EastEnders’ Max Bowden’s ex Roisin Buckle welcomes baby boy 5 months after their split

EastEnders star Max Bowden’s ex girlfriend Roisin Buckle has given birth to a healthy baby boy.

Max, 27, and Roisin, 37, began dating in October last year and announced they were expecting their first child together in April, before their relationship broke down during the pregnancy.

Roisin confirmed the happy news of her son's arrival as she posted a photo of their newborn son on Instagram with the caption: "Reginald Buckle born on the 19th September 2022."

"I haven’t been able to post until now as aside from having my hands full I’ve been in a complete bubble of love, bonding with my son and spending time getting to know each other."


"I know it’s cliche but I have never felt love like this I cannot even begin to explain. I did however come across this beautiful piece by @jessurlichs_writer which sums up the early stages for us both beautifully."

She then linked to a heartwarming post by Jessica Urlichs which perfectly described what she was feeling.

According to Roisin, she and Max have not been “on talking terms” following their split and throughout her pregnancy.

Max has since been rumoured to be in a new romance with his Eastenders co-star Shona McGarty, after he was seen leaving her home and the pair were spotted on various dates in recent weeks.

Earlier this Summer Max and Shona, 30, were pictured at a festival in Hertfordshire together, seemingly confirming their relationship – though neither party has addressed this.

New mum Roisin was reportedly left “devastated” when speculation emerged about her ex's new romance.


She opened up about her break-up with Max as she appeared on podcast One Mum and a Baby before giving birth.

Roisin said: “At the time, I was all over the place, crying, not being able to look at a future without him by my side.

“There was hope we may co-parent but I haven’t heard from him in about six weeks now so I’m not really sure where that stands.”

Roisin went on to say that she hopes to reconnect with Max, despite their sour ending. She continued: “The door is open and I would never stop him seeing his son so hopefully we hear from him.”

Roisin also revealed that Max had missed their baby’s scans after the split. She said: “He decided not to come. I was quite down and feeling vulnerable. It was really hard for me. Even on the day of the gender reveal I spent the morning crying.

“You’re going through what should be the most magical time of your life, and you haven’t got that person by your side and seeing it at the antenatal, you know, I found it quite difficult.”

Max recently broke his silence over his romance rumours and break-up, as he wrote on Instagram: “One day I will comment on all of the stuff that's been written over the last few months. Not now, but one day."
