In 2018, Vincent, played by Richard Blackwood, it was implied that he was killed off but since his death wasn’t shown, fans have wondered if he ever really died.
Tameka Empson, who played Kim Fox until recently, seemed to hint at a possible return for Vincent, supporting the fan theory.
Speaking to The Mirror, she said fans should “watch this space” when she was asked if Vincent could possibly return.

When asked about his return, Tameka said: “Well where is he? And if he turns up he’s got to turn up with something in his hands, cos it’s been a long while now.
“We’ve cared for the children, out of house and everything. Watch this space people.”
After reaching a dark turn, Vincent’s drama with Aidan Maguire led to a mystery death and saw him leave the show seven years ago.
He told the police everything he knew about the villain and planned to go into witness protection but his wife Kim was against the idea.
Vincent didn’t realise that the police officers he was talking to were corrupt and working for Maguire. They drove off with him in the car and pointed a gun at him.
Fans were lead to believe that he had been killed but they never saw what happened after the car scene.
A few years later, Vincent’s wallet was found, further implying that he had died when it was returned by Howie Danes.
