So many lies! The end is nigh as Whitney Dean and Zack Hudson both hide big secrets in EastEnders

Whitney Dean and Zack Hudson (Shona McGarty and James Farrar) have both been hiding big secrets from each other, which never bodes well in a relationship – particularly in EastEnders.

Things started to go wrong for the couple when they fell out over Britney Wainwright (Lola Campbell) during their trip to Milton Keynes, and Zack ended up coming home alone.

With Whitney out of the picture for the time being, Zack ended up drunkenly trying to kiss her best friend Lauren Branning (Jacqueline Jossa) – something that has haunted him ever since.

However, he isn’t the only one keeping a big secret, as viewers were quick to learn following Whitney’s return to Albert Square.

Whitney and Zack are both hiding huge secrets

Zack was horrified to find that she had Britney with her, and was even more furious to discover that Whitney was now Britney’s foster mum.

Aware of how upset Zack was over the situation, Whitney explained that she hadn’t wanted to tell him anything because she didn’t want him to panic that she was at the hospital.

She went on to explain that she and the baby were fine, but that Britney’s mum Keeley had been attacked by her partner, and that Whitney had told social services she was a registered foster parent.

While this seemed like a reasonable explanation, it later became clear that Whitney wasn’t telling the truth, when she slipped up on the story while retelling it to Lauren.

Though she managed to correct herself, a later conversation with Britney proved that nothing is as it seems when it comes to Britney’s fostering.

After Zack had finally come around to the idea of Britney staying for a while, Whitney told her that Zack could never know what really happened before they returned to Walford…

With Whitney set to leave the Square in the coming months, and both her and Zack keeping huge secrets from each other, will their relationship survive?
