The secret is OUT

It might be Halloween but expect fireworks on Albert Square when Lauren Branning finally discovers the truth about her sister, Abi, and her dead fiance, Steven Beale.

As we know, Abi and Steven were having a secret relationship behind Lauren’s back and Abi is currently pregnant with Steven’s baby.

Lauren has remained oblivious, but starts to get suspicious when she walks in on Abi wearing her wedding dress! Yeah, that’s just weird.

Next week starts off badly for Abi when she tries to cover being fired from her job at the vet’s by saying she’s going full-time at The Queen Vic.

Unfortunately for Abi, the Carters are having to tighten the old purse strings after being slapped with a £60k bill from Grafton Hill for repairs on the pub and they let her go.

Worried about how she’ll cope financially, Abi consoles herself by trying on Lauren’s dress again, on the day her sister was due to marry Steven.

But when a puzzled Lauren catches her, Abi isn’t able to keep her secret any longer and blurts out that she was in love with Steven.

Lauren struggles to accept what she’s hearing and is even more shocked when she discovers that Abi has kept hold of Steven’s ashes.

Not sure what it is about the Branning sisters having fights at Halloween (remember when Abi tried to drown Lauren in the apple bobbing bowl?) but they’re at it again this year.

They do manage to call a truce this time though. Until later in the week when Abi drops one last bombshell on her sister  – she’s pregnant with Steven’s baby.

The baby news leaves Lauren furious all over again.
