EastEnders star Jamie Borthwick has reportedly been in a 'secret feud' with his former co-star Danielle Harold . The Lola Pearce actress played Jamie's on-screen wife until two years ago when she passed away from a glioblastoma brain tumour. Her storyline also saw her have a one-night stand with her third cousin once removed Ben Mitchell, her fight to keep newborn daughter Lexi out of care and more.
Jamie and Danielle regularly attended red carpet events together over the years, with fans watching their friendship on social media. However, it was recently reported the two were in a secret feud after it was noticed the two unfollowed each other on Instagram last week. It comes as it was claimed Danielle and co-star Max Bowden were in a secret relationship for a number of years before their split.
A source said: "Danielle and Max dated for a number of years. Of course, it was known among the EastEnders cast and everyone thought they were sweet together." The source claimed the relationship 'didn't end on the best terms' before noting they no longer follow each other on Instagram.
Both Jamie and Max don't follow Danielle. She also doesn't follow the duo. The Mirror have reached out to their representatives for comment.
Max previously paid tribute to his co-star Danielle on Instagram following her EastEnders exit, writing: “Watching you work so closely every day has been inspiring but hasn’t quite topped being your friend.” Since leaving the soap, Danielle appeared on I'm A.
