Next week on EastEnders, Lauren Branning is in for a big surprise. As she struggles to manage her pain from the injuries she sustained in the crowd crush at Peggy's back in September, Lauren makes a startling discovery - she's pregnant.
Her family grows concerned as her condition doesn't seem to be getting any better. When she lashes out at her partner Peter Beale and their son Louis, it becomes clear that Lauren is not coping with the pain. In tears, she finally admits that she needs help and books an appointment with her GP.
But things don't go as expected when the doctor tells her she needs to reduce her pain medication and is unable to give her another prescription. Later, during a conversation with Anna Knight about her symptoms, Anna has a thought - could Lauren be pregnant?
Lauren decides to take a pregnancy test in the Vic toilets and is stunned when it comes back positive. This moment also brings back memories of when Lauren suspected Anna of being pregnant earlier this year, when she was exhibiting classic symptoms.
Recently, Lauren has been a source of support for Anna after she found out she was pregnant. However, Anna ultimately decided to terminate the pregnancy and keep the news from her then-boyfriend Bobby Beale. But the truth eventually came out in a dramatic way when Bobby caught her kissing his best friend Freddie Slater.
Actress Jacqueline, who returned to the show in December 2023, has hinted at the upcoming drama for her character in a cryptic Instagram post. Make sure to tune in to BBC One or catch the episode on iPlayer from Monday 18 September to see how it all unfolds.
