I am writing this as a form of much needed closure. I am truly heartbroken. Not only has a talented actor like Max Bowden been axed in the most vile way right before his birthday, but Ballum has been forever destroyed. Nobody can play Ben Mitchell like MB. He made the character his own. The same goes for Callum and Tony Clay, obviously. Together, they've created something special and unique, speaking to vastly different audiences from different countries (check the comments on YouTube), age groups, cultures... Now, we will never see Ben's journey towards healing through therapy, or Callum adopting Lexi and being rightfully recognized as her Dad #2, or a new Ballum baby. We will be forever deprived of a story potraying Callum delicately supporting his husband in overcoming his issues with intimacy through tenderness and patience, in a beautiful parallel with Ben's support to Callum while coming to terms with his sexuality. We will never know how two gay dads would face the challenges of raising a motherless teenage girl, keeping in mind the abuse they received from their own farhers in order to break the cycle. We will never see a couple of happily married, monogamous men bringing up their own child (imagine a boy... I'm crying), trying to balance work, family, friends and romance. We will never have this queer little family thrive and be there for each other. We will be denied that incomparable mix of humour and passion, intense conflict and lighthearted banter, sexiness and occasional awkwardness that is Ballum played by MB and TC. Apparently, this is not suitable material for soaps.

And even if EE writers didn't live up to the task of doing justice to this wonderful pair, we knew we could always rely on a number of lovely fanfic authors doing the job with outstanding sensitivity in their own original voices.

What a waste.

Thank you to all the people who actively contributed to the fandom. Most of all - even though they'll never read this - thank you to Max and Tony from the bottom of my heart. I don't think you can full grasp the way your Ben and Callum have affected the fans. May life always bring you happiness and recognition, and give you back at least some of the joy you spread.

💙💙

I seen people compare it to the 2020 reunion where Ben ran through the market. It shouldn't be a parallel to that because Ben's not in the same place now. If it's a parallel to that it shows everything wrong with how they write Ballum.

Well I guess like cinematically the only real parallel is that its ben going to callum (which needed to happen given ben was the one hesitant to get back together, it had to be ben choice, but also nothing about this reunion seemed to follow on from that bench scene. Like the reason he was hesitant was he didn't want to be like Lewis and I guess he thinks he's not like Lewis anymore (not that he ever was but that was Ben's thinking. I get big events make you reevaluate but instead of the dialogue being ben apologising for the thousandth time their should have been reference to that. Saying he was wrong in the bench scene they can have the life they want , it is in him) and they kissed in both reunions. But yeah I get your point. The last tenth months have been so significant, and ben especially has developed so much, there's no way their relationship should be in the same place, but as long as ee are obsessed with saint callum I fear they might fall back into bad habits, which is shoddy writing. But we can only wait and see and hope things will be better. There's a good chance they might.

Do you think Ballum will stay broken up until Christmas i really hope not, after Callum finds out they will probably be friends first

i think the christmas thing is just something that some fans want because it'd be a parallel to christmas 2019. i don't think anyone actually believes they'll be broken up until christmas lmao

#ask #i don't think it'll be that long
