EastEnders has teased “life-changing news” for Billy Mitchell in the coming weeks, in new advanced spoilers.

Earlier this year, Billy was stunned when his estranged father Stevie showed up in Walford – but he will soon get another shock when he discovers that his dad has a

secret family.

Last week, it was announced that the soap will introduce three new Mitchell characters later this month.

Stevie’s son Teddy (Roland Manookian) will arrive alongside his sons Harry (Elijah Holloway) and Barney (Lewis Bridgeman), and Stevie will be forced to tell Billy that he has a half-brother.

When the news was revealed, executive producer Chris Clenshaw said that their arrival will be “a seismic shock for Billy and an unwelcome surprise for Phil” and teased that Teddy and his sons will be “thrust into the heart of the drama”.

It hasn’t yet been confirmed when this month Stevie’s family will make their dramatic first appearances, but official teaser spoilers released by the BBC for the last full week in June contain some intriguing new information.
