EastEnders fans have been left reeling at pregnant Lily Slater's unexpected request. On Monday night, the pregnant 12-year-old was nervous ahead of her 20-week scan.
To ease her worries, she asked her mum, Stacey, if she could host a gender reveal party for her wee one. Ricky Mitchell, who is the father of Lily's unborn child, was also feeling anxious after his mum, Sam, spoke about the responsibilities of parenthood.
Sam makes an off-the-cuff comment about how becoming a parent ruins your social life as you focus on a newborn, leaving young Ricky scared about becoming a dad at 12. Initially this comment put Ricky off attending the baby scan, but after some words of encouragement from Stacey, he went along to support Lily.
