But money is running low in the Slater household

Lily Slater is ready to become a mother after finding out her tryst with Ricky Mitchell resulted in a surprise pregnancy.

But while she contemplates motherhood, her own mother Stacey (Lacey Turner) is left to think about finances for their entire family.

Coming up next week on BBC One, Stacey continues to worry about money when the twelve-year-old reveals she needs a new uniform.

But with Whitney Dean’s (Shona McGarty) experience with Edwards’ Syndrome – which prompted her to terminate her pregnancy in devastating scenes – on her mind, Stacey feels more grateful than ever for her family.

Bolstered when thinking about her healthy family, Stacey goes on the hunt for extra work.

Her quest leads her straight to Linda Carter (Kellie Bright) for a part-time shift at The Vic.

Unfortunately, the pub landlady declines which leads to Stacey’s mother Jean (Gillian Wright) to secure additional cleaning work for the both of them.

While the money is undoubtedly welcome, Stacey grows increasingly exhausted and, after taking on night shifts with Jean, she accidentally scolds her hand as she rushes to open her bap van.

In later scenes at the clinic, Stacey opens up to Sonia Fowler (Natalie Cassidy) about her mum-guilt and money struggles.

But she then makes a shocking discovery.

Viewers and Stacey alike were left reeling in shock when Lily Slater was said to be pregnant.

All jumped to the conclusion that the young girl must have been abused and social services led an investigation to prove it.

Eventually, Lily revealed the father of her baby was none other than Ricky Jr., proving once and for all she hadn’t been taken advantage of.

But after initially deciding to have an abortion, Lily accepted her future as a teen mum – and was even made to meet her father Ryan Malloy who got wind of her pregnancy.

Stacey is trying her best to keep her family life and business afloat, while living in fear she may lose Lily to Ryan.

How will she cope with her failing finances?

Could it all take a toll on her mental health?

EastEnders airs from Monday to Thursday on BBC One.
