Anna Knight (Molly Rainford) and Bobby Beale’s (Clay Milner Russell) romance has been on shaky
ground for a while now, as spark between her and Freddie Slater (Bobby Brazier) has reignited.
And next week, a split looks even more likely when a horrifying event pushes the couple further apart.
Forthcoming scenes will see Anna land in hospital after her drink is spiked during a night out at Peggy’s with Freddie, Felix Baker (Matthew Morrison) and sister Gina Knight (Francesca Henry).
At the time, Bobby is away from the Square, as he accompanies brother Peter (Thomas Law) and step-mum Cindy (Michelle Collins) on a mission to find out what secret dad Ian (Adam Woodyatt) is hiding.
But after he returns to Walford, Bobby is worried about his relationship with Anna.
When he learns of her spiking, his fear are temporarily allayed – but when accidentally puts his foot in it with Anna, she storms off.
Freddie tries to support both Bobby and Anna, but with his feelings for Anna seemingly resurfacing in recent weeks, will he betray his best friend once again?
Whatever happens, what fans already know is that Bobby will soon be leaving the Square, after actor Clay Milner Russel quit the soap after five years in the role.
