On 19 July 2008, The Sun reported that a new character, Danielle, would be introduced to EastEnders as the love interest of fellow newcomer Callum Monks.
Treadwell-Collins explained that it was necessary to introduce Danielle shortly after this revelation, but in such a manner that she would arrive "under the audience's radar", to preserve the later revelation of her identity as Ronnie's daughter [REF].
