EastEnders star Shona McGarty has said that she hopes her character Whitney Dean gets \u201cthe ultimate revenge\u201d when it comes to Albert Square villain Gray Atkins (Toby-Alexander Smith).<\/p>\n

The murderer moved to Walford back in 2019 and has since secretly killed his wife Chantelle Atkins (Jessica Plummer), longtime resident Tina Carter (Luisa Bradshaw-White) and Whitney\u2019s fianc\u00e9 Kush Kazemi (Davood Ghadami).<\/p>\n

McGarty, who has played Whitney on EastEnders<\/a> since 2008, told RadioTimes.com<\/a> and other press that she hopes her character takes matters into her own hands once she finds that her friend Gray was responsible for her fianc\u00e9\u2019s murder.<\/p>\n

\u201cBit weird to say, but as an actress, I hope she wants the ultimate revenge and does something really unexpected and something that isn\u2019t safe,\u201d McGarty said.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut I don\u2019t know what\u2019s going to happen yet \u2013 really annoying and exciting at the same time!\u201d<\/p>

McGarty also teased that the truth comes as \u201ca huge shock\u201d to Whitney, who had until recently believed the Mitchells were responsible for Kush\u2019s death.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe would never have thought [Gray] was capable of murder. [It\u2019s] heart-breaking as Whitney and Chantelle were so close. You just can\u2019t imagine it, like one of those horrible documentaries you see where your next door neighbour is a murderer \u2013 it\u2019s crazy.\u201d<\/p>\n

EastEnders continues on Monday (6th December) with Kim (Tameka Empson) beginning to question everyone around her and Iqra (Priya Davdra) making a goodwill gesture, while Stuart (Ricky Champ) receives some concerning news.<\/p>\n
