EastEnders fans left ‘bawling’ by Amy’s heart-breaking reaction to devastating dumping
THERE was heartbreak in Albert Square last night for Amy Mitchell who was brutally dumped by Denzel Danes.
EastEnders viewers were in tatters when the teen crumbles and appeared ready to self-harm.
The youngster played by Ellie Dadd was seemingly pushed over the edge by a stream of hateful messages she was receiving.
Amy was the target of hate following rumours according to which she slept with Denzel (portrayed by Jaden Ladega), during last night’s instalment of the BBC One soap.
Speaking of which, the lad only made matters worse when he decided to follow his friend Nugget’s advice and called off his relationship with Amy.
The overwhelmed 13-year-old then looked in her mirror and threw her phone through it, shattering the glass.

A heavy mental health storyline was hinted at when it seemed like Amy was ready to self-harm.
Heartbroken viewers swarmed over to Twitter, worried for Amy’s well-being and begging her not to hurt herself.
One of them penned: “Mental health storyline with Amy, I’m balling my eyes out.”
“Awww no poor Amy is self-harming” another commented, “it’s so hard being a teenager and kids can be cruel but the problem is never that deep or nothing your friends or family can’t help with. I wish I had that support when I was young.”

“Poor Amy I thank my lucky stars I was a teenager in the 70s no social media, no mobile phones and no internet I feel sorry for all teenagers in today’s world”, a third added.
Another viewer begged: “No Amy. Please don’t. Turn the phone off. Forget him. It’s not worth it” while another jumped in: “This Amy storyline is going to be so heart-breaking to watch.”
As devastated as they may have been for the teen, multiple viewers praised the long-running drama for the storyline.
“This is why I love EE: completely un-spoilered teen self-harm story – BAM – straight out of nowhere. Poor Amy”, one wrote.

Another chimed in: “Amy’s story is so heart-breaking, sadly so many people are going through this in reality and it needs to be addressed to end stigma.”
“This plot with Amy in EastEnders is honestly difficult to watch to be honest, poor kid”, one last viewer went on.
Amy was later found by Denise Fox (Diane Parish) sat quietly in the lounge as her father Jack Branning (Scott Maslen) remained cold with her.
Earlier in the week, Amy reported her father to the police, compromising his career after he assaulted Denzel.
Jack had been convinced both youngsters had been intimate when he caught them together.
Little does he know that Denzel actually told Amy he’d like for them to let their relationship evolve slowly.
