Is Jada Lennox returning to EastEnders this Christmas?
She left the Square earlier this year.
Christmas is a time for unexpected returns in soapland, and EastEnders may honour this unwritten rule by bringing back Jada Lennox.
Jada's (Kelsey Calladine-Smith) last scenes in the Square, which aired in August of this year, were nothing short of dramatic. Her hasty exit means that a possible return for the character will see her own the past mistakes she so desperately tried to leave behind.
In the summer, Jada agreed to do the dirty work for Janine Butcher (Charlie Brooks) in her scheming against her fiancé's ex-wife, Linda Carter (Kellie Bright).
Jada complied with Janine's request to plant empty alcohol bottles in Linda's house and then to call social services on her. The inspection resulted in Linda and her daughter Annie being separated after a bruise was found on the baby's arm.
Wrestling with her own guilt, Jada confessed the truth to Sharon (Letitia Dean) but continued lying to Linda, who suspected Janine was behind this vile attempt at framing her. Threatened by Janine, Jada fled Walford with her own daughter Alyssa, leaving Linda in a terrible position.

Is Jada Lennox returning to EastEnders at Christmas?
Yes, Jada Lennox will return to EastEnders on Christmas Day.
Jada is invited by Sharon to visit for Christmas and brings her daughter Alyssa to Christmas dinner.
The return of Jada does not go down well with Linda but she promises to stay out of the way so that Sharon can spend some time with her granddaughter.
At the dinner, Jada drops a bombshell on Sharon, Martin Fowler (James Bye) and Zack Hudson (James Farrar).
In the aftermath, Sharon and Jada arrive at the Queen Vic, prompting Janine to work overtime to avoid Jada revealing the truth of what happened previously and even invites Shirley Carter (Linda Henry) and Linda to her Christmas dinner upstairs.
However, soon Jada and Sharon interrupt the dinner and revelations look set to be shared...
