Jay Brown fights for his life after horror accident in EastEnders | The Sun

GRIEF-STRICKEN, Jay Brown has been on a downward spiral since his wife Lola Pearce passed away.

The EastEnders mechanic is left in a coma next week after a horrific car crash, but are his days in Albert Square numbered?



BBC One viewers were left in floods of tears when the broadcaster aired Lola Pearce's final scenes in late May, 2023.

The hairstylist drew her last breath with her daughter Lexi (played by Isabella Brown) and her husband Jay (Jamie Borthwick) by her side, after battling a terminal brain tumour.

Since then, Lola's family have been trying to get their lives back on track but Jay has been having a hard time as he remains overwhelmed with grief.

This led him straight to a spiral of drug abuse as he met Lola-lookalike Nadine Keller who helped him score ketamine.

However, Lexi is determined to be there for Jay and insists that Ben let her go to the hospital – will she regret it?

At Jay’s hospital bedside, later on, Ben tries to make sense of what happened.

However, during a chat with Metro.co.uk, Jamie Borthwick revealed another character could be the shoulder Jay needs to lean on.

"Billy (Mitchell) is someone he does look up to and is someone he feels could help him", the soap star said.

"So, as much as he doesn’t want to talk about it, at least it’s to Billy because he can understand because he’s had his own troubles and dramas in the past."

When speaking about Jay's future in the Square, Jamie added: "Jay needs to get away from Walford because being around there is just causing nothing but carnage."
