Junior Knight, the suave and charming womanizer from EastEnders, has recently celebrated his birthday, leaving fans in shock with his age. Originally introduced in May, Junior's arrival to Albert Square caused quite a stir as he faced off against his estranged father, George, in an underground boxing match. Since then, he has made quite an impression on the residents of Walford, with his smooth talking and good looks.
Despite the initial tension between him and his father, Junior eventually made amends with George and even got to know his younger sisters, Gina and Anna. However, his true intentions were revealed when he revealed that he had a wife and son, causing George to regret the lost years. Junior's affairs with Bianca Jackson and his former step-mother Cindy Beale only added to his reputation as a womanizer, and even caused his wife Monique to return to Dubai with their son Xavier.
But it seems that Junior isn't done with his seductive ways just yet. He has set his sights on Cindy once again, and has even attempted to woo her daughter, Lauren Branning. And in a shocking turn of events, after reconciling with her partner Ian, Cindy ended up in bed with Junior once again. It's clear that Junior has a thing for older women, and while the age difference on-screen may seem significant, in real life, there's not much of a gap between them.
In fact, last week, fans of the show were surprised to learn that the actor who plays Junior, Micah Balfour, is actually 46 years old, despite his character being in his late thirties. A fan account, WalfordEast, wished the actor a happy birthday, causing many to express their shock at his ageless appearance. With his youthful looks and charm, Micah has managed to keep his age a secret from many viewers.
Some were quick to comment on how much younger he looks, with one fan exclaiming, "Blimey he looks at least ten years younger than that!" Another fan pointed out that he hasn't aged much since his days as Ben in The Bill, over 15 years ago. It's safe to say that Micah's age-defying looks have left viewers pleasantly surprised.
