WHITNEY Dean is arrested for the murder of Leo King and lies to the police about calling Mick Carter.
The character, played by Shona McGarty on the BBC One soap, is adamant that she acted in self-defence but it’s clear her lawyer Gray Atkins has his suspicions.
EastEnders viewers have watched on in horror as Leo has terrorised Whitney over the past few months in order to get revenge for his dad’s suicide.
His father – Tony King – abused Whitney for years before killing himself in prison after she spoke out about the abuse.
But Leo believes she made it all up and has targeted her to avenge the death of his dad.
He seduced and slept with Whitney before she learned of his real identity.
Since the truth came out, Leo has refused to back down and even got a job on the market to continue haunting Whitney.
The latest development has seen Leo hiding in the attic of her home while watching her every move through a peephole.
Fans were left horrified when Leo then snuck into Whitney’s room holding a knife as he hovered over her while she slept.
The villain was luckily disturbed by Sonia Fowler’s return and immediately fled back to the attic.
Fans already know that the pair are set for an explosive showdown that will see blood left on their hands after Leo shows up in her bedroom.
