EastEnders reveals Sharon's baby daddy - but only eagle-eyed fans find out

EastEnders have finally given us the identity of Sharon Mitchell's baby daddy.

In shocking scenes, Sharon discovered whether Phil Mitchell or Keanu Taylor is the father of her unborn child.

She nervously opened up the letter with the DNA test results with potential daddy Keanu and step daughter Louise just metres away in the kitchen.

But some EastEnders fans may have missed the crucial moment as it was hard to read the results.

Eagle-eyed viewers would have discovered that Phil is NOT the biological father.

Unless Sharon has been sleeping with someone we don't know about, this must indicate that Keanu is the daddy.

So Keanu is expecting two little bundles of joy as he is also having another baby Taylor with Louise.

Sharon was absolutely devastated to find out that she is actually having a child with her younger lover.

She ran into the kitchen and tried to get rid of the evidence by ripping up the letter and dumping it in a purple plastic bag.

But she was almost caught out when Phil returned unexpectedly and realised something was wrong.

Sharon burst into tears then lied through her teeth and claimed the midwife had phoned to say her blood tests were good.

A relieved Phil gave his wife a big hug, while she stared at Keanu, who realised not all was as it seems.

Later on Sharon dumped the bag with the ripped up results in a bin, which was then picked out by Bailey doing her recycling project.

To get back at the Mitchell's for not doing their bit to save the planet she dumped the bag in the Arches.

Will this be how Phil discovers Keanu is the daddy?

EastEnders viewers took to Twitter after discovering Phil was not the father.

One viewer said: "Who's the daddy? Keanu's the daddy. That's who's the daddy. Shouldn't ask the question if you don't want like the answer Sharon"

Another added: "Oh wow! It’s confirmed, Daddy Keanu is daddy to TWO babies on the way!"

A third said: "So Sharon is 100% pregnant with Keanu’s baby then. Can’t wait until Phil finds out!"

EastEnders airs Mondays and Fridays at 8pm, and Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7:30pm on BBC One.
