Rumour has it that EastEnders' resident tragic heroine Ronnie Mitchell (Samantha Womack) is to make friends with Owen Turner (Lee Ross) when he's released from prison.

According to Inside Soap, the pair become acquainted in some way and her decision to offer him a job could result in disastrous consequences.

A source said: "It's not clear how Ronnie and Owen will become acquainted but he'll be looking for a job following his release from prison and Ronnie may be looking for staff.

"Owen insists he's a reformed character but he's a desperate man, hell-bent on getting closer to Libby and Denise. Who knows what he'll do if anyone gets in his way."

They added: "Ronnie and Owen start to get closer - but is she dicing with danger?"

So, how's Ronnie in a position to be dishing out jobs? Does this mean she reinvests in R&R so soon after selling her share to her former lover Jack Branning (Scott Maslen)?

And just where will Owen live? As his three-year prison sentence for trying to kill his own daughter Libby (Belinda Owusu) draws to a close, he'll be winding up on the Square any time. His mother Liz (Kate Williams) is currently living at Dot (June Brown) and Jim's (John Bardon). Surely Owen won't move in with them, will he?
