EastEnders has revealed that Whitney Carter could be pregnant again.

Whitney (Shona McGarty) delivered the surprise news to her husband Lee in Tuesday night's episode, finally giving the troubled couple something to smile about.

The latest visit to Walford explored some more dark times for Lee (Danny-Boy Hatchard), as his nemesis Oz paid another visit to the Queen Vic and threatened to reveal the truth about the recent robbery at the pub.

Oz demanded some free booze from the pub's store in return for his silence, forcing a tearful Lee to betray his family yet again by giving into his blackmail.

Upstairs later on, Lee finally seemed ready to tell Whitney everything - but he was interrupted when she dropped her own big bombshell first.

Whitney told him: "It's not bad. Just stop a second. I'm late. I think I might be pregnant again."

Lee and Whitney were expecting a child together earlier this year, but they were left devastated when she lost the baby in October.

With parenthood now potentially on the horizon again, could this be the fresh start that Lee and Whitney need? Or is there more heartbreak in store?

EastEnders have previously revealed that Lee's months of problems will be coming to a head later this week, but we'll have to stay tuned to find out why and in what circumstances.

EastEnders continues on Thursday (December 29) at 7.30pm on BBC One.
