The relationship dynamics on EastEnders are forever changing. History is proof that nothing is ever permanent in Walford. A latest casting change has dropped a major hint about a storm that could be building in a distance for Kat and Phil Mitchel. The couple recently tied the knot of holy matrimony and became man and wife on the BBC One soap. Following which, the soap started listing actress Jessie Wallace’s character as Kat Mitchel in the end credits. As opposed to formerly being credited as Kat Slater.
However, at the end of the November 6, 2023, episode, EastEnders reverted Jessie’s character listing back to Kat Slater! We can’t help but read into it a little! Ardent viewers of the soap know that the road that led Kat and Phil to the alter was anything but smooth. In fact, the biggest bump in the road came just days before the wedding when Phil cheated on his bride to be with Emma Harding. As of now. Kat is blissfully unaware of everything that had transpired between Phil and Emma.
Is Phil About To Be Exposed On EastEnders?
We wonder if that is about to change now! After all, the makers wouldn’t have included the angle at all if they had no intentions of circling back to it at a later point! Interestingly, the latest EastEnders spoilers for the week of November 13, 2023, reveal that Phil will walk in to find Alfie Moon in conversation with Kat. Seeing them together stirs a fear in him that Alfie might spill the Emma secret to Kat. However, later, when Phil takes up the matter with Alfie, the latter assures the former that he has no intentions of exposing his treachery.
But is Alfie’s disinterest in exposing Phil to Kat enough to keep the secret buried on EastEnders? Let us remind you that Alfie is not the only one who knows of Phil’s deceit. Keanu too, is aware of what happened between Phil and Emma. It’s no secret that Phil and Keanu are often at each other’s throats. So, it is totally plausible that one such confrontation could lead to Keanu spilling the beans of Phil and Emma’s romantic tryst. Which could in turn completely blow up Kat and Phil’s marriage!
Do you think this cast listing is a hint at that very storm building up? Tell us in the comments. Meanwhile, stay tuned to TV Season & Spoilers for more EastEnders updates on Kat and Phil’s marital future!
