EastEnders has been full of drama in recent weeks, from Cindy Beales' return to Lilly Slater giving birth, and it looks set to continue.<\/p>\n

In another dramatic twist, legendary character Sharon Watts could be about to leave Walford after spending 38 years on the square.<\/p>\n

Sharon, played by Letitia Dean, 55, will be offered a once in a lifetime opportunity next week by boxing promoter Dorian.<\/p>\n

He offers her the chance to leave the Boxing Den behind and go to Abu Dhabi, telling her that it will "set her up for life."<\/p>\n

At first, the businesswoman dismisses the offer, but as she thinks about it further, she becomes intrigued by the chance to head to the United Arab Emirates.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Could she be about to leave her life behind and make the switch?<\/p>\n

One thing that could keep Sharon in London is her young son, Albie Watts, who she shares with Keanu Taylor.<\/p>\n

She and Keanu split recently, after she helped Lisa Fowler escape the Square and take Keanu's child, Peggy, with her.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Sharon is also part of the six women who have been involved in the flashforward episode which aired earlier this year.<\/p>\n

The episode looked ahead to the festive season, as Sharon, Linda Carter, Stacey Slater, Denise Fox, Kathy Cotton and Suki Panesar stand in a very Christmassy Queen Vic.<\/p>\n

A man is on the floor of the pub dead, and Sharon is wearing a white wedding dress, kneeling down over the body.<\/p>\n

Denise is holding a broken bottle as she stares at the body, and Stacey has blood on her hands.<\/p>\n

It is not yet known who Sharon is getting married to, but she was engaged to Keanu before they split.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere in Walford next week, tensions rise between Phil Mitchell and Kat Slater as she returns from a short break away.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Kat is furious when she finds out that Phil has been keeping Alfie Moon's cancer scare from her.<\/p>\n

Sharon tries to calm the situation down, and as a result, Kat decides to give Phil another chance.<\/p>\n

Phil has been helping Alfie through his cancer scare by going with him for hospital appointments and listening to his worries.<\/p>\n

Alfie was scared to tell anyone what might be wrong with him, but he found the courage to open up to Phil.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
