Whitney Dean is set to receive worrying news about her pregnancy in EastEnders next week while being kept in the dark about Zack Hudson’s HIV diagnosis.
In the upcoming scenes, Whitney becomes concerned when she starts seeing blood spots and goes to the hospital for a checkup, and is stunned when her doctor announces that her ultrasound has reported a situation with her child.
When Whitney accepts the news, Zack admits he is deeply ashamed of his HIV diagnosis and, despite Sam Mitchell’s insistence, refuses to share his status with the mother-to-be.
