EastEnders spoilers follow for Tuesday’s episode (3 June), which is available to watch now on streaming service BBC iPlayer and hasn’t yet aired on TV.
EastEnders has confirmed the identity of Kat Slater’s new business partner – and it isn’t exactly a match made in heaven.
This week, Harvey wanted to start a new limo business and set about trying to poach some of Kat’s drivers. She was naturally furious, still angry on Jean’s behalf following his affair with Kathy.
Harvey later asked Kat to go into business together, but she refused – though she realised that it could be a good opportunity for her and Alfie instead.
The couple brainstormed business plans in today’s episode, with Kat eager to set up a fake wedding photoshoot to promote their new venture.

She organised a meeting with Cheeky, the owner of the limo, and encouraged him to sell the vehicle to her. Kat was shocked at his price, but to secure the deal she assured him that she would get him the money in cash by the end of the day.
To do this, Kat consulted ex-husband Phil and asked for an advance on her settlement, now their divorce is official.
Meanwhile, Harvey met with Cheeky, who told him he’d had another offer for the limo. While he accepted defeat, Cheeky suggested that he pays half the cash and joins forces with the other investor.
