Pregnancy shocker in EastEnders early release

As the episode begins, Nicola is keen to build bridges with George. She finds him at the Minute Mart, and tries to talk to him about recent events.

However, he’s having none of it, and remains adamant that everything which happened was Harry’s fault. He tells her that things are definitively over between them – leaving Nicola feeling alone and dejected.

She returns home, where Teddy also criticises her handling of the situation. Once alone, Nicola pulls a positive pregnancy test from her bag.

Will she tell George?

What happens next week as Nicola learns she’s pregnant

It’s a difficult week for Nicola in spoilers for upcoming episodes, as she struggles to support Harry. As the week begins, she and Harry are shocked to see Ravi back on the streets of Walford. Priya, meanwhile, accuses Harry of making everything up.

Nicola leaps to her son’s defence, sharing in no uncertain terms what, exactly, Ravi did. As Harry wrestles with his withdrawal symptoms, a terrible situation begins to unfold across the street – when Okie returns and threatens Kojo.

Meanwhile, Nicola’s odd behaviour piques Honey’s suspicions, who quickly realises what she’s hiding. However, they’re distracted when Nicola gets a call, learning that Harry has accidentally stabbed Okie during their violent showdown.

How will Nicola and Teddy react? And what does this mean for her pregnancy?
