Well, given the circumstances surrounding Charity’s pregnancy, we are very confident she will survive this. Firstly, and the major point here, is that she has to face the fallout from her lies. There is no way Sarah, Jacob and Mack will not find out this is Charity and Ross’ baby. In fact, show boss Laura Shaw has already said: “With the baby due in spring, the birth may be the event that finally exposes all of Charity’s secrets…” What good would all that be if Charity were dead? They’ve got to have the big showdown, see if her marriage can survive, see who gets to keep the baby and how Sarah and Charity’s relationship can move forward. The baby arriving is just one strand of what will be an long-lasting storyline. To have Charity die before being involved in all of this would be ludicrous.
