JACK Branning and Denise Fox’s marriage hangs in the balance as the pair try to put their differences aside.
However, in upcoming EastEnders scenes, the hairdresser is at her wit’s end with her husband and furious row ensues.
Denise Fox is under pressure from her husband Jack Branning
She erupts with frustration
It all begins with her sister Kim Fox
Denise Fox (portrayed by Diane Parish) has a lot of making up to do after she admitted to cheating on Jack (Scott Maslen) with Ravi Gulati.
Regular BBC One viewers will remember that Denise kissed Ravi before he enticed her into spending a night with him.
She came to her senses at the last minute and when the thug began to blackmail her, using her own daughter Chelsea in the process, Denise decided to come clean.
All hell broke loose and it seemed like the couple wouldn’t be going their separate ways but Denise and Jack eventually agreed to give themselves a fighting chance and work on their issues together.
But in scenes airing next week, Denise is stressed as she tries to juggle her family commitments under the pressure of Jack.
After a run in at the salon with her sister Kim (Tameka Empson) when Denise takes Pearl for lunch, Denise realises that Kim is dealing with trauma from the crash.
While Denise encountered marital issues, Kim received a new car after an awards ceremony and celebrated her big win with Denzel Danes.
But when she decided to drive him around the Square to get desert, a text that eventually helped uncover Denise’s fling with Ravi distracted her and she crashed her brand new vehicle in the Argee Bhajee.
Kim has struggled with panic attacks – but can she keep things under control?
Later at No.18 Denise feels guilty when Kim opens up about her struggles, but Howie Danes (Delroy Atkinson) implores her to stop blaming herself for everything that has happened.
Back at home, tensions reach a boiling point as Jack rows with Denise for being late home but she finally snaps and tells him she won’t apologise for not being perfect.Â
Is it too late for the couple to fix things?
Has Denise reached a breaking point?
EastEnders airs from Monday to Thursday at 7.30pm on BBC One.
