After finding an old photo of Kat, Alfie with Tommy, Bert and Ernie, Jean becomes desperate to help her and comes up with a plan to get her cheap tickets to see her family in Spain.
Despite Mo and Stacey warning her to stay out of Kat’s business, Jean pushes ahead and eventually the other Slaters come round and give Jean box of dodgy shampoo to sell.
She’s delighted when she tells Kat the news while Kat does her best to cover her obvious worry and agrees to go to Spain.
Jean is thrilled as Kat gets ready to jet off while Hayley watches on in interest. Being the only person who knows what happened with Kat and Alfie, she wonders if Kat is lying and has other plans instead.
Hayley then takes the opportunity to try and blackmail Kat, telling her that she’ll reveal the truth to the others if she doesn’t pay her to stay quiet.
As Kat prepares to fly to Spain at the end of the week, Hayley warns her that she isn’t going anywhere until Kat pays up and she threatens to reveal her secret.
Will Hayley go through with it? And just what is it that Kat’s hiding from the rest of the family?

She’s been acting shady since returning to Walford earlier this year, barely having mentioned Alfie and laughing off comments that something is wrong.
But when Stacey called Alfie to talk about Kat, the cleaner almost went through the roof when she found out. Plus she’d been cancelling Alfie’s calls herself.
And when Stacey tried to get her to see the kids, Kat lied about taking them out for dinner. Will we finally learn what the big secret is?
