Taking to Twitter, one fan said: “Bring Lauren back… Whit needs her best friend and Max needs more family around #Eastenders.”
“I actually enjoyed those Max & Whitney scenes! But it made me think how Max could really benefit from a Lauren return. I don’t really like her but it would help revive Max’s character. he was good tonight! #EastEnders,” wrote another.
A third added: “Still waiting for Lauren to inevitably rock up one-day #EastEnders.”
“Can Louie & Lauren return to ee soon?! please and thankyou #EastEnders,” asked a fourth.
With it seemingly a good time to bring her character back to the fold, could she be in Walford once more sooner rather than later?
EastEnders airs Mondays at 8pm and Tuesday at 7:30pm on ITV
