The hair salon owner has to decide whether she will go along with Phil Mitchell’s (Steve McFadden) bombshell offer over baby Raymond.
Ellie demanded £150,000 from Phil if he wants custody of the toddler.
Phil’s son Ben convinced his son to go through the courts and secure the custody of the toddler in the right way.
Warning Ellie that she now has a “war” on her hands, but things hit a stumbling block when he got his lawyer Ritchie involved, who said he would never be able to win a court due to his criminal record.
However, with Denise on his side, who gave birth to Raymond and who does not possess a criminal rap sheet, Phil chances increase exponentially.
Holding crunch talks with Denise, Albert Square’s resident hardman offered to be a silent partner throughout the court case and agreed to pay all the legal fees if she agreed to take on Ellie.
Should they win, Phil offered to let Denise handle Raymond’s upbringing, as long as he can play a role in his life.
Denise and boyfriend Jack, who is very suspicious about Phil, will debate weather they are able to trust him. What will Denise decide?
