The producers worked with Macmillan Cancer Support on the storyline.
Over the next few months, Stuart will face challenges as he battles with his diagnosis and opening up to wife Rainie .
Ricky Champ said: ‘I feel honoured to be trusted with such an important storyline. We will see Stuart really struggle with the fact he has cancer, and to learn that its breast cancer is really difficult for him to understand. I hope by shedding a light on male breast cancer, more men will be aware of it and seek out a doctor if they notice anything wrong.’
EastEnders will continue to work closely with Macmillan Cancer Support as the storyline unfolds over time to ensure a realistic cancer experience is portrayed. Dany Bell, Strategic Advisor for Treatment, Medicines, Genomics at Macmillan Cancer Support, said: ‘It’s brilliant to see EastEnders release this very important and poignant storyline. We hope it encourages people to become more aware of the signs of breast cancer, regularly check their own chests and reach out for help if needed. Macmillan is here to offer advice and support to anyone impacted by the storyline and we encourage anyone experiencing signs or symptoms of cancer to visit their GP.
