Jordan Johnson, played by newly cast Joivan Wade, is set to make an astonishing return to EastEnders in the coming weeks.
Worried about reports of Jordan’s bad behaviour, Denise is intent on finding her step-son. Denise has already opened Pandora’s Box and made contact with her imprisoned serial killer ex-husband, Lucas. And now, searching for Jordan, Denise doesn’t know what she’s letting herself in for.
Jordan left Walford in 2010 to live with his aunt but returns an angry and damaged young man who will turn Denise and her family’s lives upside down. Denise can still see the good in her step-son but viewers will be left fearing that volatile Jordan takes very much after his father. As Denise makes inroads with Jordan, we will all fear that she’s putting herself, her family and the entire Square in danger.
Lucas Johnson, played by Don Gilet, will also be returning to EastEnders this Spring.
With both Lucas and Jordan back, Denise will be forced to face a very difficult and life changing new chapter in her life. Will she get out of it alive?
“Coming into EastEnders is an absolute dream," Joivan tells us. "Jordan is going through a very tough time and needs people in his corner but with a Dad like Lucas will he be able to trust anyone? It’s going to be brilliant to play him and I can’t wait to get started."
