His character is currently in the middle of a huge storyline.
Not only is he the father of his girlfriend Louise’s baby, he’s also the father of Sharon Mitchell’s unborn child.
With Sharon being Louise’s stepmother, it’s set to be a dramatic Christmas as the truth comes out.
It looks like Keanu could survive Phil Mitchell’s revenge as Danny was recently spotted filming emotional scenes at an airport, however, the show’s recent trailer has hinted he could be killed off.
What do you think will happen to Keanu when the truth comes out?
