What Is The Truth About Louise Mitchell?
It seems like Lisa Fowler’s claim about Louise Mitchell’s whereabouts was not true after all, and Lisa seemingly had some other ulterior motive. Turns out Louise is doing fine and had no idea that Lisa had left Portugal with Peggy and that the two were in Walford.
Lisa’s lies are further unveiled as Louise herself revealed that contrary to what was said, she is not off the rails due to her addiction issues and is also not in any kind of monetary debt. It was further discovered that she was instead on a spa trip with her aunt Sam Mitchell.
Louise was infuriated when she found out that Lisa had taken Peggy out of the country without even talking to her about it. When Phil insisted that she had already handed over his stolen money, it was later revealed that she had left it with the police, though it also turned out to be a lie.
Lucy Benjamin, who plays the role of Lisa, has stated that she cannot wait to make her return as Lisa Fowler again. She left for Spain with Louise and granddaughter Peggy in 2019. The actress assured that Lisa will surely bring with her plenty of drama for many of the characters on the Square while admitting this is why playing Lisa is such a delight.
