EastEnders: Zack tried to kiss Lauren

Last night in Walford, Zack told Penny, Lauren and Sonia that he’d returned home without Whitney.

He needed to return back to work whilst Whitney stayed in Milton Keynes looking after Britney.

Drowning his sorrows in The Vic, Zack opened up to Penny about his upset over Whitney’s decision.

After this, Zack bumped into Lauren and soon started opening up to her as well.

However, he misread the signals whilst drunk and leaned in to kiss Lauren. Lauren rejected him, stunned by his actions.

It wasn’t long after this that Whitney started to call Zack’s mobile…
