Whitney’s upcoming exit storyline will be a must-watch, involving the long-awaited return of Bianca Butcher (Patsy Palmer) and there’s more tragedy on the cards for the character as she’s hit by an oncoming vehicle.
Various stars of the long-running serial, including James Farrar (Zack Hudson) and Natalie’s Sonia – were recently pictured shooting scenes on-location opposite Shona and Patsy.
Metro obtained pictures of the showdown that ensues, with an arrest set to be made amid the heated scenes, but a further update confirms that pregnant Whitney’s life will be left hanging in the balance.
Pictures of a night shoot see Shona, as Whitney, running through the streets chasing a young girl, whose identity is currently unknown.
The young woman soon finds herself in danger, with Whitney coming to her rescue and pushing her out of the way of a speeding car, which subsequently knocks her down.
The question is: will Whitney and her unborn child survive the devastating collision? Or will this serve as the character’s exit?
