EastEnders: Ben and Lexi watched Lola’s video

Last night, Lexi was nervous about starting her first day at secondary school.

Ben called her over and explained that he wanted to show her something. He had been waiting for Jay to join them but he’d been held up.

He then put on a video that Lola had made for Lexi before she passed away.

In the video, Lola gave Lexi some advice about being kind and being herself as she got ready for her big day.

Lola then said that she was with Lexi in spirit every step of the way as Ben and Lexi watched the video in tears.

Another viewer added: “Lola’s video message for Lexi destroyed me. At least Lexi knows that Lola is with her in spirit & in her heart.”
