Whitney Dean has stood up to serial killer Gray Atkins and ended their relationship in EastEnders.
In Friday's (October 22) episode, their relationship started to unravel once Gray broke the news to Whitney that Chelsea was indeed pregnant with his baby.
"I was worried about telling you," he admitted.

Whitney tried her best to be supportive of Gray, especially following the news that his father had died. The two were later swept up into a kiss after Gray was moved to find some of his old mementos in his dad's belongings.
Just as it looked like Gray and Whitney were happy together, he caught a slip-up as Whitney accidentally mentioned she was "relieved" when Chelsea confided in her about the pregnancy.
"I was so desperate to tell you, but I couldn't. It had to come from Chelsea," Whitney explained.
Gray turned on her when Whitney praised Chelsea for making her "decision" as a single woman. He became even more furious once Whitney explained she'd gone to the clinic with Chelsea before she changed her mind.
"You're just like all the others," Gray vindictively told her. "Lying to my face, sneaking around behind my back. Well, that's going to stop, you need to learn, otherwise we can't be together."
"You think we're gonna be together after this?" Whitney asked as she pulled away.
Gray turned to pick up a knife from the dinner table, before telling her: "You need to go. Go now before I do something I regret."

"You trying to scare me? You don't scare me," Whitney shot back. "You're pathetic… You and me, we're done. For good."
A furious Gray dropped the knife, but continued to stew as the duff-duffs kicked in. Viewers know that Gray is set to have a Christmas wedding, adding a huge wrinkle to tonight's scenes.
Where does the killer go from here?
