EastEnders
Alfie Moon left gutted by setback amid cancer treatment
Alfie Moon (Shane Richie) is left upset in EastEnders as he continues his fight against prostate cancer.
He was diagnosed back in the summer, after taking a punch in the stomach from off-the-rails son Tommy Moon (Sonny Kendall).
Afterwards, Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden) insisted Alfie go to A&E to get himself checked out, and doctors revealed worrying news.
Alfie’s prostate was enlarged, and further tests revealed it was cancerous.
Since then, his ex-wife Kat Slater (Jessie Wallace) has stepped right up, putting her differences aside.
She’d been furious with Alfie for disappearing – when in fact he’d secretly has his prostate removed and had headed to Spain to recuperate, without telling her or their kids why.
