EastEnders fans convinced Whitney will murder Ben after death threat

Fans of EastEnders are convinced Ben Mitchell is going to be murdered by Whitney Dean.

Manipulator Ben was exposed for his affair with Whit’s intended Callum Highway last night and it’s safe to say she was not happy with him.

Devastated by Callum’s confession, Whitney decided she needed to make Ben suffer and went to confront him.

Barging into his house and telling him she wanted to “compare notes”, Whitney launched into a blistering rant against Ben.

“Come on, got nothing to say?” she said to him.

“This is your perfect scenario isn’t it? Breaking hearts and holding power over everyone.

“You’re pathetic, you just can’t stand the thought of anyone else being happy can you Ben?

“Poor little Ben everyone’s got to be as miserable as he is because he’s had such a tough life.

“Who hasn’t had a tough life, eh? No-one else matters to you. I bet you wouldn’t even look twice at him if he wasn’t happy with someone else.”

But then Whitney’s rage took a sinister turn when she threatened to kill Ben – and meant every word of it.

“He’s just another person to manipulate,” she added.

“You stay away from us or I swear to God I will kill you.”

Ben stoked the fire by asking her how she could marry him, but she insisted she would regardless of what he had done.

She said: “Because I love him and I deserve to be happy. I ain’t going to let you ruin that for me.”

With a death confirmed for Walford next week, fans are now concerned Ben will be the one to die – with Whitney being responsible.

One said: “#EastEnders fans! I’ve cracked something!

“There’s meant to be a death with a gun. And when Whitney threatened Ben, EastEnders called it a ‘Warning shot’ what do guns do? They shoot @bbceastenders #EastEnders.”

Another said: “I’ve felt for a while and even more so with what Whitney said tonight that all this is leading to a Who Killed Ben? He’s[bleeped] off every character in the square since his return that anyone could be a suspect.”

A third said: “Guarantee that EastEnders are leading up to a ‘who done it?’ with Ben Mitchell (he will probably be killed) and then it’ll be between Keanu, Louise, Callum, Phil, Stuart and Whitney for who killed him.”

Another added: “Wonder if it is Ben that gets killed as Pam [Coker] is back for a few episodes. Could she be back for his funeral?”
