EastEnders spoilers: Sharon Watts and Keanu Taylor shocked to the core by Albie’s hospital test results
Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean) and Keanu Taylor (Danny Walters) receive major news about son Albie in EastEnders next week which leaves them both stunned beyond belief.
This comes shortly after Albie’s kidnap ordeal, which left Sharon broken. As viewers know, Keanu arrived home last week to inform Sharon that Albie had been taken by someone while he played at the park.
A police investigation was swiftly launched, with detectives and the residents of the community coming together in a bid to locate missing Albie, unaware that the whole thing was an elaborate kidnap scheme cooked up by Keanu.
Keanu was desperate to stop Sharon taking Albie away to Abu Dhabi and therefore he tried to flee the country with his son. Seeing how much Albie wanted to stay with Sharon forced the mechanic reconsider, but it was too late as the police had already been notified of the abduction.
Thinking on the spot, Keanu claimed that Albie had been snatched while his back was turned, and thus he posted a ransom note through the letterbox to make his cover story all the more convincing.
Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden) got involved, agreeing to give Sharon the cash to pay off the blackmailer, much to the horror of Karen (Lorraine Stanley), who feared that she and Keanu would be going to prison over what they’ve done.
Keanu manages to convince Sharon to allow Karen to do the money drop and, while the outcome of the situation remains to be seen, new spoilers confirm that Albie is returned safely to Sharon, who has reunited with Keanu!
Keanu makes a mis-judged joke which falls flat with Sharon, who is still reeling by the cafe fire, which has brought back memories for her.
Despite her paranoia over recent events, she allows Keanu to collect Albie from pre-school and, later that day, she encourages him to propose to her again so that she may accept this time.
Subsequent scenes see the couple confide in Mitch Baker (Roger Griffiths) and Bernie Taylor (Clair Norris) about their engagement as they all prepare to celebrate in the Vic.
Karen, meanwhile, is less than pleased to learn of Sharon and Keanu’s reunion and, despite Sharon’s insistence, she refuses to celebrate with them.
Sharon, however, is soon distracted when she receives a phone call from the hospital requesting an urgent appointment to discuss Albie’s test results. Keanu does his best to reassure Sharon, but he fails to turn up to the appointment on time, with Sharon starting without him.
Keanu finally arrives, with both he and Sharon absolutely stunned by the news, agreeing to have tests themselves.
Sharon reels in the aftermath and, finding Keanu at the Vic for continuing with their engagement celebrations, she lashes out at him before heading off. Zack Hudson (James Farrar) subsequently finds her on Denny’s bench, where she reveals all.
One to watch: Wednesday November 15 at 7:30pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
