But disaster strikes next week and she’s forced to rely on them more than ever

After tying the knot to serial killer Gray Atkins, Chelsea Fox (portrayed by Zaraah Abrahams) was walking on eggshells, terrified she’d know the same fate as Chantelle.

To avoid history repeating itself, she was ready to leave Albert Square with her baby and never look back – until Gray got to her.

In March, 2022, the solicitor was arrested and received comeuppance for his actions which included the murders of Tina Carter and Kush Kazemi.

Since then, Chelsea has found it difficult to adapt to life alone in Walford, especially as the single mother of the criminal’s third child.

She has received the support of many other residents, including Whitney Dean (Shona McGarty) who has supported her through thick and thin.

But just as Chelsea was settling into the background, another turn of events will push her back into the spotlight as her son Jordan encounters troubling health issues.

Coming up, Chelsea is concerned when Jordan seems under the weather.

While at Peggy’s, Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean) picks up on her mood.

Seeing how worried she is, she then decides to get Chelsea’s mother Denise (Diane Parish) to stop by and show her that they’ve installed a video baby monitor.

All seems well and Sharon encourages Chelsea to stay after her shift and unwind with a drink – but as many residents are aware, life in Walford is never as drama-free.

Jordan is taken to hospital and a distraught Chelsea blames herself for him being sick as doctors believe he may have contracted meningitis.

Whitney is concerned and Chelsea’s aunt Kim (Tameka Empson) steps up with some comforting words.

But will their support be enough for Chelsea?

Will Jordan be in a stable condition after his stay in hospital?
