EastEnders' Cindy Beale will turn very bad, teases Michelle Collins
Collins has assured fans who think Cindy is "too nice" now that that's all about to change...
Following her shock return to EastEnders last year, some fans have raised concerns that Michelle Collins' Cindy appears to be 'too nice' and to have moved on from her villainous past - however, Collins has now confirmed that's all about to change.
Appearing on The One Show on Friday 26th April, alongside Doctor Who's Ncuti Gatwa and Millie Gibson, Collins was seen promoting two new films, but was quick to confirm that she is still also starring in the soap.
She told hosts Alex Jones and Roman Kemp: "I'm still very much in EastEnders and she's [Cindy's] still very much... she's kind of gonna get badder."
After a quick debate about the use of the word 'badder', Collins added: "I was just trying to think of a word that I can say because a lot of people have said Cindy is too nice."
Just what this new potential villainous streak entails remains to be seen, but the character certainly has previous. For instance, at one point in her previous stint on the show, she hired a hitman to kill Ian.

Collins' Cindy was seen getting a text from her daughter, which read "hope you're OK today", as it was the 10th anniversary of her other daughter Lucy Beale's death.
It transpired later that Ian had got in touch with Cindy Jr and told her how much it would mean for her mother to hear from her on that day.
