Mick Carter (Danny Dyer) needs to get with it in EastEnders next week and realise that his son Lee's girlfriend, Whitney Dean (Shona McGarty), is leaning on him a bit too much and is now about to lean in for a kiss!

In recent weeks Whitney has confided in Mick about how difficult she's found it supporting Lee through his depression, and she also moved in for a kiss on Mick's wedding day! Mick may have thought nothing of it, but Whitney's crush isn't disappearing any time soon and she's about to pucker up again when she's alone with Mick in his car... How will newly-married Mick respond?

 

After an emotional Whitney rowed with Lee's sister, Nancy, earlier in The Vic, supportive Mick talks to her about the episode in his car.

But Whitney is relishing time with her bloke's dad and as she opens up to Mick, she asks a leading question about whether it's possible to love two people at the same time!

With Mick none the wiser about Whitney's intentions, she leans in for the kiss. Will the normally devoted husband be pleased and will his feisty wife, Linda, find out?
