Now fans have been left heartbroken by an emotional Lexi revelation.
EastEnders: Lola and Lexi hosted a fundraiser
Last night, Lola and Lexi hosted a Bows and Whistles fundraiser at Peggy’s. They hoped to raise money for charities supporting those with brain tumours.
Before the fundraiser got underway, Lexi told Ben to cough up whilst shoving a bucket in his face.
She then revealed that she had put all of her pocket money towards finding a cure for her mum.
Lola was shocked by this revelation and realised that Lexi still thought that she would get better.
With this, she decided to tell her family that she only has six months left to live.
Ben warned Lola about telling Lexi her prognosis but Lola said that they couldn’t keep sugar-coating things anymore.
Lexi was heartbroken after hearing this but decided to carry on with the fundraiser as it was her and her mum’s special day.
EastEnders fans left heart-broken by Lexi’s revelation
After hearing that Lexi thought that Lola would get better and had spent all her pocket money on finding a cure, fans have been left in tears.
One fan wrote: “Ouch! EastEnders literally just broke my heart into a million pieces! Little Lexi giving her savings just in the hopes of her mum getting better. I’m never going to recover from Lola’s storyline. It’s broken me every step.”
Another tweeted: “Lexi saving her money for her mam thinking she was gunna get better,” followed by a crying face emoji.

My heart is hurting for Lexi πππππππ. She's grown up with Lola her whole life. Lola spent 6 years of her life bringing up Lexi single handedly. It'll be so heartbreaking for Lexi when her mum passes away. They have such a close bond. #EastEnders pic.twitter.com/4tKnKw46xi
