EastEnders viewers convinced 'evil' Ben Mitchell will push Gray to snap and kill Kush

EastEnders fans are convinced that Ben Mitchell will push Gray Atkins to murder Kush Kazemi (Davood Ghadami).

On Friday evening’s instalment of the BBC One soap, Phil Mitchell’s furious son had an explosive conversation with Gray (Toby-Alexander Smith) after he discovered that Kush had grassed the family up in a bid to swerve a prison sentence.

Kush told his fiancée Whitney Dean (Shona McGarty) that he grassed on the Mitchell clan after initially agreeing to a deal with Phil and Ben.

And as a result, the pair packed their bags and fled Albert Square in a bid to catch the first flight to Dubai where they would be safe away from the wrath of the Mitchell’s.

But fans are now sure that Gray will be pushed to kill Kush as Ben continues to pressure him.

Following tonight’s explosive episode, viewers flocked to Twitter to share their thoughts on Kush’s future.

“Looks like Ben is going to push Gray to snap and kill Kush,” another echoed.

“Oh, it’s just not going to end well for poor Kush. He’s going to be killed by either Ben, Phil or Gray. There’s no way out now,” another suggested.

Meanwhile, someone else quipped: “Kush and Whitney have no money, yet they are flying off to Dubai which is one of the most expensive places in the world. Lol. Don’t think Kush is going to make it on the flight if Gray has anything to do with it.”

While viewers are not sure how it will all end for Kush just yet, it was confirmed last year that actor Davood Ghadami, 38, would be leaving EastEnders.

Davood has played the role of Kush since 2014.

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