Anna’s biggest storylines have included her being spiked, being revealed as Cindy Beale’s (Michelle Collins) daughter and her love triangle with Bobby Beale (Clay Milner Russell) and Freddie Slater (Bobby Brazier).
During Monday’s (October 27) episode, which is available to stream now on BBC iPlayer, Anna mentioned she needs every penny for her “trip to Oz” and fans think this will be her reason for quitting Albert Square.
Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, one fan penned: “So Anna’s exit will her emigrating to Australia then in a couple of weeks. I wonder if Freddie will go with her? #EastEnders.”
Another added: “Is Anna dropping a hint to going in to the jungle mentioning her ‘Trip to Oz’?? #Eastenders.”
Anna’s love interest Freddie is also leaving Albert Square this year, it has been confirmed.
An EastEnders spokesperson confirmed to Metro: “We can confirm that Bobby Brazier will be leaving EastEnders, and we wish him all the best for the future.”
Bobby is reportedly looking to pursue other projects after playing Freddie for four years.
Elsewhere in the episode, Zoe Slater’s (Michelle Ryan) revelation that her long-lost son is not Dennis Rickman’s (Nigel Harman) played on Kat Moon’s (Jessie Wallace) mind as they prepared for quiz night at The Vic and Alfie Moon (Shane Richie) warned his wife to stay out of it.
Kat tried to talk to her daughter but she was distracted trying to find her missing cat.
Meanwhile, Vicki Fowler spoke to Ian Beale about Zoe’s son and seeing how much it means to Sharon Watts, he transfered her some money to help.
At the quiz night, Kat overheard Vicki talking to Ross Marshall and she makes a decision. Kat’s revelation caused commotion in The Vic as she revealed Zoe’s lie.
