A new EastEnders fan theory has predicted that Vicki Fowler could fall pregnant after her fling with Zack Hudson. Full of nerves ahead of Joel’s trial, Vicki was a woman in desperate need of distraction… which she found in the form of Sharon’s brother, Zack.
As they shared a cosy night in together, things got steamy between the pair, leading to a one-night-stand. The next day, Vicki was full of regret, but had no time to wallow in what she’d done as she headed to testify in court against Joel.
Vicki later told Zack that what had happened between them could never happen again, leaving him devastated. Clearly, it’s over in Vicki’s head… but will her time with Zack have lingering consequences?
