EastEnders - Ben Mitchell will be left humiliated when his mother Kathy Beale discusses his sexuality.

Kathy will be forced to revisit her misgivings as a parent next week during a heart-to-heart with Jane, in which she realises just how troubled her grandson Bobby really is.

When Jane reveals that Ben had been in prison prior to murdering Heather Trott, Kathy's thoughts start to return to her son and she later decides to speak to Phil.

However, as Kathy confronts Phil about the way he has brought Ben up, she gets more than she bargained for when both Ben and Abi hear her talking about his sexuality.

With Ben furious with her, Kathy shares her fears with Jane and wonders if she's lost him for good this time.

Meanwhile, Ben is left to pick up the pieces with Abi, who will undoubtedly be keen to know if there is any truth in what Kathy said. Will he finally be honest with her?
