Now sources have revealed that Max and Shona’s relationship has therefore been a blow to pregnant Roisin.

A source told The Sun: “It has been dreadful for Roisin, she feels humiliated and disrespected.

“She never expected Max to move on so quickly. She believed they were on a break, taking time out of their relationship to sort out their differences.

The source added: “And during this time she didn’t think he was involved with anyone else. She’s always been such a private person and now feels like she’s at the centre of a real-life EastEnders plot.”
