The BBC One soap aired a flash-forward episode which showed resident Lothario Max (Jake Wood) would be marrying a mystery bride on New Year's Day 2027.
These four candidates were Chelsea Fox (Zaraah Abrahams), Linda Carter (Kellie Bright), Cindy Beale (Michelle Collins), and Denise Fox (Diane Parish, absent in the episode).
However, this doesn't rule out a host of other possibilities – including other women already in Walford, such as Priya Nandra-Hart (Sophie Khan Levy) and Zoe Slater (Michelle Ryan), or departed characters like Max's second wife, Tanya Cross (Jo Joyner) or former mistress Stacey Slater (Lacey Turner).
The pair have no romantic history, but Chelsea was shown to be attracted to Max in the episodes running up to New Year's Day, and has previously been involved with his brother and her future step-father, Jack.
In second place, however, was Stacey Slater, who is currently living away from Walford in Brazil as actress Lacey Turner takes an indefinite break from the soap. Jake Wood did say Stacey was Max's "true love" after all...
In third place was Max's former lover and mother of his daughter, Annie (Lois Hawkins), Linda Carter, followed by the 'Someone else' option, as some viewers don't believe the bride is any of the obvious suspects.
Finally, Max's former lover Zoe Slater took eighth place, and Priya Nandra-Hart – who Max shared a knowing glance with on New Year's Eve – took the bottom spot.
Chelsea Fox - 27%Stacey Slater - 14%Linda Carter - 13%Someone else - 12%Cindy Beale - 11%Denise Fox - 8%Tanya Cross - 8%Zoe Slater - 5%Priya Nandra-Hart - 3%
We'll have to wait and see who Max eventually ends up with – and whether he or the bride can be trusted in this new relationship.
"We know how relationships are going to be slightly upset or upended. So [we've been] keeping an eye on all of that, and making sure that those details, as well as the big tent poles, are properly locked down has been a real challenge.
