SOAP SPOILERS: Details on Sonia Fowler’s explosive EastEnders exit next week revealed

All is certainly not fair in love and war.

EastEnders‘ Sonia Fowler has spent the last few months selflessly caring for girlfriend Tina’s mother Sylvie, who suffers from Alzheimers, but now she’s finally been offered an exciting opportunity for herself her family and friends are not happy about it.

The Walford nurse, played by Natalie Cassidy, will look forward to a clean break away from Albert Square this week after being offered a new job.

However, Sonia’s decision to move away – alone – causes quite a lot of grief for her family and friends, leading to some explosive arguments.

Firstly, Sonia’s other half Tina is horrified to learn Sonia is leaving her at short notice and refusing to let her join her. The Carter family get involved, with Shirley offering poor Sonia a piece of her mind.

If the wrath of the Carter family isn’t enough, Sonia’s daughter Bex angrily confronts her on her plans to move away without her. Their argument ends with Bex refusing to talk to her mother or say goodbye – will mother and daughter make amends before Sonia leaves?

All we know is that Sonia will definitely make her departure next week, as Cassidy departs for maternity leave.
