Who is Hayley Slater’s baby’s father in EastEnders, how was her pregnancy revealed and when was the baby born?
Stacey and Kat's cousin had a traumatic delivery
HAYLEY Slater burst on to our screens as a mysterious new character in early February 2018.
Here's everything you need to know about Stacey Slater's cousin and when she gave birth...
Who is Hayley Slater’s baby’s father in EastEnders?
Hayley revealed her shock pregnancy when she was spotted cradling her burgeoning baby bump during the Royal Wedding festivities in the Queen Vic.
Living up to the character's initial mystery, she stayed tight-lipped on who the father was.
Fans thought that Martin Fowler was the father at first when she appeared to leave a late-night voicemail for him.
But then it was revealed that in fact Alfie Moon is the father after his shock-comeback to Albert Square.
Hayley went to meet Alfie in a dodgy hotel room, told him she was pregnant and tried to persuade him to run away with her back to Spain and raise all the Moon offspring together.
Sadly for Hayley though, Alfie's heart still belongs to Kat - and he went to get her some money to pay for a termination.
She couldn't go through with it though, and decided to have the baby alone.
How was Hayley Slater's pregnancy revealed?
Hayley revealed she's pregnant on May 21, 2018.
She had a furious row with Kat and co in the pub when she refused to have a drink to mark the Royal Wedding and viewers quickly found out why.
In the public loo, Hayley lifted up her top and pulled off the bandages which had been concealing her bump.
Another woman in the loo spotted her bump and asked: "Food baby?"
Hayley replied: "No, a real one," before revealing she's due in October.
She kept the pregnancy a secret from the rest of the Slaters before eventually revealing the truth to Jean after being involved in a motorbike accident.

When was Hayley Slater's baby born?
Hayley's baby was born on October 29, 2018.
But not everything went to plan and Hayley risked losing her baby when she was forced to give birth alone in a minicab.
The character - played by Katie Jarvis – was shocked when her waters suddenly broke and she jumped into the cab to drive herself to hospital.
But as the contractions got worse, Hayley found herself struggling to drive and things took another bad turn when the cab broke down.
Viewers were left baffled as to why she didn't call an ambulance and gave birth alone in a squat.
