The 41-year-old actor announced that it was "one of the hardest decisions" he's ever had to make, but he wanted to expand his horizons and take on some new projects.

Fans have been on the edge of their seats waiting to find out what these new ventures will be, and some now believe Ross is going to join the cast of EastEnders.

The award winning star has recently been making a lot of TikToks cosplaying as Sharon Watts from the soap.

In one he can be seen lip syncing to one of the stroppy blonde's iconic moments, saying: "What the hell are you doing in my house! Get out of my way or I'll slap you. Such a nice face as well.

The clips have led to fan speculation, with one person taking to social media saying: "Ross Adams has been doing loads of EastEnders related TikToks since he announced he was leaving Hollyoaks now i may be reading into it too much but..."

Someone replied: "I’ll be so happy if he does join the square."

Another added: "Was saying this a few days ago. can definitely see it happening."

Select fans even had an idea of what role they want him to play, gushing: "I kinda want to see him as a Mitchell. He deserves to be related to the icon that is Peggy Mitchell!"

But someone else thought he would be better suited as a love interest for Felix.

One viewer who was particularly on the ball suggested Ross swap soaps even before he had announced he was leaving Hollyoaks, saying: "Scott is wasted in Hollyoaks. He should join EastEnders he’d get better storylines."
