There's tragedy ahead

There’s tragedy heading for EastEnders next week as Dinah Wilson bids farewell to her beloved daughter, Bailey Baker, before sadly taking her own life.

But as she gets assistance from her new friend, it seems she is fed up of feeling like a burden to everyone and even Karen can sense something is amiss.

Worried about Dinah’s state of mind, Karen talks to the nurse about Dinah seeing a mental health specialist.

But little does Karen know, Dinah has already made up her mind that she is going to take her own life and is already writing cards for Bailey’s future birthdays.

Despite Karen’s attempts to help Dinah, it is clear that she is determined to go through with her plan and starts to put the wheels into motion.

As she spends some quality time with Bailey, the pair are left with smiles on their faces, but little does the school girl know her mum is secretly saying goodbye to her.
