EastEnders Whitney Dean makes major decision after Zack Hudson cheating bombshell
EASTENDERS’ Whitney Dean has made a major decision after Zack Hudson was exposed as a cheat.
The market trader – who is played by actress Shona McGarty in the BBC soap – was ready to marry Zack until their foster daughter Britney revealed he had cheated on her with best mate Lauren Branning.
Horrified to realise Britney was telling the truth, Whitney flew at Lauren, dragging her to the ground and raining down blows on her.
After being dragged off she turned on Zack, punching him before tearing into him for what he’d done to them.
Later at home Zack went to see Whitney to try and plead his case – and it looked like he was getting through her.
But then Britney told her she wanted to go back home to her real mum because if Whitney took Zack back, she would blame her for ruining the wedding.
And Whitney made her choice.
She told Zack: “Britney just told me she wants to go back and live with Keeley.
“Because she thinks she’s in the way and that we’ll never forgive her for ruining our wedding.
“I think you could be an amazing father but I need to be an even better mother. And if I’ve got any self respect, I’ll put my daughters first.
“I don’t trust you anymore. What happens if you come home late, I’ll end up going to a really dark place. I’m not doing that to myself, I’m not.
“I know you think you won’t hurt me again, you think that. You think you won’t cheat on me again but you might.
“And maybe if it was just me, I’d be a mug and I’d take that chance. But it ain’t just me anymore.
