Toby-Alexander Smith to be ‘full-time dad’ after EastEnders exit

OHMYGOSSIP — Toby-Alexander Smith is going to be a “full-time daddy” for as long as possible following his ‘EastEnders’ exit.
The 32-year-old star’s serial killer character Gray Atkins was arrested for three murders on last night’s (10.03.22) dramatic episode of the BBC One soap, and the actor now plans to be a father to his and his ‘Emmerdale’ actress partner Amy Walsh’s two-month-old daughter Bonnie before picking up any other roles.
When asked what’s next for him, he said: “Changing nappies, fixing breast pumps. If I stand up, I just rock from side to side – that’s my go-to now, 24-7.
“There’s potentially some things in the pipeline but right now I am very happy to be a full-time daddy for as long as I can be.”
In last night’s ‘EastEnders’, Gray tried to evade capture from the police after confessing to the murder of his wife Chantelle Atkins (Jessica Plummer), and while on the run he battered Shirley Carter (Linda Henry).
Gray – who also killed Tina Carter (Luisa Bradshaw-White) and Kush Kazemi (Davood Ghadami) during his reign of terror – tried to jump off a bridge, but he was stopped by Whitney Dean (Shona McGarty) and Mitch Baker (Roger Griffiths), and Toby-Alexander thinks it would’ve been “wrong” if his character had taken the “easy way out”.
He told Digital Spy: “I think all of the audience have obviously wanted justice for Chantelle, Tina and Kush for so long and it was important that we showed that justice and that comeuppance.
“There was no room for him to have an easy way out and it would have been wrong if they’d have done that. I do think, from the audience’s perspective, it’s a satisfying ending to the storyline.”
