Max Bowden's Controversial Exit
Axed EastEnders actor Max Bowden was caught on video delivering a foul-mouthed rant to fans as he exited the set of the BBC1 soap. The incident took place just after Bowden filmed his final scenes as Ben Mitchell, a role he has played for the past five years.
Behaviour on Set
According to HOAR, Bowden's contract with the show was not renewed after four years due to concerns about his behavior on set. The actor has reportedly been disciplined by show bosses as a result. However, Bowden remains proud of his time on the show and is looking forward to new projects.
Life Offscreen
The decision not to renew Bowden's contract followed discussions with BBC executives about his personal life in 2022. While Bowden was considered a talented actor and professional on set, there were concerns that his partying lifestyle outside of work could become a distraction.
Relationship Drama
In 2022, Bowden began dating his co-star Shona McGarty, who plays Whitney Dean, while his former partner Roisin Buckle was pregnant with their child. However, Bowden's relationship with McGarty ended six months later. Last year, McGarty announced her departure from EastEnders after 15 years.
Response from Max Bowden
Bowden has since responded to the video, stating that it does not accurately represent his behavior. He claims to have been expressing his excitement for the future and what's to come. The actor remains focused on his career and upcoming projects.
No comment has been provided by an EastEnders spokesperson regarding the incident.
