EastEnders spoilers follow for Monday’s episode (27 October), which is available to watch now on streaming service BBC iPlayer and hasn’t yet aired on TV.
EastEnders has exposed Zoe Slater’s sordid secret about her son, with Vicki Fowler discovering her major lie. Last month, Zoe told Sharon that father of the twins she gave birth to back in 2006 is none other than her former flame and Sharon’s late husband Dennis Rickman.
However, last week Kat grew fed up of her daughter’s deception and Zoe was forced to admit that she’d lied about Dennis being the dad.
What to Read Next
Kat updated Alfie about Zoe’s admission in today’s episode, despairing about why Zoe was so desperate to track down her son and trying to con Sharon out of money to do so.
Zoe had a more pressing issue though, as she searched the Square for her new cat and asked Anthony for help when he saw her struggling.

Meanwhile, Vicki told Ian that Sharon was visiting Jada, as she wanted to get DNA from Denny’s daughter Alyssa.
Sharon has become obsessed with tracking down Dennis’ son, and therefore Denny’s half-brother. When Vicki explained the lengths that Sharon has gone to fund a private investigator, Ian offered to transfer her the money she needs.
That evening, Zoe and Anthony returned to The Vic having been unable to find the cat – but Kat revealed that it’s been behind the sofa all day.

Kat grew increasingly concerned about her daughter’s welfare and urged Zoe to tell Sharon the truth about her son’s paternity, but she refused.
As quiz night kicked off in the pub, Vicki asked Kat if she could give Zoe a message from Sharon, who has been bombarding her with texts out of excitement about the adopted child.
Kat found out that Sharon was returning from Birmingham with Denny’s daughter’s DNA, which would give her a much better chance of tracking down Zoe’s son.

Unable to cover up the truth any longer, Kat told Vicki that Zoe hadn’t been honest – to the complete horror of her daughter.
“Zoe has been lying to Sharon,” she revealed. “Dennis was never the father of her son, and Denny never had a half-brother.”
As Zoe violently lunged at her mum, how will Vicki – and Sharon – react to this shock confession?
EastEnders airs on Mondays – Thursdays at 7.30pm on BBC One. The show also streams on BBC iPlayer, where most episodes drop early at 6am ahead of their TV broadcast.
