Rose Ayling-Ellis has been left gutted by Maddy Hill's EastEnders exit, telling her co-star she's "missing her already," after her final scenes aired on Thursday night.
And, while Rose paid tribute to Maddy, fans hit out producers for giving her an 'underwhelming' exit.
Reigning Strictly champion Rose took some time off the long-running BBC soap as she danced her way to ballroom glory last year, but has once again been back at the heart of the action on Albert Square in recent months, sharing plenty of scenes with Maddy, who played her on-screen half sister Nancy Carter.
