EastEnders fans were left in tears on Thursday's episode as Roxy Mitchell made a "heartbreaking" return. Roxy, played by Rita Simons, made an emotional return as her daughter Amy struggled with her mental health following the breakdown of her father, Jack Branning's, marriage amid her step-mum Denise Fox's infidelity.
As the family attended a group therapy session, Amy was encouraged to open up about her emotions surrounding the loss of her mum, who drowned alongside her sister Ronnie back in 2017.
As she considered this, Amy zoned out of the session and Roxy then appeared as a figment of her daughter's imagination, leaving fans in tears over the "heartbreaking" scenes.
Taking to Twitter, one person said: "Tears, My heart this scene was absolutely incredible heartbreaking just as much to see beautiful Roxy tonight. #EastEnders." A different account put: "No because im in tears over roxy and amy #EastEnders." Another follower wrote: "#eastenders OMG tonight’s episode had me in tears @OfficialRita you are amazing the minute I saw Roxy’s bracelets I had a massive smile on my face !!
