There looks to be more shocks ahead for the Mitchell family in the coming weeks,
after another family secret was teased in Thursday’s EastEnders. Viewers have seen
Billy Mitchell’s (Perry Fenwick) life recently turned on its head with the revelation
his father Stevie Mitchell (Alan Ford) had a secret second family, with son Teddy (Roland Manookian) and his sons Harry (Elijah Holloway) and Barney (Lewis Bridgeman) landing in Albert Square. While their arrival ruffled the feathers of Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden), a family bonding night at the Boxing Den seemingly enabled the family to put any bad feeling to bed – for now, at least. On Thursday, Teddy risked reigniting his feud with Phil as he shared a drink with his ex-wife Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean) in The Queen Vic, as Billy and a number of other Walford residents marked the birthday of the late Lola Pearce (Danielle Harold).
Sparks were flying between the pair, and while Sharon brought the night to an end when she turned down the offer of another drink, it was clear there was an attraction between them.
