EastEnders fans demand Little Mo return for Freddie Slater exit

Kacey Ainsworth played Freddie's mum, Mo

Fans of EastEnders have demanded that Little Mo Slater return ahead of son Freddie’s impending exit from the soap. This comes as star Bobby Brazier announced that he would be departing the soap to seek ‘new opportunities.’

The character has been at something of a loose end in recent months, returning to Walford following actor Bobby’s real-life stint on Strictly. With young Bobby’s star only on the rise, and possibly exacerbated by rumours of off-screen family turmoil, the actor announced this weekend that he had decided to quit the soap.

With Freddie Slater now on the way out, fans have suggested that this could pave the way for the return of his mum, Little Mo.

As the bombshell news about Bobby’s exit landed, fans took to social media to share their thoughts. And, amid speculation as to how he might go, some called for the return of Freddie’s soap icon mum.

“We need a little Mo cameo appearance for Freddie’s exit,” wrote one fan on X, before laying out their reasons.

“We all thought she might return the moment Freddie’s return was first announced in 2021/22. It’s the 25th anniversary of the Slaters this year So a Little Mo cameo for Freddie’s exit would be perfect.”

Others concurred with this sentiment, with another fan saying: “”
