EastEnders' struggling Louise could expose Keanu's death as she drops huge hint

EastEnders character Louise Mitchell drops huge hint she was somewhat involved with the set up of cheating fiancé Keanu Taylor's murder.

In recent episodes, Louise turned villainous after learning Keanu had an affair with Sharon Mitchell - her stepmum.

Viewers were left gasping at the soap's shocking Christmas Day twist as Keanu appeared to be shot dead by Martin Fowler in graphic scenes when the truth about his affair came to light.

But now Louise may have exposed the real truth on Keanu's death.

Next week, Louise becomes uncomfortable when Karen, her fiancé's mum, gives her daughter baby Peggy a visit - suggesting she feels some kind of guilt for allowing what had happened to Karen's son.

Later in the episode, Louise begins to worry about looking after Peggy and turns to Lisa for support as she opens up to her.

Sharon and Keanu became involved in an illicit affair last year and slept together again just months ago, with her falling pregnant.

Phil Mitchell learned on Christmas Eve that Keanu was the mystery man of wife Sharon, with him also finding out Keanu was the father of Sharon's baby.

All hell broke loose on Christmas Day, as Ben Mitchell plotted revenge and blackmailed Martin into killing him.

However EastEnders fans are convinced Keanu isn't dead and they've been sharing some wild conspiracy theories online.

As well as being convinced that Keanu is alive, many fans think Louise actually helped him get away.

One tweeted: "I kind of hope that Keanu isn’t dead, Louise is just playing along with it all and is really going to run off with him #EastEnders ."

The weirdest conspiracy theory is that Linda Carter is the real killer. The alcoholic pub landlady went missing on Christmas Day after a booze binger landed her in hospital.

One wrote: "Sshe was that drunk she doesn't remember the night... You heard it here first #EastEnders ."

This one looks like it might have the most credibility - Keanu was desperate to save his own life so her persuaded Martin to create an elaborate plot to fake his own death.

Martin didn't really want to kill him anyway, so they filmed the video together and effectively faked the shooting.

It would have allowed Keanu to get away and let Martin off the hook without having to shoot anyone.

*EastEnders airs on Monday on BBC One at 8pm
