Alfie Moon makes shock public confession after humiliating incident in the Vic in EastEnders
The fan favourite has been undergoing cancer treatment.
LIFE as he once knew it hasn’t been the same for Alfie Moon after he was diagnosed with prostate cancer.
Next week, the EastEnders favourite is humiliated in The Vic and decides to make a huge confession with Linda Carter’s support.
Regular BBC One viewers will remember that Alfie Moon (portrayed by Shane Richie) was diagnosed with prostate cancer in late 2023.
After receiving support from an unlikely ally, Phil Mitchell, the fan favourite was reluctant to speak about his condition.
He eventually decided to open up to his former wife Kat Slater but he has yet to do the same with his own friends.
Coming up next week, Alfie continues to undergo cancer treatment, unbeknownst to some of his loved ones.
During one of his last radiotherapy sessions, Alfie meets a nervous fellow patient called Shahir.
However, he feels lonely when Shahir’s loved ones show up while he’s alone.
Later on, Linda Carter (Kellie Bright) invites him for a drink in The Vic and gets Ian Beale (Adam Woodyatt) and Billy Mitchell (Perry Fenwick) along.
Unfortunately, the small gathering takes a turn when Alfie can’t get to the toilet in time and has an accident.
In other scenes, Alfie is mortified about wetting himself in The Vic, and Linda, who is determined to get him the support he needs, begs him to open up to Ian and Billy about his cancer diagnosis.
She reasons that he must let the people who love him support him and he eventually agrees.
After a false start, Alfie finally tells his shocked pals everything, and they vow to be there for him.
However, Linda has a confession of her own to make in later scenes of the London-based program.
The Vic landlady is shaken when Ricky Butcher sends a photograph of Mick and Janine’s baby.
Alfie later finds her drunk and inconsolable in The Albert and takes her home.
While there, the pair have a heart-to-heart – and a drunken Linda says more than she should.
Could she tell Alfie one of her darkest secrets?
EastEnders airs from Monday to Thursday at 7.30pm on BBC One.
