EastEnders' Chelsea struggles to cope with Gray's lies as she presses on with baby plan

EastEnders' Chelsea Fox is struggling to cope as she returns to Albert Square after Gray was caught.

The evil serial killer - played by Toby Alexander-Smith - was finally caught by police last week after killing three Walford residents, his wife Chantelle Atkins, much-loved Kush Kamezi and Tina Carter.

And as Chelsea made her return to the Square after Jordan was discharged from hospital, she was clearly finding it difficult with how everyone else was reacting to what happened.

As Whitney came by to visit Chelsea and her son Jordan, she was met by Chelsea's mum Denise.

"If she knew you were even thinking about giving him away," Whitney said as Denise headed off, leaving her with her daughter. Following her comment, Chelsea fired back angrily: "She'd be a hypocrite to say a single word about it."

Whitney then told Chelsea: "I know you feel like everyone's against you, but there is so much love for you around here Chelsea. You've got all the love and support you need to be a great mum to that little boy."

It was clear that the mum-of-one has been struggling, but she continued to press forward with her adoption plan.

"I already am a great mum, sometimes that means making hard decisions. Jordan is being adopted. It's happening," she told Whitney, who looked very concerned by what Chelsea had just said.

Earlier this week, Chelsea revealed her plans to have baby Jordan adopted.

Sitting next to the hospital bed, Chelsea told Whitney she wanted to be able to move on without happened, as she shared: "The only thing that matters now is him. I've made a decision. Once he's better I'm going to put him up for adoption."

Fans were shocked by Chelsea's admission and immediately felt sorry for her.

"Chelsea you cannot give up Jordan for adoption. You're a great mother #EastEnders," one wrote.

A second penned online: "Nah the way Chelsea reacted when she saw Jordan again and the way she tried to protect him from Gray no way she would give him up for adoption. #EastEnders."

" #EastEnders great episode. Didn't expect that from Chelsea saying that," a third wrote.
