EASTENDERS cast members have hinted at how long Cindy Beale will stick around after her recent shock return to Walford. <\/p>\n
The character played by Michelle Collins was presumed dead after a mishap during childbirth.<\/p>\n

Her on-screen husband Ian Beale was told she had passed away while giving birth to their daughter Cindy, after being arrested for attempting to murder him.<\/p>\n
But this June Cindy left residents of Albert Square reeling after making an explosive return to the soap.<\/p>\n
It was revealed that the fan favourite was alive and in a witness protection program.<\/p>\n
In shocking scenes she was reunited with her former husband George Knight, explaining how she had been forced to hide under the fake name Rose Knight after taking a plea deal and ratting out fellow inmate Jackie Ford. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
And last night at the NTAs, Michelle revealed how long her character is likely to stay in Albert Square after the surprising reappearance.<\/p>\n
At first the actress remained coy, responding "Who?" when she was asked about Cindy's time back on the soap.<\/p>\n
But Colin Salmon was a bit more forthcoming, telling the Sun Online: "I think she will [stick around]. She's loving her daughters and she's loving Peter. <\/p>\n
"There are some lovely stories there. Michelle is great. Lovely having her."<\/p>\n

A small sack for everyone. It's give give give." <\/p>\n Molly Rainford, who also recently appeared on the show as Anna Knight, added: "It's been so cool. It's so good to see the family in this light, and it's so nice for the viewers to see a little more of us with the storyline. <\/p>\n "When we came in we were a bit explosive, but we've had our little moments – just living and becoming part of Walford. I feel like now we've really made our mark on it.<\/p>\n "It feels very cool, but we've got some powerhouses in this family anyway, so Cindy is only just the cherry on top of those. Like mother like daughter." <\/p>\n EastEnders airs from Monday to Thursday at 7.30pm on BBC One.<\/strong><\/p>\n Do you have a story for The Sun Showbiz team?<\/p>\n Email digishowbiz@the-sun.co.uk or call us direct on 0207 782 4220 .<\/p>\n We pay for videos too.
