leave to be with his mum, Little Mo? It’s not been revealed whether the door will be left open for his return, but we’re keeping our finger crossed Freddie leaves alive.

5. Zoe Slater comes home

We briefly saw Zoe Slater last month when she revealed she was in serious trouble and her family would never forgive her if they found out what she’s done.

We know Zoe will return full-time later this year, but how will she come back? And what has she done?

Fans are convinced Zoe is Joel’s real mum – could this be the case? We know she’s got into a mess with some men in Spain, owing them money, so is her comeback related to that? We can’t wait to see the reunion between her and Kat!
