EastEnders has revealed that Linda Carter will make a “life-changing” decision this Christmas, in new advanced spoilers.
This month, Linda’s alcoholism has begun to take control once again, as she relapsed after Bernie returned to the Square and reminded her that she will never be able to move on from Keanu’s death.
Viewers have seen Linda drinking heavily in recent episodes, and she had a blazing row with mum Elaine after she found out that her late father was gay and was in a secret relationship.

December will see Linda’s situation worsen further, with the beloved character suffering a “very public humiliation” in upcoming episodes.
Now, new advanced spoilers released by the BBC reveal that in the run-up to Christmas, Linda faces an important choice, though what it relates to is not yet known.
