EastEnders fans speculate new romance for Linda Carter with hunky Walford newcomer

EastEnders enthusiasts are buzzing with speculation about a budding romance between Linda Carter and the Square's newcomer Teddy Mitchell.

Since Mick Carter vanished at sea on Christmas Day 2022, Linda has been in turmoil, especially after being responsible for Keanu's demise six months prior. She's been seeking solace in alcohol to numb her pain and cope with the guilt of Keanu's death.

With her husband Mick gone, love seemed off the table for the mother of five, but could there be a twist of fate on the horizon? Teddy Mitchell made his entrance into Walford this week alongside his sons Harry and Barney, as they searched for Stevie.

It wasn't long before Ted revealed he's the secret son of Stevie Mitchell, hinting at more familial connections within the Square.

There's been no hint of Teddy being married, nor any mention of the boys' mother, suggesting he might just be single. His charming demeanour and East End charisma have led some fans to believe he could be the ideal match for Linda, reports the Daily Star.

Fans are already rooting for Linda and Teddy to pair up, with one viewer posting on Twitter: "I reckon Linda and Teddy would make a nice couple #eastenders."

Curiosity is buzzing in Albert Square as fans are eager to peel back the layers of Teddy Mitchell's enigmatic romantic history. One viewer couldn't contain their anticipation, posting: "I can't wait to find out the back story of Teddy Mitchell #EastEnders."

The question on everyone's lips: Will any of Walford's ladies fall for Teddy's charm? Only time will tell.
