EastEnders fans work out seriously dark twist for Whitney Dean as she decides to keep baby in emotional scenes
EASTENDERS fans have predicted a huge dark twist for Whitney Dean amid her recent pregnancy revelation.
Fans of the BBC soap have watched on over the past 18 months as Whitney, and her partner Zack Hudson, lose their daughter Peach.
The news hit the couple hard as they struggled in the aftermath of the devastating loss.
It led to the pair looking at other options in order to provide a safe family space for children.
Opting away from actively trying again, the pair decided to look into fostering and were left over the moon when they finally received approval and their first placement just before Christmas.
The pair were bursting with happiness when Ashton arrived in their home for Christmas although their joy was short-lived after the social workers confirmed they had found a more permanent home for the young boy after just days with Whitney and Zack.
As well as that, Whitney was left rattled when she discovered that she had fallen pregnant once again.
Zack had also been displaying odd behaviour as he struggled with the thought of Ashton leaving their home and he decided to stay out clubbing all night at Peggy’s.
It made Whitney doubt whether they were strong enough to bring their own child into the world.
It quickly became clear that Whitney was considering the pair’s future and whether they were suitable to bring up a baby as well as expressing her fear of losing another child once again.
Having spoken to Yolande Trueman about what to do, Whitney came to a realisation that she had been given a blessing and should continue on with the pregnancy in very emotional scenes.
She said to Zack: “I want to give our baby a chance!”
However, dark thoughts have crept into the thoughts of one EastEnders fan as they predicted an utterly heartbreaking twist.
They have speculated that Whitney could lose her life in childbirth.
It comes as we know that actress Shona McGarty will leave her role this year after 15 years playing the popular BBC character.
Writing on X – formerly Twitter – they said: “Oh no! The baby is gonna live and Whit won’t, huh?”
Could this be the true reasons for Whitney’s impending exit?
Or will she finally get her happy ever after?
