Who is Lexi Pearce's dad in EastEnders?
Ben Mitchell (Max Bowden) is Lexi's biological dad in EastEnders. Despite Ben being gay, he had a one night stand with Lola in 2011, which resulted in the birth of their daughter Lexi.
Lola then gave birth to Lexi during the memorable live Olympic episode in 2012 when she went into labour as her grandfather Billy Mitchell (Perry Fenwick) was carrying the Olympic Flame through Walford.
Initially, Lola refused to reveal the father of baby Lexi until she eventually confessed to Ben's dad Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden) that Ben was the father so that he would help her get Lexi back after she was arrested for assault.
Prior to her death, Lola's husband Jay Brown (Jamie Borthwick) adopted Lexi so that Lola would be reassured that her daughter would be taken care of after her death as troubled Ben had gone off the rails once again.
Technically, Lexi has three dads, the third one being her stepfather, Callum Highway (Tony Clay), who is married to her dad, Ben.
