Inside EastEnders' Max Bowden's loved-up mini break with stunning girlfriend

EastEnders star Max Bowden took some time out from filming to indulge in a loved-up mini break with his gorgeous girlfriend.

The actor, 27, who plays Ben Mitchell in the BBC soap, went to the Welcombe Spa in Stratford-Upon-Avon with beau Roisin Buckle.

The pair, who went Instagram official with their relationship in October, enjoyed all the trappings of the luxurious spa, which is nestled in Shakespeare Country.

Max shared a pic of the couple in front of a gorgeous sky and looked sharp wearing a black and white houndstooth jacket.

Roisin was cuddled up to the actor and stunned in a pair of chic black Prada sunglasses.

Captioning the snap, Max wrote: "'The course of true love never did run smooth' - William Shakespeare.

"Absolutely cringe but what a beautiful three days with this one."

Fans loved the cute post to which Roisin replied: "The love of my life," followed by a heart emoji.

The blonde bombshell also posted a video of herself lounging by the pool in the spa, which Max later shared on his Instagram Stories.

Last month the pair treated themselves to a mini break at Soho Farmhouse in Oxfordshire.

Posing another sweet snap with Roisin, Max wrote: "Country getaway [heart emoji]. Happy birthday @spark.marc."

Roisin is said to have been a "great comfort" for Max, who sadly lost three friends last year.

A source told MailOnline in 2021: "Max and his gorgeous girlfriend Roisin have been together since May.

"Roisin has been a great comfort to Max, who's suffered a lot of heartbreak recently, with the loss of a close friend in June, and then devastatingly his best friend last month."

The actor was overwhelmed in December when some of the EastEnders crew sent him card to let him know they were thinking of him.

It read: "Hey Max, just wanted to say we know you're not great at the moment, but we are always here if you need a rant or a cry.

"Keep doing your best because we think you're great."

The actor shared a photo of the card on social media with the caption: "I work with some amazing people."
