EastEnders fans brand Whitney a ‘homewrecker’ as she tries to kiss Gray

Gray is married to Chantelle

EastEnders fans have branded Whitney Dean a ‘homewrecker’ after she tried to kiss married Gray Atkins.

Over the last few months, Gray has been working as Whitney’s solicitor as she is up for a murder charge.

But as he’s been helping her, it’s become more and more clear she has feelings for him, despite the fact he’s married to her friend Chantelle.

In last night’s episode (Tuesday, June 9) Gray and Chantelle had Whitney stay with them after she revealed she was struggling to sleep in her home, where Leo was killed.

When she left, Gray became angry with Chantelle as she needed to use his car to do some errands for her boss, Kheerat.

As viewers know Gray is abusive and gets jealous easily, so when he checked his car tracker and saw his wife had been to various locations, he was fuming.

But when he spotted the car had been used without his knowledge a few days previously, he became even more angry.

Later, he blew off a dinner with Chantelle’s family to help Whitney, but things didn’t quite go to plan.
