EastEnders has released an emotional trailer ahead of Whitney Dean’s (Shona McGarty) dramatic exit from the BBC soap, which leaves fans asking a huge question: Will she finally get her happy ending?
Whitney has had it tough throughout her time in Albert Square, and after countless failed relationships, she believes that she’s finally found the one in fiancé Zack Hudson (James Farrar).
But little does she know, Zack recently cheated on her with best friend Lauren Branning (Jacqueline Jossa).
In the new trailer, key moments from Whitney’s previous storylines play out on a screen, including her first arrival in Walford, the abuse she suffered at the hands of paedophile Tony King, her ill-fated wedding to Callum Highway (Tony Clay), and her ordeal with serial killer Gray Atkins.
