*Warning: Contains spoilers for Wednesday\u2019s EastEnders episode (12th June 2024), currently available on BBC iPlayer.*<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean) made a big decision ahead of Keanu Taylor\u2019s (Danny Walters) funeral in the latest episode of EastEnders<\/a>.<\/p>\n

After taking Keanu\u2019s killer, Linda Carter (Kellie Bright)<\/a>, to an AA meeting and forcing her to sober up, Sharon turned her attention to her young son Albie (Arthur Gentleman), who she still hadn\u2019t told of Keanu\u2019s death.<\/p>\n

Albie still believes Keanu to be his father, despite last year\u2019s twist that Sharon\u2019s ex-husband Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden) is in fact the real daddy.<\/p>\n

Sharon saw Albie making a special Father\u2019s Day card, and struggled to tell him that Keanu was never coming home \u2013 also resolving to stay away from the funeral<\/a> and grieving mother Karen Taylor\u2019s (Lorraine Stanley) wrath.<\/p>

Family friend Martin Fowler (James Bye) opened up about how his adoptive son Arthur Fowler Jr (Rocco Brenner) had taken the news of birth father Kush Kazemi\u2019s (Davood Ghadami) death, explaining that kids understood things much more than adults realised.<\/p>\n

Sharon found the strength to speak to Albie properly, telling\u00a0Albie that Keanu was now an angel who couldn\u2019t come back. Albie asked if Sharon would give his daddy the Father\u2019s Day card in Heaven, and Sharon promised that she would.<\/p>\n

Later, Linda gave Sharon a cuddly toy for Albie, donated from Linda\u2019s son Ollie (Harry Farr) in a thoughtful gesture that mirrored Sharon\u2019s support when Mick (Danny Dyer) was presumed dead.<\/p>\n

Sharon revealed that she was planning to attend Keanu\u2019s funeral after all for the sake of her son, but how will Karen react to her presence? Will Sharon and Linda crack under the pressure of their horrific secret?<\/p>\n
