Actor Devon Anderson, who plays Billie Jackson, is leaving the BBC One soap EastEnders.

Actor Devon Anderson, who plays Billie Jackson, is leaving the BBC One soap EastEnders. Digital Spy are reporting that the actor will leave the soap next month having reprised his role of Billie earlier this year to tie in with the soaps 25th anniversary. Actress Lindsay Coulson, who plays Carol Jackson, also returned to the soap at the same time.

We won’t spoil how Billie Jackson leaves the soap – unlike Digital Spy who has full details – but his exit will see the return of his father Alan (Howard Anthony) and grandmother Blossom (Mona Hammond). Both last appeared in EastEnders in 1997 when they were written out of the soap.
