EastEnders' pregnant Lily Slater comes to a decision next week, seemingly regarding her recent baby news.
The 12 year old was shocked earlier this month, after she was told she was pregnant.
Her mother Stacey Slater was in turmoil over the news, while initially keeping it a secret from the rest of the family, including Lily's dad Martin Fowler.
Lily opened up to Stacey that she had slept with Ricky Mitchell, also aged 12, late last year.
They "only had sex once" she said as she revealed they were not together, revealing they had got close after confiding in each other about their personal lives.

In recent scenes, Martin and the rest of the family found out the truth after the police and social services continued to investigate how Lily got pregnant.
Spoilers for next week reveal Martin is desperate for Lily to have an abortion, and urges Stacey to join him in encouraging Lily.
Stacey refuses, not wanting to force Lily into making any decisions - leaving Martin angry.

Meanwhile, Lily has a conversation with her aunt Whitney Dean, who is also pregnant, which leads to a decision.
Whitney has no idea about her niece's secret pregnancy, with just the household and Martin knowing at this point.
Lily's conversation with an oblivious Whitney about motherhood leads to a decision, as she heads home and tells Stacey what she's decided.

Ricky, meanwhile, currently remains unaware that Lily is pregnant and he is the father, and as far as he is aware no one knows they slept together.
Viewers had speculated that Ricky Jr was the dad, after noticing the pair had featured in scenes together recently.
Fans believed they had worked out when the characters slept together too, after noticing an episode in November saw them speaking to each other before Ricky snuck away from a family event, and then the next day Lily was smiling at messages on her phone.
EastEnders airs Mondays to Thursdays at 7:30pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
