Harvey makes a catastrophic mistake.
EastEnders has confirmed danger for baby Charli amid the ongoing Harvey Monroe and Maya Houssain storyline.
Harvey recently learned that Maya’s husband Abdul is the man that his son Aaron and his far-right group attacked in a racist hate crime, which left him seriously injured.
Harvey has since been helping Maya with her financial worries, notably as her house was under threat of repossession.
In new scenes set to air next week, Harvey continues to work hard in order to make money for Maya, while Jean is left frustrated and hurt that he is prioritising a job over her.
She asks why he didn’t make it home last night, Harvey saying he was getting lots of fares and so took them to earn more cash.
Nevertheless, he wants to get back in Jean’s good books, and offers to help Stacey out by collecting Charli from the nursery. However, he puts the baby in danger after falling asleep in the hot car with Charli in the back.
Luckily, Jack spots them just in time and they are rushed to hospital, Harvey despairing that he allowed this to happen.
Jean and Harvey’s relationship hangs in the balance as a result – but will it survive?
In other EastEnders news, star Laila Rouass departed the soap this week as Ayesha Siddhu, and has shared a goodbye message on Instagram.
“Thank you so much for all your wonderful messages and support. Had the best time being Ayesha,” she wrote.
