He was summoned back to Walford by old pal Nigel Bates who realised there was something seriously wrong with Phil.
Viewers know Phil has been secretly battling depression.
His mental health decline hit rock bottom last week when he planned to end his own life.
Grant, Nigel and Linda Carter battled to save him and only managed it because the gun Phil planned to use had no bullets in it.
This week Grant visited Phil in the mental health clinic he was receiving treatment at – but Phil rejected his help.
He told him to pack up and get back to his life in Portugal, disowning him for good.
Having reached rock bottom, Grant went to say goodbye to Sharon before he travelled back to his home.
But with Sharon struggling with the death of Martin Fowler, she’s vulnerable too.
Now spoiler pictures have shown the pair falling back into old habits.
Sharon is currently dating her third Mitchell – Grant’s cousin Teddy.
