EastEnders star Shona McGarty has revealed that her character Whitney Dean is going to grow up a bit as she looks to Linda Carter for inspiration.
Whitney has been dating Linda’s (Kellie Bright) son Lee (Danny-Boy Hatchard) and the actress said that she would start to idealise the Carters, particularly Linda.
She told the Daily Star: “She starts to feel a real part of the Carters. They make her feel safe. They all have each other’s backs and she wants that.
“She starts looking up to Linda Carter more. She sees this strong woman who’s been through so much.
“Whitney’s going to change, get more classy and more grown up. She needs to lose the hoop earrings!”
Shona also added that she would love the chance to get a soap wedding one day, saying: “I think she’s definitely found love with Lee. I’d love to get married in EastEnders.”
