Eve promised to support Avani in getting an abortion in EastEnders tonight (Monday, August 11), after the teenager broke down and admitted that she doesn’t want the baby. Putting on a brave face, Avani tried to comply with what grandma Suki wants, but the pressure finally got too much tonight.

And, as Eve sat Avani down for a heart-to-heart, she admitted that what she really wants is an abortion.

Avani revealed she wants an abortion in EastEnders tonight

After being caught with an alcoholic drink at Amy’s hot tub party, Avani was feeling emotional. She’d spent the day trying to regain a semblance of normality, struggling though a bout of morning sickness to spend time with Barney and her friends.

Meanwhile, Eve stressed to Suki that she really should have told Priya and Ravi by now. But, after talking to Stacey and Barney, Eve was having some serious doubts of her own, and took the opportunity to talk to Avani about whether she was really ready to have her grandma’s baby.

As it turned out, no. Eve agreed to support Avani in getting an abortion, but the teen was adamant that Suki not be told. Eve promised to keep Avani’s secret, but the abortion couldn’t have come at a worse time… as, in EastEnders spoilers for tomorrow, Suki finally decides to come clean to Ravi and Priya.
