EastEnders is known for its shock twists, and there is certainly a big one next week in next week's episodes, when Sharon Mitchell discovers that she's pregnant. Sharon doesn't cope well with the situation and half way through the week she breaks down about the news. To make matters worse, it isn't clear whether the baby's father is Phil Mitchell or Keanu Taylor – who has recently been revealed to be the father of Louise Mitchell's unborn child. And because this is soap land, there are sure to be plenty of twists and turns in the storyline over the next few months.
Monday 10 June – Sharon discovers she's pregnant
Phil arranges a job for Keanu so that he is out of Walford, still not able to come to terms with Louise's pregnancy. Sharon fears for Keanu's safety, while Louise is confused by her feelings for him. The pregnant teenager opens up to Bex, who urges her to tell Keanu how she feels. Sharon, meanwhile, admits to Keanu that she doesn't want him to leave, but she doesn't get the response she was hoping for. Louise later breaks down in tears, and Sharon finds her – persuading her to find Keanu and sort things out. Louise is stunned to hear from Keanu that he still loves her and wanted their baby, and when Louise admits to him that she's still pregnant, the pair share a tearful embrace. Sharon, on the other side of the Square, is horrified when she finds out that she's pregnant. Elsewhere, Mick and Shirley aren't impressed by Tina's suggestion that they dress up for the Spice Girls concert, while Callum proposes to Whitney. Meanwhile, Mitch is worried about Bailey's birthday the following day, while Kush is stunned to see missed calls from Nita on Robbie's phone - leading to Robbie to admit that Sami is meant to be on his way back to India - swearing Kush to secrecy.
