Kat Slater makes a big decision about Phil Mitchell wedding in EastEnders

What will Kat decide?

After being engaged for over a year, Kat Slater and Phil Mitchell's wedding plans have been on hold since late 2022. However, all that is about to change as Kat makes a major decision about their engagement next week.

Tense scenes unfold upon Kat's return

Kat Slater, played by Jessie Wallace, is back in the Square after leaving to visit her sister Little Mo. But her return brings some tense moments as she receives some troubling news. Her son Tommy Moon has been acting out again, and her former husband Alfie Moon might be dealing with prostate cancer.

Anger and revelations

Kat is furious when Alfie reveals that Tommy has lashed out at him. It turns out both Alfie and Phil have been dealing with Tommy's erratic behavior in her absence. The situation prompts Kat to confront Phil about keeping secrets, which leads him to share the news of Alfie's cancer scare.

Can their relationship weather the storm?

Kat is horrified to learn that Alfie should be receiving his prostate cancer results on the same day. She immediately rushes to be by his side at the hospital. The revelation causes a heated argument between Kat and Phil, but will it irreparably damage their relationship?

Attempts at reconciliation

Despite being frozen out by Kat, Phil tries to make amends and even brings chocolates for her at the cab office. Unfortunately, his attempts to smooth things over are unsuccessful.

Secrets and uncertainties

As tensions rise, Phil seeks solace at Peggy's, but his peace is interrupted by Emma Harding, who demands a drink. Meanwhile, Sharon talks some sense into Kat and encourages her to find Phil. Later, Phil returns home to an angry Kat, who is upset that he stayed out all night. He promises to be honest from now on, but his actions speak differently when he rushes off after a mysterious encounter with Emma.

A surprising decision

After Alfie lets them down, Kat takes matters into her own hands and books the registry office for the following week. She wants to move forward with marrying Phil. In the Vic, she announces the news, but the question remains: Will they actually go through with it this time?

EastEnders airs from Monday to Thursday at 7.30pm on BBC One.
