Whitney Dean’s shocking exit story kicks off in EastEnders as she is left to die
Whitney Dean (Shona McGarty) is set to leave EastEnders in the near future, and her exit storyline is set to be dramatic.
In upcoming scenes, viewers will take a trip to Milton Keynes with Whitney and partner Zack Hudson (James Farrar) as they visit Bianca Jackson (Patsy Palmer) following her break up.
However, things take a shocking turn when Whitney is run over by a speeding car, following a dramatic series of events.
As soon as they arrive in Milton Keynes, Whitney and Zack are met with discontent from two local children, Taylor and Britney.
It isn’t long before Whitney begins to form a bond with Britney after she and her brother join them for dinner.
Whitney is later horrified to find Britney searching through bins for food, and soon learns from Bianca that her mum, Keeley, suffers with a drug addiction.
When Britney and Taylor get locked out of their house a few days later, Bianca invites them in, while Whitney confronts Keeley, demanding an explanation.
Whitney later visits Britney’s school and is horrified to learn that she hasn’t been enrolled since 2020, and things get even worse when Whitney spots a gash on Britney’s leg.
She once again heads to confront Keeley, but things soon get out of hand and Britney does a runner.
‘Keeley, Whitney, Bianca, Zack and Sonia all go head-to-head, but Britney gets caught in the middle of it and ends up running away,’ actress Shona McGarty explained.
‘Whitney runs after Britney because she wants to look after her and make sure she’s safe, and Britney and Whitney have a heart-to-heart but it all ends in tears. It’s chaos.’
Whitney is quick to chase after her, and manages to slow her down by promising to look out for her, however, it is too little too late, as Britney unknowingly steps out in front of a speeding car.
Determined to save the young girl, Whitney pushes her out of the way, and takes the brunt of the impact herself.
Zack, Bianca and Sonia Fowler (Natalie Cassidy) all rush round as Whitney lies semi-conscious on the floor.
Will she be okay?
