Eastenders star Ricky Norwood will face show bosses this week after a video showing the actor naked and smoking marijuana surfaced online.
Norwood, who plays the character of Fatboy in the long-running BBC soap, faces disciplinary action following the emergence of the eight-and-a-half-minute clip, which allegedly shows the 28-year-old performing a sex act while naked and smoking the drug.
A source told The Sun: “He’s being hauled in on Monday so we can get to the bottom of this. Nobody’s happy about it — he’s let himself and the show down.”
While an EastEnders spokeswoman confirmed: “We will be meeting with Ricky early next week to discuss this matter.
“We are unable to comment any further at this stage.”
The clip, which was shot during a conversation on online telephone service Skype, is also said to have been touted for sale to an X-rated website.
The woman who took part in the call is now thought to have sold the video to a celebrity website that has previously sold similar footage of male stars.
A representative for Norwood declined to comment. – Voice
