Fans of the popular show EastEnders were shocked when they found out the real age of Micah Balfour, the actor who plays the charismatic womanizer Junior Knight. It turns out that Micah is actually 46 years old, while his character on the show is only 38. This revelation has left viewers in awe of his youthful appearance.
Junior made his first appearance on the show in May, when he arrived in Albert Square to face his estranged father, George Knight, during an illegal boxing match. As the son of the landlord, Junior caused quite a stir and quickly became entangled in the drama of the other residents. He revealed that he had a wife and son, which left George regretful for the lost years. He also took the opportunity to get to know his younger sisters, Gina and Anna.
But Junior's arrival also brought trouble, as he had affairs with Bianca Jackson and his former stepmother, Cindy Beale. This caused his wife Monique to leave for Dubai with their son Xavier. However, Junior's eye is still on Cindy, and he has also tried to woo Lauren Branning. Recently, Cindy took advantage of Ian's absence to spend some time alone with Junior, much to the dismay of viewers.
Despite his on-screen preference for older women, the age gap between Junior and his love interests is not as significant in real life. In fact, Micah only turned 46 in July, as pointed out by the EastEnders fan account WalfordEast. This revelation surprised many, as Micah looks at least ten years younger than his actual age.
Fans expressed their shock and disbelief on social media, with one writing, "Blimey he looks at least ten years younger than that!" Another added, "46? He hasn't aged a day since playing Ben in The Bill 15 years ago."
It's clear that Micah has managed to maintain his youthful looks, much to the surprise of viewers.
