Ian Beale makes heartbreaking discovery about Cindy in EastEnders

IAN Beale makes a heartbreaking discovery about partner Cindy in EastEnders.

Viewers of the BBC soap were left stunned last year when it was revealed the former couple had reunited while abroad.

The pair have quite the history, having had twins Lucy and Peter together before Cindy tried to have Ian killed by a hitman so she could claim custody of their children.

But somehow, they had managed to put their past behind them and rekindle their romance, but a further curveball came when they returned to Walford and discovered her former husband George Knight was living their with her daughters, Anna and Gina.

Cindy and Ian decided to stay so she could try and make amends with her estranged children, but there was clearly still unfinished business between her and George too.

George has confided in Cindy on a number of occasions recently after discovering the truth about his birth parents and his heritage, rather than speaking to his partner Elaine Peacock.

During one heart-to-heart, Cindy and George shared a kiss, and a recent episode saw Elaine find out about it.

The Queen Vic landlady was heartbroken and kicked George out, but as yet, has remained quiet when it comes to telling Ian what Cindy has done.

However, in upcoming EastEnders scenes, Elaine finally tells him about the kiss after becoming annoyed by Cindy and George's latest antics.

How will Ian react? And will he tell Cindy what he knows?

Meanwhile, George's son Junior - who recently arrived in Walford - tries to make peace between Cindy, Anna and Gina by getting them all to meet him at Peggy's.

But Anna and Gina struggle to forgive Cindy for causing chaos between George and Elaine.

Will the Knight family be able to resolve their differences?

It isn't just her children with George that Cindy has problems with in the upcoming episodes.

At the Beale's, Cindy is not impressed to see Lauren Branning there and upsets son Peter by being hostile and rude to her.

He threatens to move out if she can't be civil to the mother of his child.

EastEnders airs on BBC One and is available on BBC iPlayer.
