As it gets too much, she’s followed by a mystery man – and you won’t believe who he is! Sonia may just have given the ultimate reason to leave Walford behind for a new start – but is it the right call? And will Bianca go with her?
We’ve also noticed the mystery surrounding Ross and Joel. They’ll be getting their own biographies here soon – as soon as we know more than just their names!


Next week’s spoilers also indicated that things regarding Lily and Avani are about to get much, much worse! They’re both in considerable danger from different avenues this week… Can their parents help before it’s too late?
