Keanu Taylor (Danny Walters) is on the verge of losing son Albie for good in EastEnders, as ex Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean) plans to take him to Abu Dhabi in the coming weeks.
Unfortunately for Keanu, he has no legal rights to his son as his name is not on Albie’s birth certificate, meaning that fighting Sharon’s decision is going to be a difficult task.
Things got even more complicated in recent scenes when Sharon asked brother Zack Hudson (James Farrar) to be Albie’s legal guardian should anything happen to her.
When Keanu discovered this, he was surprisingly calm, and told Sharon that as long as Albie had someone to look after him he didn’t mind.
However, it soon became clear that he was bluffing when he met with mum Karen (Lorraine Stanley) and detailed his plan to commit a horrifying crime.

He explained Sharon’s decision not to put him on the birth certificate, and decided that if she could take Albie out of the country then so could he.
Karen was horrified by his plan, pointing out that, because he has no legal rights to his son, it would be kidnap.
Despite the serious consequences he would face, Keanu seemed determined to go through with his plan in order to keep his son in his life.

Poor Keanu has had a tough year since being back on the Square.
He was finally introduced to daughter Peggy in the summer, only for her to be taken away again after a matter of days.
When it emerged that Sharon had been the one to help Lisa Fowler (Lucy Benjamin) get Peggy out of the country, her relationship with Keanu fell apart, and things have been difficult between them ever since.
