EastEnders’ Kat Slater and Alfie Moon are set to share a kiss, after Alfie makes a big romantic confession about his ex-wife.
The iconic soap couple have had a difficult time lately, with their son Tommy becoming violent with not only Kat but with his younger brothers.
When Jean found out what was going on, she made a secret call to social services, and it was decided that Tommy should be placed in the care of Zack next door.
Kat mistakenly thought that it was Alfie who phoned social services and kicked him out the flat, but in Monday’s episode (October 28), Jean finally admitted that it was her who made the call.
Things will continue to be tense between Kat and Alfie this week, but it seems that their feud may be resolved when Alfie comforts Kat at the Minute Mart.
But while Kat will make friends with Alfie, next week she continues to blank Stacey and Jean, ahead of their social services meeting about Tommy.
Alfie attempts to build bridges and asks Stacey to call a truce, before lying to Kat in order to get her to meet the Slaters at The Vic.
Kat is furious when she arrives at the pub and she isn’t keen to make amends, but a heartfelt speech from Alfie changes her mind and she reconciles with her family.
As Kat tells Alfie that she is grateful for what he did for her, the pair’s electric chemistry doesn’t go unnoticed by Freddie – and Alfie admits that he still has feelings for Kat.
The next morning, things are difficult in the flat, and Ian gives Alfie some advice about how to approach the awkward situation he is in.
At the social services meeting, Tommy is cold towards Kat, and she is terrified that they will never get their son back. But there is good news, as the social worker believes they can start working towards Tommy returning home.
Alfie explains that they are desperate to get their son home for Christmas, and the session ends on a positive note when he begins to get through to Tommy.
Kat is pleased as the pair return to the flat and, grateful for Alfie’s support, she surprises him with a kiss. But things are confusing for them both, and Kat later asks for Stacey’s take on the situation with Alfie.
Meanwhile, Alfie consults Ian and Freddie – and as he can be seen clutching a photo of his beloved Nana Moon, there could be some emotional conversations about the past in store.
Is a reunion on the cards for Kat and Alfie?
