With 32 years of romantic history behind them, it’s no surprise that there’s
still underlying feelings between Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean) and Phil
Mitchell (Steve McFadden) in EastEnders.
Their on/off relationship has been a talking point between viewers of the
BBC One soap for decades, ever since the Sharongate scandal that saw their affair exposed by Phil’s brother Grant (Ross Kemp), who was married to Sharon at the time.
They eventually married in 2014, but divorced six years later after Phil caused the boat crash that killed her beloved son Denny (Bleau Landau).
However, in tonight’s (18th June) episode, there seemed to be a breakthrough and hopes of a reconciliation after Sharon confessed everything about Keanu Taylor’s (Danny Walters) Christmas Day murder.
