EastEnders is set to reveal a shocking secret about Gina Knight next week, as she faces suspicion about Cindy Beale’s attack.
It is still unknown who hit Cindy with a shovel on Christmas Day, and she has recently received another sinister threat from someone who wants her dead.
In Monday’s episode, Ian decided to let Cindy stay with him while she feels unsafe. But it seems that he might have an ulterior motive, and later this week the Knights begin to question his intentions.
But Elaine and George then make a big discovery in the barrel store, which leads them to start questioning whether Anna and Gina are hiding secrets of their own.
Anna also spots Gina having a covert chat with Harry, and in scenes that will air next week, she grows more suspicious of her sister when she finds them having another secret conversation.
Elsewhere, Junior is having a difficult time, as he finds out that Monique is cutting off his access to his son Xavier because of his involvement in an attempted murder case.
Tensions continue to rise within the family, and a situation emerges in The Vic. Things take a dramatic turn when Junior exposes a shocking secret about Gina to the family.
As a result of Junior’s revelation, suspicion begins to fall on Gina, and George steps in to try to defend his daughter. But he is unable to stop the accusations, and Gina is forced to explain herself to everyone.
Gina looks set to face serious consequences in the light of this secret being revealed, as Ian later tells Elaine that he intends to phone the police and report her.
Meanwhile, Anna has grown closer to Freddie in recent months, since a kiss between them last year led to the breakdown of Anna and Bobby’s relationship and Bobby’s exit from Walford.
Anna was reluctant to take things further with Freddie at Christmas, but next week he supports her through the drama with her family and the pair finally give into their feelings for one another.
As the week continues, Ian tries to push Cindy to go to the police about the new information, but she chooses to handle the situation in her own way.
What is Gina hiding, and could she be responsible for her mum’s attack?
