EASTENDERS FAVOURITES KAT AND ALFIE, PLAYED BY JESSIE WALLACE AND SHANE RITCHIE, ARE HEADING FOR THEIR THIRD WEDDING, BUT WILL THEY END UP MAKING IT DOWN THE AISLE? 20:00, 01 Jun 2025Updated
20:06, 01 Jun 2025 Iconic EastEnders duo, Kat Slater and Alfie Moon, have been seen in some jaw-dropping first-look snaps released by the soap, wearing their wedding outfits. The fan
favourites played by Jessie Wallace and Shane Ritchie are heading for their third marriage after Alfie pops the question in a romantic proposal in next week's episode. The calamitous
couple, who have been married twice before, are hoping this marriage will be built to last. However, a series of dramatic events threatens to derail their happy day in classic Walford style.
Seen with a pensive look on her face in Albert Square, sporting a gorgeous cream silk wedding dress with a matching cape strewn with flowers and a bejewelled headband, Kat looks like
she's got the weight of the world on her shoulders as Alfie reaches out with a reassuring arm. READ MORE: Inside British Soap Awards afterparty - bleary-eyed stars smoking cigarettes
and 'bomb scare' However, in another snap, Mr Moon clambers into a cab as his bride-to-be watches on with a face like thunder as the rest of the Square, including Bobby Brazier,
who plays Kat's nephew, Freddie Slater, cross their arms in annoyance. Kat and Afiie, who have been married twice before, first tied the knot on Christmas Day in 2003. The plucky
publican made his bride's dream of a white wedding come true by hiring a snow machine for the big day. However, marital harmony was short-lived, and they later divorced before deciding
to give their relationship another whirl in 2014 and remarried. Article continues below Later, weighed down by financial struggles and after welcoming twins Bert and Ernie Moon, the couple
hit the jackpot and left Walford in 2016. They subsequently appeared in the Ireland-based spin-off show, Kat and Alfie: Redwater. However, Kat ended things with Alfie off-screen and returned
to Walford in 2018, before Alfie followed her back to Albert Square. Alfie actor Shane recently shared a big story line was in the offing for the Slater family. Speaking exclusively to The
Mirror at The British Soap Awards 2025, the Walford legend revealed there were huge scenes on the way. He promised an explosive new storyline that would top the soap's 40th anniversary.
Not only that, but he revealed the storyline would run for months, continuing into next year. He remained tight-lipped over what and who would be involved, but teased "fireworks".
He hinted it would involve Alfie and Kat, amid reports Kat's daughter Zoe will finally make her return to the show after decades. Michelle Ryan is tipped to reprise her role for the
first time since 2005, so perhaps this is what Shane was referring to. Lifting the lid just a tad on the rumours, Shane revealed new producer Ben Wadey had huge things planned for the show.
The actor told us: "He has told me some things. I said let me sit down. "There's fireworks, there's Kat and Alfie. There is a story that is about to kick in, which will
carry on through to after Christmas. Honestly it's a big story. If you thought the 40th was big wait until you see this story. That's all I'm saying." Article continues
