EastEnders’ Sharon Mitchell is set to have an affair with Keanu Taylor.
The Mitchell matriarch – played by Letitia Dean – will get up close and personal with the grease monkey (Danny Walters) in the coming weeks while they spend some time together at the Arches garage – but their fling will leave Sharon’s husband and Keanu’s boss Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden) fuming.
A source told The Sun’s Bizarre TV column: "In the next few weeks viewers will start to see the pair with their eyes on each other.
"By the end of the next couple of months they won’t be able to keep their hands off each other.
"Keanu is a brave man as Phil is not someone you want to mess with."
Sharon and Keanu worked together earlier this year to get back at Max Branning (Jake Wood) when they set him up for stealing a guy’s car, but things look set to get steamier between the hunky mechanic and the Walford veteran in the near future.
The source added: "She and Keanu hit it off through the Arches as Sharon does the admin side of the business and they’ll have a lot of alone time.
"They already saw a spark a few months ago when they worked together shortly after Max Branning returned to the square and Sharon and Keanu tried to set him up for selling a stolen car."
Reports of Sharon’s upcoming infidelity comes just weeks after Phil snogged returning Albert Square resident Mel Owen (Tamzin Outhwaite).
What’s more, Phil and Sharon’s relationship began with an affair in a saga dubbed ‘Sharongate’.
Sharon was married to Phil’s brother Grant Mitchell (Ross Kemp) but confessed on tape that she had slept with Phil in October 1994.
More than 25 million tuned in to see the shocking moment, after which Grant beat Phil up and he was lucky to survive.
