EastEnders teases Janine's sudden exit after romance with Mick Carter falls to pieces

Janine Butcher gears up to leave EastEnders after her whirlwind romance with Mick Carter falls apart.

Next week on the BBC soap, Janine wakes up without Mick by his side and quickly ascertains that he is avoiding her.

Keen to discuss the situation to someone else, she admits to Billy that she and Mick haven't been intimate and speaks about her worries regarding the situation.

But things get awkward when she attempts to confront Mick about their lack of intimacy, however he avoids the subject.

Mitch overhears their conversation and Mick admits to him that he can't be intimate with Janine.

On Tuesday, Mick continues to avoid Janine as he goes for a run but he bumps into Mitch, who is embarrassed over their conversation yesterday.

Meanwhile, it's Billy's birthday and Janine gifts him with a present, but her mood turns sour after he reveals that Mick once had a fling with Whitney.

Later, Mitch apologises to Mick for acting awkwardly around him and asks him more about his worries, as Mick admits his mind is stopping him from being intimate.

After Mitch tries to give Mick some advice, Janine tries - but fails - to seduce Mick.

Janine later tells Billy that she will leave Walford if the judge gives her full custody of Scarlett.

On Wednesday, Janine reiterates her plans to Sonia and tells her that she is planning to move to Australia with her daughter.

She goes on to tell Mick that she doesn't want his support at the hearing the next day.

However, Frankie notices the bad atmosphere between the two of them and suggests that Mick act more romantically towards Janine and invite her to dinner.

Yet, it all turns horribly wrong when Janine discovers that her clothes have shrunk in the wash - but it gives her an idea...

Her plan, however, backfires and their date at Walford East is a disaster.

Thankfully, they laugh about it, but the mood turns when Mick makes an admission...

Will Janine leave Walford for good?

*EastEnders airs Mondays - Thursdays at 7.30pm on BBC One
