EastEnders releases new trailer for MASSIVE week of drama

EastEnders have released a brand new trailer signalling a week of huge drama for one illicit couple.

The conceptual video, set in the pouring rain, hints at Michelle Fowler’s affair with underage student Preston Cooper being EXPOSED.

Michelle first returned to the Square after fleeing the States having lost everything as a result of her affair with the teen.

As she tried to settle into life back in Walford, she struggled to find work and is financially facing ruin.

But then Preston turned up on Valentine’s Day and made everything better. Well, briefly, anyway!

Because then Michelle decided they couldn’t be together after all. He was too young and in the cold light of Walford instead of the sunny USA, it was all just a bit wrong.

She might have had more luck convincing him it was over if she didn’t keep falling into bed with him though!

Currently, he’s gone to visit a friend of a friend in Manchester, but if this trailer’s anything to go by, it won’t be long before he’s dashing back to claim his woman.

As most of the Square watches on, Carmel, Denise and Kush included, a drenched Preston runs through the market to a waiting Michelle.

‘Chelle’s brother, Martin Fowler, drops the food he’s eating when he sees them together, and his daughter, Michelle’s niece, Bex Fowler is crushed when she sees her aunt snogging the object of her affections.

Bex found herself the unfortunate choice when Preston wanted to sleep with another girl to make Michelle jealous.

Her actions have led to even more bullying thanks to Michelle outing what she’d done to Louise. Nice one, Michelle.

And now Michelle’s own dirty little secret looks like it’s well and truly out. How will the residents of Walford react? And can Bex ever forgive her?

Further details, including when this might air, are being kept closely under wraps, but we think the couple are in for a shock if they reckon it’s going to be plain sailing now they’re out in the open.
