AN EASTENDERS star has sparked fears that he’s quit the hit BBC soap after three years. 

The actor posted an emotional Instagram post adding a cryptic caption which has fuelled rumours he may be leaving.

Jaden Ladega, 19, plays Albert Square resident teen Denzel Danes and has been thrown into some huge storylines during his soap stint.

Denzel is the son of Howie and Delilah Danes.

He featured in a serious steroids injection plot which saw the teen use the drug to boost his physique.

The teen had been left battling insecurities after an unfortunate run in with bullies.

Whilst attempting to get buff, Denzel was introduced to anabolic steroids, which help build muscle tissue.

As his body image tanks and he becomes obsessed with training with Denzel becoming addicted to the drugs.

It showed him spiral into an eating disorder as he restricts calories and forces himself into a strict exercise regime, all fuelled by his steroid usage.

Jaden reposted a pic to his Instagram stories with a snap of himself outside the fictional Walford East station when he first appeared in the soap back in 2022.

Alongside the post, he penned the caption: “Will always be very grateful for this moment in my life, keep watching especially next week (side eye and heart emoji).”

Fans took to Digital Spy’s internet forum to share their reactions to the post.

One user said: “Hints from Jaden Ladega he may not be on the show anymore from his Instagram.

“He’s also been posting days in the life now and also saying how the new version of him is going to be going to the gym a lot and walking his dog. Which only Someone would have time to do if they weren’t really working as much,” they continued.

Another added: “One of the better teenage castings though, wish him well if true.”

“Oh that’s a shame, I like Denzel,” a third wrote.

A fourth chimed: “Denzel has been severely underused this year.”
