Honey Mitchell faces pregnancy scare in EastEnders after Adam’s departure

Are her troubles only just beginning?

Honey Mitchell finds herself taking a pregnancy test in next week’s EastEnders after panicking that she could be having former boyfriend Adam Bateman’s baby.

EastEnders fans have watched Honey struggling since she finally faced up to the fact dentist Adam was no good for her, before confronting him about his cheating in the middle of the pub and throwing him out on the street.

But while she might have got the upper hand by kicking two timing Adam to the curb, Honey’s long-term eating disorder has taken a grip and she is struggling to hide it from her nearest and dearest.

Honey is distraught when Habiba mentions the fact it is six weeks since Adam left, and as a horrible realisation dawns on the shop worker, she races off to get a pregnancy test.

When Ash catches her with the test, she is forced to cover, but not a lot gets past Ash and soon she is cornering Honey to make sure she takes the test and gets some answers.

Meanwhile, an oblivious Billy is still worrying about how he can help his ex with her eating disorder and when he finds evidence of her not eating, he goes to extreme lengths to make her realise what is happening.
