Rita Simons, best known for her role as Roxy Mitchell in EastEnders, has reportedly joined the cast of rival soap Hollyoaks. According to reports, Simons has signed up for an undisclosed role in the popular Channel 4 soap and will make her on-screen debut later this year.
The actress previously left EastEnders in 2017 but made a brief return to the show earlier this year. Her upcoming role in Hollyoaks marks her return to soap acting after a brief hiatus. While details about her character in Hollyoaks remain under wraps, a source revealed that Simons’ new role will certainly create some drama and stir the pot among the characters in the soap.
