Her return saw her reveal she had a secret son – Roman – with Martin Fowler, ultimately reuniting with him before his tragic death last month.<\/p>\n

However Ruby has no idea that Martin confessed he really loved ex Stacey Slater just minutes before he died.<\/p>\n

And now with Martin\u2019s funeral<\/a> approaching, The Sun can exclusively reveal that Louisa\u2019s time in Walford is over.<\/p>\n

Speaking to The Sun, she confirmed her stint is now over – but is hoping for a return in future.<\/p>\n

\u201cI left EastEnders<\/a> a couple of weeks ago,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was only back for six months, to tie in with the 40th and Martin\u2019s exit.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s always good to come and go and I never see it as a big thing when I leave because I can be back again!\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s all been left open.\u201d<\/p>\n

Louisa was speaking at an event to launch the Pinner Telephone Kiosk Library and careers hub in Middlesex.<\/p>\n

She first appeared on the soap in 2005 as the daughter of feared gangster Johnny Allen.<\/p>\n

The actress stayed for a year before Johnny was killed off, leaving Ruby with his vast fortune and criminal enterprise.<\/p>\n

She returned in 2018 having run into ex best pal Stacey Slater, and quickly re-establishing herself in Walford.<\/p>\n

In 2021, Ruby left after being framed for a drugs crime and went to prison<\/a> pregnant with Martin Fowler\u2019s son.<\/p>\n
