EastEnders favourite Jean Slater (played by Gillian Wright) is currently enjoying a romance with Daniel Cook (Ade Edmonson) after he made a shock return to Walford over Christmas. Now, Daniel will learn the news he has just weeks to live, leaving Jean devastated.
Jean had a difficult 2019 as she has had to deal with the drama of the rest of the Slaters whilst undergoing cancer treatment.
She formed a close bond with fellow patent Daniel and it became obvious there was more to it than friendship.
This culminated in Daniel faking his own death after not wanting her to fall for him before she lost him.
He made an appearance back in the Square over the festive season to try and come to the rescue of the Slater family.
