Anna Knight lets her emotions take over when she’s comforted by Freddie Slater in Tuesday’s episode of EastEnders (7:30 pm. See our TV Guide for full listings).
Anna Knight’s head has been in a spin ever since she found out that she was pregnant with Bobby Beale’s baby. Although Bobby has been a good boyfriend to her, she’s found increasingly hard to push away her feelings for his best friend Freddie Slater.
Anna and Freddie ended up having a drunken one-night-stand before Anna started seeing Bobby. Knowing how smitten Bobby was with Anna, Freddie nobly put his own feelings for her aside to let Bobby and Anna become a couple.
After Anna’s baby bombshell, it has brought her feelings into perspective. Instead of telling Bobby, she’s secretly booked herself in to have an abortion and she’s touched when Freddie turns up to offer his support.
Freddie knows the truth and he begs Anna to be upfront with Bobby, but she refuses, not wanting to hurt him.
The secret is about to be blown wide open when Peter Beale tells his brother that his partner Lauren Branning suspects Anna could be pregnant.
Heading to the Queen Vic to ask Anna the truth, Bobby is devastated when he sees Anna and Freddie having an emotional moment and then tenderly move in for a kiss…
