EastEnders airs the moment Gina Knight and Dean Wick's secret romance is rumbled next week on the BBC soap.
The Knights and Linda Carter find out the pair have been seeing each other, despite rapist Dean's history with Linda. It's clear Gina backs Dean and believes him over Linda in a cruel twist, leading to a family row.
The pair have grown closer recently with Gina backing Dean, despite Walford residents knowing he raped Linda in 2014. He also attempted to rape girlfriend Roxy Mitchell after this, before he left the show in 2016.
After his return late last year, he's made an enemy of pretty much everyone except for Gina it seems, who betrays her own family. In spoilers for next week's episodes, it's revealed the pair are in a secret relationship with them shown kissing out of sight.
As Gina refuses to go public with their romance though, Dean has enough and declares his love for her in The Vic in front of a horrified Linda and the Knights. It leads to an almighty row with Gina storming out, not seeking their approval.
