EastEnders spoilers – Gurlaine Kaur Garcha talks Ash’s change of heart
When asked why do you think it took the news of Jags and Habiba’s pregnancy for the guilt to become too much for Ash, actress Gurlaine Kaur Garcha said: “Ash has previously dealt with falling pregnant herself and not having that child, because of certain reasons, so for her to know that a child is going to be coming into the world – a new member of her family.
“The fact they won’t have their dad around, I think that’s what does it for her.

“It’s not just about her siblings and mother – there’s now an innocent child involved because of their lie.
“Ash is fiercely protective of her family, so as well as feeling protective, she also has the guilt – she’s contributed towards this and she wants to put it right and maybe it’s not too late.”
