EastEnders actress Danielle Harold has opened up about her "beautiful" final episode on the BBC One soap, which will feature her character Lola Pearce's heartbreaking death. The 29 year old has wrapped up filming the heartbreaking scenes, after Lola received her brain tumour diagnosis last year, which included her enduring long and gruelling bouts of chemo.Tragically, Lola was told that the treatment wasn't working, and that she had just months to live - with her death expected to be shown on the soap very soon.
Danielle, who has played the character for eight years, has confessed that she "didn't want to read the script" that would detail her character's final scenes, as she said she didn't pick them up from the collection desk for "ages" as she wanted to wait "until I was ready". She then said that it took her a further two weeks to actually sit down and read the script, which left her in tears as she found out what she'd be filming.
Danielle told The Sun: "‘I got to the second page and was in absolute bits. "It was the hardest thing to read but it’s also the most beautiful episode of EastEnders I’ve ever read." Cast and crew from EastEnders were recently spotted filming funeral scenes, which means that Lola's death is likely to come within the next few weeks.
The BBC One soap is also planning a huge celebration of her life in the coming weeks, which writers revealed to Metro is called Lola-fest. Many show fans are devastated that Danielle is leaving the show as Lola, as some made it clear on a recent glamorous snap that Danielle posted to Instagram.
