But she has sparked hope among fans that Danny Dyer could make a comeback as Mick after sharing a sweet snap of them together recently.

In the photo both stars beamed as Danny, 46, put an arm around Kellie while she snapped a photo.

She wrote: "A little photo of me and @officialdannydyer for all the Mick and Linda fans out there."

During the explosive Christmas Day episode in 2022, Linda was driven over a cliff and into the sea by Mick's new wife Janine [Charlie Brooks].

Mick - despite it being known the character was not a strong swimmer - jumped in to save Linda but his body was never found and he was presumed dead.

However Charlie, 43, proved there's no hard feelings between the actors in real life as she commented on Kellie's photo: NOT JEALOUS AT ALL."

Fans immediately rushed to speculate on Danny's EastEnders return.

One wrote: "Please tell me Mick didn’t die & him & Linda will live happily ever after."
