SHOCKING NEWS!! EastEnders’ Lauren takes dangerous action in medication story

Lauren Branning made a dangerous decision on EastEnders as her medication storyline

continued.

Lauren recently discovered that she is pregnant with Peter Beale’s baby, though she has been in

pain ever since the crush at the club.

This has led to a growing dependency on pain medication, with Tuesday’s (November 26) episode beginning as Peter apologised to Lauren for his recent “over-protectiveness”.

As they began to mend their relationship, Lauren expressed some discomfort, with the character lying to Peter as she remarked that it was “morning sickness”.

After resting up in the café, where Peter had gone to fetch some herbal tea remedies, Lauren lashed out and remarked that he would need to find himself a job if he truly wanted to “help her”, with Peter left shocked as she stormed out.

Lauren later met up with Amy, who was dealing with her own struggles. After a candid conversation, the pair agreed to spend the night in as they watched a film together, though it wouldn’t go exactly as planned.

As Lauren went to help Amy, she discovered some pain medication in the closet, with Amy explaining that she had forgotten to take it back to the pharmacist. Lauren offered to return it, but looked nervous as she considered using the medicine for herself.
