Kat manages to lay her fears to rest thanks to her cousin Stacey – little does she know that her former pal Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean) is on a mission to get Phil back from her.
While Kat sports her white dress, Sharon hands Phil an old photo of them after some encouragement from her brother Zack Hudson and she tells him how good they are together.
However, Phil has made his choice and is adamant on marrying Kat.
Meanwhile, Zack overhears their conversation and jumps to the wrong conclusion that Phil and Sharon area ready to give their romance another go.

Alfie tries his luck again as Phil leaves but there’s no use – Kat forces him to go.
He obliges but when he returns to his canal boat, Alfie is surprised to see his twin sons, Bert and Ernie, snuck in his van.
Kat gets a call from Alfie as she speaks with Stacey and forces her to fetch their children from him which makes her late for her own wedding.
