Maisie Smith to quit EastEnders?

OHMYGOSSIP — Maisie Smith has reportedly quit ‘EastEnders’.
The 19-year-old star – who joined the soap as Tiffany Butcher in 2008 when she was just six – is considering leaving at the end of her current contract, in order to pursue a Hollywood career like her former co-stars Ben Hardy and Himesh Patel.
A source told MailOnline: “Maisie is hugely ambitious and wants to test herself away from soaps.
“Starring in movies is a personal goal and seeing how well Ben and Himesh have done, it’s given her hope she could be the next box office star from ‘EastEnders’.
“The only stumbling block is whether Covid-19 and the knock-on effect of the pandemic will dilute the pool of acting opportunities.
“If it remains bleak, the sensible move might be staying put for another year. But the intention is to leave in October.”
Maisie won a host of new fans after competing in the most recent series of ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ and is hoping to capitalise on her newfound popularity but she has asked show bosses not to kill off Tiffany as she is keen to return in the future.
The insider added: “Maisie loves ‘EastEnders’ and idolises some of her co-stars, some of whom have been great role models for her.
“She believes the soap has been the perfect place to learn her trade and she owes them so much. Leaving will be a wrench but at least she knows she could return.”
