EastEnders legend cheated on a second time – with her best friend
Whitney has been cheated on again
EastEnders legend Whitney Dean (Shona McGarty) has been cheated on for the second time in recent weeks, following a huge row with partner Zack Hudson (James Farrar).
Whitney has been hiding a huge secret, which was finally revealed in explosive scenes this week.
Zack was horrified to learn that foster daughter Britney Wainwright (Lola Campbell) hadn’t actually been fostered at all, as Whitney had paid Britney’s mum to take her in.
When Whitney realised that her secret was out, she instantly turned on best friend Lauren Branning (Jacqueline Jossa), who had been threatening to tell Zack the truth unless Whitney got there first.

Believing Lauren to have betrayed her trust, Whitney tore into her, even going so far as to comment on her own family life in front of Peter Beale (Thomas Law) and their young son Louie.
Zack soon pulled Whitney back inside and revealed that Britney was the one who had spilled the secret, and the couple continued to argue over their different ideas for the future.
When Whitney admitted that she would choose Britney over Zack any time, Zack stormed out, and soon met up with Lauren in Peggy’s.
While Whitney tried to pick up the pieces back at home, Zack and Lauren got chatting, eventually deciding to get dinner together.
Back at home, Whitney was left to explain Britney’s Usher Syndrome diagnosis to the teen, but promised that she would have a whole host of people around to support her.
When Britney asked where Zack would come into that, Whitney assured her that he cared too, completely unaware of what was happening across the Square.
In the shadows of an alleyway, Zack and Lauren were sharing another kiss, though this time neither of them pulled away.
Is Whitney set to lose both her boyfriend and her best friend?
