Vicki Fowler (Alice Haig) has made a grand return to Albert Square – but without her long-term partner Spencer Moon (Christopher Parker).

The character has arrived back to her old haunt after 21 years away, with it quickly becoming apparent that a lot has changed in her life during that time.

Arriving to represent her mum grieving Michelle (Susan Tully/Jenna Russell) at Martin Fowler’s (James Bye) funeral, she had a lot of catching up to do with the locals.

Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean) was delighted to see her sister after so long, but immediately questioned where Spencer was.

Vicki admitted that she had moved on with new fella Ross Marshall (Alex Walkinshaw) as a result of Spencer’s infidelity, but she wasn’t being exactly truthful.

Alfie Moon (Shane Richie) had heard on the grapevine that Vicki was back in Walford, and immediately struggled to accept the fact that his brother would cheat on her.

After a swift phone call, the truth was outed. She was the one who had cheated on him, with his best pal Ross!

But who is Spencer Moon, and where is actor Christopher Parker now?

Who is Spencer Moon in EastEnders?

Spencer Moon is the youngest brother of Alfie, and first appeared on 29th November 2002.

He came to live in the area with their grandmother Nana Moon (Hilda Braid) when Alfie took over the lease on The Queen Vic pub.

Both of his parents had been killed when he was young, and he was subsequently raised by Nana.

For a while he chased after Kelly Taylor (Brooke Kinsella), though the relationship was doomed when Alfie offered her some cash for a date night and she assumed Spencer was trying to buy her body.

He often brought trouble to Alfie’s door – one one occasion he sold stolen goods for Mickey Miller (Joe Swash), that led to Alfie being beaten up by gangsters.

Spencer was forced to move to Australia in 2004 when he was caught trying to retrieve drugs that had been stashed by cousin Danny Moon (Jake Maskall) in Pauline Fowler’s (Wendy Richard) house.

What happened between Spencer and Vicki in EastEnders?

Childhood sweethearts Vicki and Spencer first met when she (then played by Scarlett Alice Johnson) arrived from the Florida to live with her grandmother Pauline in 2003.

The stalwart was less than impressed to see that the two were spending so much time together, and ordered him out of the house when he was invited for coffee (or cawfee, as young Vicki pronounced it!)

Following a one night stand, Vicki fell pregnant but didn’t want to keep the child.

Sharon – who believed she was infertile – offered her younger sister a whopping £10k so that she could raise it as her own, but she decided to have an abortion.

Spencer was left devastated, as he believed he was ready to be a father. His resentment didn’t last long, as they soon reconciled when their vehicle broke down on the Scottish moors.

Whilst they never fully made amends, it was revealed many years later that they had reconnected in Australia and were planning to open a bar together.

Where is actor Christopher Parker now?

Former actor Christopher, 41, first appeared in an uncredited part in soap opera London’s Burning.

He was also a stunt double in 2002’s Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.

Other presenting roles included CD:UK, MTV News, Radio Disney and as entertainment reporter on ITV’s This Morning.

He also appeared in the second series of BBC drama Hotel Babylon, and presented Soap Star Bingo on the then new Gala Bingo TV Channel in 2009.

It also says that he represent individuals in other sectors of the media industry.
