Cindy Beale issues ultimatum to Lauren Branning as she makes horrifying discovery in EastEnders

CINDY Beale will issue an ultimatum to Lauren Branning as she’s set to make a horrifying discovery in EastEnders.

The Beale family have been embroiled with secrets as Cindy (Michelle Collins) carries on her affair with Junior (Micah Balfour) on the BBC One soap.

She offered Lauren (Jacqueline Jossa) some illegal pills to keep her quiet, but things are set to take a drastic turn.

Lauren is struggling with her withdrawal symptoms but refuses Cindy’s offer of more p.i.l.l.s in EastEnders.

When her symptoms worsen, an oblivious Peter (Thomas Law) will rush her to the hospital as she Lauren panics.

Although she fears that she’s hurt the baby, a medical scan from the doctors will confirm that the expectant child is okay.

Despite offering her pills, Cindy will be left horrified as she realises that Lauren is using d.r.u.g.s whilst she is pregnant.

She will then corner Lauren away from her husband Ian (Adam Woodyatt) and her son Peter.

In true Cindy fashion, she is set to have a vicious showdown with Lauren.

After the pair argue out their feelings, Cindy will threaten her with a disastrous ultimatum.

Either Lauren tells Peter the truth about her pain and addiction, or she will tell him everything.

Later, Cindy is set to pile even more pressure on Lauren whilst Peter remains oblivious to what’s really going on.

He is set to confide in his dad as he’s worried about Lauren’s mood swings, thinking it’s just the hormones.

Ian will suggest to cheer her up by popping the question and declaring his love in a big way.

He thinks it will show Lauren that he wants to stick around and co-parent their child properly this time around.

What will Lauren Do? Will Peter find out the truth?

EastEnders continues on BBC One and is available to catch up on BBC iPlayer.
