This week EastEnders are celebrating their 35th anniversary and despite the impending doom of one of the residents dying, fans were shocked last night [17 February] when Tracey - the legendary barmaid - revealed a sex secret about Phil Mitchell.
Yup.
Tracey, who is played by Jane Slaughter, has been on the show since it first began on 19 February 1985 and although she started on the flower stall she soon went on to work behind The Vic and has been there ever since.
She's an OG resident but is well known for not saying much... until this week when she confessed - while dancing with Mo on the Thames boat - that she slept with Phil back in the day.
After Mo asked, "You and Phil Mitchell?!"
Tracey admitted, "It was years ago. It was just one night. Though saying one night would be a generous description."
Obsessed.
Lots of EastEnders fans rushed to Twitter to discuss their secret night, with one person writing, "Howling at Tracey and Mo gossiping about Trace's one-night stand with Phil! #EastEnders".
Someone else said, "Scream at Tracey reminiscing about her ‘night’ with Phil Mitchell #EastEnders".
A third wrote, "Tracey the dirty little devil #EastEnders".
