Linda Carter has been in a state of turmoil since the presumed death of her beloved Mick. As the landlady of the Queen Vic struggles to cope, fans are buzzing with speculation about a potential new romance between Linda and the Square’s newcomer, Teddy Mitchell.

Since Mick vanished into the sea on Christmas Day 2022, Linda has been drowning in despair, further compounded by the guilt over Ken’s brutal demise six months earlier. She has sought solace at the bottom of a bottle, grappling with her tormented past and the harrowing fallout from these events.

Love has been off the table for the mother of five since Mick disappeared, but things might be changing. Teddy Mitchell arrived in Walford this week with his sons, Harry and Barney, on a mission to find Stevie. It was soon revealed that Teddy is Stevie Mitchell’s secret son, and the family delved into their connections within the Square.

So far, there’s been no indication that Teddy is married, nor has there been any mention of the mother of his children, suggesting he might be unattached. With his roguish charm and true East End flair, some viewers are rooting for Teddy to sweep Linda off her feet. Reports from The Daily Star highlight fans’ enthusiasm, with one eager fan tweeting, “I reckon Linda and Teddy would make a nice couple.” Another fan suggested, “He needs to be a tough guy Mitchell, not a golf caddy.”

Speculation is rife about Teddy’s potential romantic prospects, with some fans even considering Denise or Sharon as possible love interests. One supporter added, “I’m here for Linda and Teddy,” while another envisioned, “Another Mitchell for Sharon to get with.”

Curiosity about Teddy Mitchell’s enigmatic romantic history is growing, with one viewer eagerly posting, “I can’t wait to find out the back story of Teddy.” The burning question on everyone’s lips is whether Teddy will turn heads among the ladies of Walford. Only time will tell.
