Sharon Watts: Last News

EastEnders fans are buzzing with theories about a potential jail twist for an unsuspecting Walford resident. Recently, Sharon Watts found herself under police scrutiny over the death of her late fiance Keanu Taylor, whose body was discovered last week.

EastEnders fans are buzzing with speculation that a beloved character could be making a comeback to the popular soap, following a hint dropped in Tuesday night's episode (9 April). Recently, Sharon Watts found herself under police scrutiny over the death of her late fiancé Keanu Taylor, whose body was discovered last week. Long-time viewers will remember that Keanu met his end at Christmas at the hands of Linda Carter, who killed him with a meat thermometer in an attempt to protect Sharon.The Six, comprising Sharon, Linda, Suki Panesar, Stacey Slater, Kathy Beale and Denise Fox, then conspired to cover up the crime and their involvement in it.

Thursday's EastEnders episode had a rather dramatic end with Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean) wrongly arrested for the murder of Keanu Taylor (Danny Walters).The arrest came as Keanu's sister Bernadette Taylor (Clair Norris) vowed to avenge her brother's death. Viewers of the soap will remember that while Sharon was involved in hiding Keanu's body, it was actually Linda Carter (Kellie Bright) who killed him on Christmas Day as he attempted to strangle Sharon. After this, Linda, Sharon, Suki Panesar (Balvinder Sopal), Denise Fox (Diane Parish), Kathy Beale (Gillian Taylforth) and Stacey Slater (Lacey Turner) buried Keanu's body under the cafe.

After months of evading suspicions, sadly The Six’s worst nightmare finally came true during Tuesday evening’s visit to EastEnders, when Keanu Taylor’s body was unearthed beneath Kathy Beale’s cafe. As regular viewers will recall, Sharon Watts, Linda Carter, Denise Fox, Stacey Slater, Suki Panesar and Kathy Beale were all implicated in the mechanic’s death on Christmas Day, and chose to cover up their crime by burying his body beneath the cafe.

When EastEnders first launched last year’s nail biting Christmas murder plot all the way back in February 2023, fans of the soap were hooked on the constant twists and turns into the story as it unfolded before our very eyes. However, since the first arc of the storyline concluded and revealed that sadly Keanu Taylor was the victim, fans at home have been less than thrilled with the storyline’s progression.

EastEnders fans think they've figured out what Sharon Watts has really done with the murder weapon that killed Keanu Taylor after the deadly object mysteriously vanished following last year's Christmas murder. Sharon made a surprise return to Walford on Monday evening (1 April), apologising to The Six for leaving them after the shocking events that cost her fiancé his life.

After an extended break away from our screens following the fallout of Keanu Taylor’s murder last Christmas, Walford favourite Sharon Watts makes her long awaited return to EastEnders this week - and as expected, brings more than a little chaos with her. As regular viewers will know, Keanu was accidentally murdered last Christmas by Linda Carter, when she stabbed him with a meat fork to stop him from choking Sharon to death, following the revelation that her son Albie wasn’t his.

EastEnders actor Navin Chowdhry, who plays the mean Nish Panesar, has admitted he’s worried about how fans see him because of his role. Navin, who joined the soap in 2022, doesn't want people to mix him up with the bad guy he acts as on TV. He shared: "There have been moments when we've had scenes and I'll speak to the producer and I'll say, 'I'm going to have to go on the school run and you're making me beat up every woman on Albert Square'.

EastEnders' star Diane Parish, who plays Denise Fox, has been a key part of the show for nearly 20 years, but now fans are worried that she might be leaving the soap after the dramatic Christmas murder. When Linda Carter killed Keanu Taylor to save her friend Sharon Watts, Denise's 'D' necklace was buried with Keanu's body, and she's scared that if the body is found, she'll be blamed for his death. The Six have decided to pin Nish Panesar's incident on Keanu, but Johnny Carter knows the truth.

Fans of EastEnders are getting nervous because they think they've figured out Johnny Carter's big secret. Viewers of the BBC soap believe he might have some "dark" plans for the people in Walford.

EastEnders favourite Chelsea Fox, portrayed by actress Zaraah Abrahams, made a welcome return to screens in recent episodes of the BBC One soap. Chelsea took centre stage as her mum Denise Fox (Diane Parish) continued to spiral in the aftermath of Keanu Taylor's murder. Fans were pleased to see Chelsea back on their TV screens after the character had been in the background for many months.

EastEnders fans are convinced they've worked out which character reported Denise Fox to the hospital amid her mental health battle after Thursday evening's explosive episode. Jack found his wife wandering through the woods and she begged him to protect her from the devil - who she claimed was Johnny Carter who wants to kill her - but she was later carted off to hospital.

EastEnders fans are convinced a 'dark storyline' is on it's way for Johnny Carter after Denise Fox screamed he's "working for the devil" whilst experiencing disturbing hallucinations in Thursday evening's episode. Viewers of the BBC soap are convinced Johnny is hiding a major secret and insisted they "don't trust him" as he has a tense conversation with his mum Linda as she panics at Denise's outburst.

Details regarding Ben Mitchell's exit storyline have been kept under wraps so far, but EastEnders fans are convinced they've worked out how he'll depart Walford. It was confirmed last year that actor Max Bowden, who has played Ben since 2019, will be leaving EastEnders in 2024. Soap fans think recent episodes have started to point towards Ben's departure, with many certain it will involve the character heading to prison.

EastEnders fans were given a startling blast from the past during Tuesday’s (20 February) visit to Albert Square, as Denise Fox sought out advice from serial killer Lucas Johnson to help try and cope with the guilt of having been complicit to Keanu Taylor’s death. As regular viewers will know, Keanu was fatally stabbed to death on Christmas Day by Linda Carter as she tried to stop him from strangling her friend Sharon Watts, but rather than come clean about the crime, Linda, along with the rest of The Six decided to cover up the murder and even buried the body beneath Kathy’s cafe! But in the wake of the harrowing incident, Denise in particular has been struggling with psychosis and even hallucinations of the dead and buried Keanu - and sought advice from her former pastor Lucas who was serving time in prison for multiple murders himself! Yet while Lucas may have had a deadly streak on screen, actor Don Gilet couldn’t be further from his villainous alter-ego.

EastEnders fans were delivered yet another twist in The Six’s murder plot on Tuesday’s (20 February) visit to Albert Square, as Denise Fox sought out advice from serial killer Lucas Johnson to help try and cope with the guilt of having been complicit to Keanu Taylor’s death. As regular viewers will know, Keanu was fatally stabbed to death on Christmas Day by Linda Carter as she tried to defend her friend Sharon Watts from being strangled to death by the irate mechanic.

Just when you thought The Six had successfully covered up Keanu Taylor’s Christmas Day murder, EastEnders once again added a shocking twist to the tale as the latest episode of the BBC show revealed two devastating developments. As regular viewers will know, Denise Fox, Linda Carter, Stacey Slater, Kathy Beale, Suki Panesar and Sharon Watts were all involved in the murder of Keanu in The Queen Vic, after Linda accidentally fatally stabbed him to stop him from strangling Sharon.
