She'll return for a short stint to mourn Martin.
Following the tragic death of Martin Fowler, his daughter Bex Fowler will return home to be with the distraught family, with Jasmine Armfield reprising the role for a short stint, five years after leaving EastEnders in 2020.
Devastated Bex will jet in after years spent travelling the world to be with her mum, Sonia and the rest of the family as they lay Martin to rest.
The tragedy will hit Bex hard as she tries to adjust to everything that’s happened in her absence, including Sonia’s incarceration for murder and the arrival of her newborn sister.
On returning to play Bex Fowler, Jasmine Armfield said "It’s wonderful to be back at EastEnders and to see so many familiar faces. It’s amazing for me to come home, but for Bex, it’s an absolutely devastating time because she’s lost her dad. She’s grown up a lot, having spent the past few years travelling, so we’re going to see a much more mature and grown-up version of Bex this time around."
To which Executive Producer, Chris Clenshaw added "We’re delighted to welcome Jasmine home to EastEnders as part of Martin’s farewell. There’s no way that Bex would miss her dad’s funeral, and Sonia needs her eldest daughter more than ever. It’s been five years in which Bex has gone out into the world, so she’ll come back with renewed wisdom and experience."
EastEnders continues Mondays to Thursdays at 7.30pm on BBC One with first look episodes available from 6am on BBC iPlayer
