Roxy Mitchell
Roxanne Lizette "Roxy" Mitchell (previously Slater) is a fictional character from the BBC soap opera EastEnders, portrayed by Rita Simons. Roxy arrived in Walford with her sister Ronnie (played by Samantha Womack) on 24 July 2007 and decided to move permanently to Walford from Ibiza where they ran a bar together. Roxy is the younger of the two sisters. She is described as the "fire", as opposed to Ronnie's "ice".
Roxy's major storylines have seen her break off her engagement with her fiancé, fall out with her sister on several occasions, and assume relationships with Jase Dyer (Stephen Lord) and Sean Slater (Robert Kazinsky), as well as betraying Ronnie by having sex with her on-off boyfriend, Jack Branning (Scott Maslen) and later becoming embroiled in a custody battle with Jack over their daughter, Amy Mitchell (Amelie Conway). Roxy has also had a relationship with The Queen Victoria's landlord Alfie Moon (Shane Richie), and a feud with Alfie's ex-wife, Kat Moon (Jessie Wallace). The character has proved popular with viewers, with Simons winning 'Best Newcomer' award at the Digital Spy Soap Awards in 2008 for her role in the soap opera.
