EastEnders' Keanu left for dead as fans 'work out' character's heartbreaking exit

EastEnders fans are sure they've cracked a heartbreaking exit for Keanu Taylor after he was left to dead tonight.

It's been quite a dramatic few days for Keanu, who was hoping to be celebrating the christening of his and Sharon's son Albie, after the pair finally got back together following some up and downs in their relationship.

However, things didn't go quite to plan at the christening, as Keanu was arrested right outside the church by the police after they found multiple batches of cocaine in the van which he had agreed to drive for Ravi and his criminal boss.

Keanu had agreed to drive the van for Ravi's boss after being put out by his friends splashing the cash for Albie for his christening present. He was determined to earn more to support his family and ended up looking to illegal means.

Late for the event, he was forced to leave the van - which was packed full of cocaine in white goods items - outside the church, with the police intercepting him and seizing the vehicle and arresting Keanu.

He was later realised on bail, and returned to the Queen Vic to celebrate with everyone, but Sharon was fuming and devastated he had got caught up in the drugs and all that was happening.

Horrified, she refused to speak to him before he was forced to leave and head to work - where he was quickly let go by boss Phil.

Determined to make things right, he called Sharon and hurried towards her house - just as Ravi stepped out and stopped him.

The pair had a tense exchange of words, where Ravi warned him not to say anything, before he beat him up and left him for dead on the pavement, leaving fans horrified by the exchange. Keanu seemed lifeless as he laid on the floor.

Fans of the BBC soap are now convinced they've worked out a heartbreaking exit for Keanu.

"Omg are they gonna kill off keanu #EastEnders," one fan suggested, whilst another added: "Horrible what Ravi did to Keanu and then runs away from the scene because he heard voices #EastEnders."

A third shared: "Why would Ravi beat up Keanu and then tell him to get up and act like nothing happened? It's clear that Christos has Ravi on a tight leash and is feeding him instructions. Poor Keanu doesn't deserve this. #EastEnders."
