The showbiz world was left gobsmacked this weekend when EastEnders stars Max Bowden and Shona McGarty went Instagram official with their long-rumoured relationship – just days before his ex is due to give birth.
The couple had grown “incredibly close” in recent months. They have both worked alongside one another on the BBC One soap as Ben Mitchell and Whitney Dean for several years now.
Their relationship is alleged to have blossomed after Max split from his pregnant ex, Roisin Buckle, who is due to give birth any day now.
