Nancy Carter is a fictional character from the BBC soap opera EastEnders, played by Maddy Hill. Nancy's first appearance is in a combination of the show's 4775th and 4776th episodes, originally broadcast in the United Kingdom on 1 January 2014. A member of the Carter family, Nancy is the daughter of Mick Carter (Danny Dyer) and Linda Carter (Kellie Bright). Her storylines include relationships with Wayne Ladlow (Malachi Kirby), Dexter Hartman (Khali Best) and Tamwar Masood (Himesh Patel), coping with the aftermath of her mother's rape, having epilepsy and a feud with her older brother Lee Carter (Danny Hatchard). It was announced that Maddy Hill would be leaving the show, with Nancy departing alongside Tamwar Masood (Himesh Patel) on 22 April 2016. Hill’s return was announced in February 2021, and Nancy reappeared between 13 April 2021 and 23 June 2022, when Hill decided to leave the show once again.[1] Hill was spotted filming with the cast and crew in October 2024, and she returned for a one-off appearance on 16 December 2024.[2]
