EASTENDERS’ Kim Fox receives shocking news about daughter Pearl next week.
The bubbly Walford resident discovers that Pearl is having behavioural issues at school.
Her teacher pays Kim a visit explaining that Pearl needs to be challenged more because she is so smart, making Kim more determined than ever to send her to a private school.
Later in the week, Isaac tries to get Kim to see that that private schools aren’t the only way to give Pearl a good education.
However, Kim doesn’t budge, vowing to set up an online donation site for her followers to contribute to.
It’s been a tough few weeks for Kim after broke the news to Pearl that her dad Vincent had died.
Viewers were heartbroken for Kim as she delivered the gut-wrenching news.
Vincent – who was played by Richard Blackwood – disappeared in mysterious circumstances back in 2018 after getting mixed up with corrupt cop Aidan Maguire.
Although viewers never actually saw what happened next, it was only recently revealed that Vincent was murdered.
Actor Richard hinted at his character’s return back in January 2019.
Speaking on Good Morning Britain, he said of a potential comeback: “I think it’s a smart move. I want to go back – EastEnders, I would go back. I’ve just had a baby on the show – I don’t want to be an absentee dad!”
He previously said he missed Walford, revealing at the 2019 Dancing on Ice press launch: “I’m missing it in terms of the good times that I had there and the family I had there.
“But also, I’m happy to watch it from afar and see how it’s developing, but you know I’d always go back there. If there is a chance, I’d happily go back. [The door] is slightly ajar, everyone loves a Vincent so I’m happy about that.”
