Alfie Moon (Shane Richie) is set to find a new supporter in his cancer fight, and EastEnders viewers may be surprised to learn that it won\u2019t be Kat Slater (Jessie Wallace).<\/p>\n
In recent scenes, Kat learnt the truth about Alfie\u2019s prostate cancer scare, and rushed to the hospital to be with him as he got his results.<\/p>\n
After seeing how upset she was, Alfie told Kat that he had got the all clear, something which will prove to have been a lie in upcoming episodes.<\/p>\n
Having learnt about Phil Mitchell\u2019s (Steve McFadden) passionate moment with Emma Harding (Patsy Kensit) ahead of his wedding to Kat, Alfie head\u2019s to Peggy\u2019s to have it out with him.<\/p>\n

Once the pair are alone, Alfie throws a punch, and as they battle it out, it soon becomes clear that Phil\u2019s infidelity isn\u2019t the only thing Alfie is struggling with.<\/p>\n
Soon, Alfie reveals that he had lied about the results, and emotionally tells Phil that he does have prostate cancer.<\/p>\n
Phil is stunned as Alfie explains that he has to have a prostatectomy, leaving Phil and Alfie to head their separate ways alone, with Phil off to the registry office and Alfie getting a cab to the hospital.<\/p>\n
However, Alfie won\u2019t be alone for long, as soon he will get support from best friend Linda Carter (Kellie Bright).<\/p>\n
When Linda learns from Mitch Baker (Roger Griffiths) that Alfie had gone to the hospital, she puts two and two together and heads over to be there for him.<\/p>\n
What will Alfie make of Linda\u2019s support in this difficult time?<\/p>\n
