"EastEnders star Rita Simons has admitted that she hopes there are tough times ahead for her character Roxy Mitchell in the coming months. Roxy&amp;#039;s recent storylines have revolved around her troubled sister Ronnie Branning, who is due to depart screens next month as Samantha Womack has finished filming with the soap. Pondering Roxy&amp;#039;s future, Simons has now told Reveal magazine that she wants the businesswoman to face some challenges of her own. Simons explained: &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;d like to see her experience some actual trauma of her own, instead of her sister&amp;#039;s. It&amp;#039;s nice as an actress to get your teeth into something. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ve had a lot of good storylines but recently they&amp;#039;re revolved around Ronnie, so, now she&amp;#039;s gone, I&amp;#039;m looking forward to Roxy having a load of problems! I don&amp;#039;t want happy endings.&amp;quot; Roxy is currently in a relationship with twisted Michael Moon, who is developing an obsession with Ronnie in the build-up to her departure. &amp;gt; Read more EastEnders spoilers and news "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
