EastEnders hunk Keanu Taylor (Danny Walters) and Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean) have had a rocky relationship from the get-go after she started an affair with him while married to Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden).
Not only did Keanu impregnate Sharon in a shocking twist, he did the same with her step-daughter Louise Mitchell – resulting in Phil attempting to get rid of Keanu.
As Keanu returned after a year away, he fought to get Sharon back – and he managed to do so, but it’s not smooth sailing for the pair.

Speaking to Daily Star at the TRIC Awards, Danny teased the next steps for the couple, but a happy ending might not be in tow.

He said: “Keanu would say she is his kryptonite, and he absolutely adores her. But Danny Walers will say that happily ever afters don’t really happen in dramas.
“For there to be good storytelling, you have to have conflict. For every light, you have to have dark.”
He added: “I want them to work, but I also want them to go through some issues along the way.”

Their most recent issue is that Sharon bought the Archers for him, which hasn’t impressed Keanu too much.
Danny added: “He wants to be the man of the house, he’s got a very toxic masculinity in that sense. His ego has been hurt, he feels a bit emasculated.”
“He finds it very difficult to put his ego aside, so that does create issues in their relationship.”

While Sharon and Keanu are facing issues at the moment, it’s expected the pair will tie the knot on Christmas Day following a flash-forward of Sharon in a wedding dress and their engagement.
The flash-forward saw six women including Sharon involved in a murder of a man – though his identity remains unknown.
Danny said: “Even my theory changes all the time, but I think they’re going to really entertain and toy with the idea of giving out cufflinks to multiple characters along the way.
“I think at some point Keanu probably will have the cufflinks but we don’t know who it’ll be.”
Keanu is likely going to be wearing cufflinks as it’s expected to be his own wedding day – but it could mean any wedding guest could be murdered in the pub.
The mystery will finally be unveiled on Christmas Day this year.
EastEnders airs Monday to Thursday on BBC One at 7.30pm
