Dean Gaffney was mocked by fans for doing something his on screen alter ego Robbie Jackson was more likely to do when he accidentally gave away his bank details in a social media gaffe.
The 40-year-old EastEnders star posted a picture of his girlfriend Rebekah Ward, 26, planting a kiss on his cheek while out in a nightclub on Instagram – where he was holding his bank card in full view.

Captioning the picture: “Blue steel! She drives me crazy but she is special to me”, the actor was so enamored with his young girlfriend, that he forgot to edit out his Barclaycard and fans were soon mocking him for his mistake.
One follower pointed out that he could see both his bank card number and sort code wrote: “I can read your bank card, mate.”
Another added: “Look at Robbie flexing the Barclays bank card.”
