People assumed Ben Mitchell was deaf in real life after seeing him portray a deaf guy in EastEnders.
Fans feel this might be the final episode for the EastEnders character, who has faced numerous challenges.
Ben Mitchell (Max Bowden) is becoming increasingly agitated as the month’s pass.
During a night out in January, the Walford troublemaker sees his spouse, Callum Highway (Tony Clay) being thrashed by members of a far-right group.
Ben’s life has gone sour since then, with him wishing to return to the closet and seeking out homophobes in the Square. However, as many EastEnders viewers are aware, more drama is on the way for Ben as his marriage crumbles.
Is Ben Mitchell Deaf In Real Life?
In real life, Ben Mitchell is not deaf. He does, however, play a deaf character in the BBC series EastEnders. Furthermore, his character was not deaf from the beginning, but his role encountered a fatal event in the middle of the play.
Following his accident injury, Ben was advised to see a doctor and have a hearing test to assess how much he could hear and the severity of his hearing loss.
Ben’s chronically damaged ear had worsened, according to the tests, and he’d also experienced substantial hearing loss in his good ear.

Ben Mitchell (Max Bowden) is having marital problems with his spouse/gay partner, Callum. During the previous night’s journey to Walford, his marriage to Callum Highway took a knock.
Tony Clay has opened up about his character’s pain over his husband kissing newcomer Lewis Butler.

Ben confided in Prince Albert manager and bartender Lewis after refusing to accept responsibility for his attacks, but their chat developed into a drunken kiss.
Sadly for Ben, his police officer spouse tracked him down and observed the entire incident.
