Could Oscar and Josh Become EastEnders’ Next Major Couple?

Could Oscar and Josh become the next major couple on EastEnders? 👀

Recent episodes have already sparked huge discussion among viewers after Oscar’s bisexuality storyline took an emotional turn, with growing chemistry between him and Josh leaving fans wondering whether a major new relationship is beginning to form in Walford.

The pair’s scenes together have quickly become a talking point online, especially after their kiss at The Albert. While the storyline is still developing, many viewers already feel the connection between the two characters comes across naturally, helping the story feel more grounded and believable.

Oscar’s journey has also struck a chord because the show is exploring more than just romance. Alongside the attraction and excitement, there’s confusion, pressure, friendship and the fear of hurting people around him — particularly Jasmine, who remains emotionally caught in the middle of the situation.

At the moment, Josh’s sexuality has not been officially defined onscreen, which has added another layer of intrigue to the storyline. Some fans believe the show may slowly explore Josh questioning his own feelings, while others think the relationship could become one of EastEnders’ next major LGBTQ+ pairings if writers continue building the emotional side carefully.

British soaps have played a huge role in LGBTQ+ visibility over the years, and viewers are already comparing Oscar and Josh’s early storyline to previous fan-favourite soap couples who slowly developed from friendship into romance over time.

Whether the relationship becomes official or ends in heartbreak, it’s clear the storyline has already captured viewers’ attention.
