EastEnders spoilers follow.
Kat Mitchell has made a shocking discovery about the paternity of Sharon Watts’s son in EastEnders.
With her wedding less than two weeks away, Sharon has been desperately trying to stop the news from spreading that her son Albie’s father is Phil Mitchell… not Keanu Taylor, as everyone believes.
The secrecy unraveled in Wednesday’s (December 13) episode as Sharon tried to stop best mate Linda Carter from drinking once again.

Linda tragically relapsed earlier in the week after more taunting from Dean Wicks as well as the realisation that none of her children would be coming to visit her at Christmas.
Sharon initially admitted to Linda that she’d decided to burn Albie’s DNA test results before she realised that her mate had started drinking again.
As Linda’s tragic relapse continued at the Vic that evening, Sharon comforted her friend as she was sick.
Linda promised Sharon she’d never reveal the truth about Phil and Albie, though she wouldn’t have to because Kat Mitchell exited one of the cubicles at the worst possible time.
Kat stormed out of the Vic as she threatened to tell Phil the truth, with Sharon chasing after her to ensure that didn’t happen.

Sharon finally got her attention by suggesting the revelation could reignite Phil’s feelings for her — and left Kat with a stark warning that she’d destroy Kat’s life if the secret came out.
Will Kat risk her marriage to tell Phil the truth?
