EastEnders' Alfie Moon will face some huge dilemmas in the lead-up to Kat and Phil's wedding next week.
Alfie's ex-wife Kat Slater is preparing to tie the knot with her fiancé Phil, whose big secret threatens to ruin their day.
As Kat excitedly prepares for the wedding, Phil will struggle to contain his guilt over what he is keeping from her.
To make matters worse, Phil is facing pressure from Keanu – who is aware of what he's done and is using the information to blackmail him.
When Louise calls and reiterates that Keanu can't have access to Peggy, Phil heads over to The Arches to settle the situation once and for all.
What to Read Next
Wanting to keep Keanu quiet, Phil lies that he’s already told Kat what happened with Emma and she’s decided to forgive him.
Jean later arranges a surprise hen-do for Kat in The Vic, against her wishes, and the women of Walford toast to her last night of freedom.
Alfie arrives and finally makes peace with Kat over an earlier disagreement, but she’s pained when he reveals he can’t be at the wedding.
Having observed Kat’s happy mood, Keanu realises Phil’s earlier deceit and texts him, threatening to to tell Kat everything.
Phil rushes to The Vic to intervene but is stopped by Sharon, who assures him she’ll sort it instead.
Sticking to her word, Sharon manages to break up Kat and Keanu’s conversation and issues a threat of her own to Keanu.
Accepting defeat, a drunk Keanu agrees to keep quiet, but accidentally lets slip the truth about Phil to a horrified Alfie.
Alfie is reeling from Keanu's bombshell as the day of Kat and Phil's wedding arrives and heads over to The Arches to get clarity.
After speaking to Keanu, Alfie goes to see Kat, where he prepares to reveal all.
Alfie then arrives at Peggy's, where Phil is preparing for his wedding, and punches him.
As the two men battle it out, Alfie emotionally explains that he lied about his results and does in fact have prostate cancer.
Phil is in disbelief as Alfie tells him that he's due to have a prostatectomy that day, which is why he won't be at the wedding.
Kat is panicked when Phil arrives late at the registry office without Alfie, but will she find out what's really going on? And will they go through with the wedding or not?
That remains to be seen, but when Linda learns about Alfie’s hospital visit from Mitch, she puts two and two together and arrives to support him.
Discussing Alfie's shocking discovery about Phil, Shane Richie – who plays him – said: "Alfie just loses it because it’s the day of the wedding and it horrifies him. That plays on Alfie now, knowing this truth and he hopes that ultimately one day that Kat will know and find out but now Alfie always has this over Phil so I will be interested to see how it plays out.
"I think Alfie, certainly with what he’s going through at the moment, doesn’t want all-out war, because there’s children involved.
"It’s not just war between Kat, Alfie and Phil you’ve got to think of Tommy and the twins and what the fallout and the aftermath will do to them. Without giving too much away, Alfie can’t hold it all in and he tries to look elsewhere for advice on what to do."
