EastEnders star Maisie Smith opens up on Keegan’s infidelity

EastEnders spoilers follow.

EastEnders’ Maisie Smith has commented on her character Tiffany Butcher-Baker’s reaction to her husband Keegan’s affair.

In an upcoming episode, Vinny (Shiv Jalota) tells Tiffany that Keegan (Zack Morris) cheated on her with Dotty (Milly Zero).

“I think she laughs as soon as Vinny tells her because it was just the most incredible thing that anyone could have told her that one of her close friends, not less her half-cousin, has just slept with her husband and that they are all living in the same house!” said blacksmith.

“She thought it must be a joke because it was utterly incomprehensible,” she added.

Anger overwhelms Tiffany when Keegan admits cheating on her.

“[When] he said it was true, she had a sudden anger and she slapped him in the face, which is not like Tiffany, “said Smith.

“She’s not like a Bianca in that sense, she’s not that confrontational so it must have been quite a shock for her to hit someone in the face. I don’t think anyone would expect that.”

The actress also confessed that she was “shocked” when she first found out EastEnders was going in that direction.

“I talked to Milly and Zack about it and they said, ‘Oh no, we’re going to get so much hate,’ especially since the audience can see the story from Tiffany’s perspective,” said Smith.

“Keegan acts out of anger, but he’s unaware of what Tiffany is actually going through.

Will Tiffany Keegan ever be able to forgive?

“I don’t know it’s such a tremendous thing to forgive, but maybe in time it could, but it will be so hard to forget what happened,” she said.

As for Dotty, Smith affirms, “That’s a different story.”

“I don’t think she loves Dotty enough to forgive her for betraying her, so I think resurrecting her will be a more difficult relationship.”

EastEnders will air these scenes on Monday, August 23 at 8:05 p.m., Tuesday, August 24 at 7:30 p.m. and Thursday, August 26 at 7:40 p.m. on BBC One.
