WITH his children facing hardship in recent months, Jack Branning has spiralled and neglected his marriage.

But he makes another huge mistake in an attempt to bring harmony back into his home next week in EastEnders.

Denise and Jack’s marriage is on the rocks

Jack tries to make things better

But he soon lashes out at another resident in Walford East

Denise Fox (played by Diane Parish) is growing increasingly frustrated with the copper and feels out of place.

Jack (Scott Maslen) has become aware his marriage with the hair salon owner is being thrown on the rocks but is intent on coming through for his family.

In scenes due to air on BBC One next week, he arranges a family lunch at Walford East.

The meal is off to a rocky start when Jack’s son invites his mother, Sam Mitchell (Kim Medcalf) but soon enough, the family start to enjoy each other’s company, putting all their differences aside.

Unfortunately, things still take a turn – Jack becomes incensed when he learns that Nugget Gulati is responsible for the bullying Ricky and Lily have faced at school.

A blazing row breaks out between him and Nugget’s father, Ravi Gulati (Aaron Thiara).

The argument sadly continues upon the family’s return to No.27 as Jack projects his anger on to Denise.

Fed up with his behaviour, she storms out and heads back to Walford East to apologise to Ravi.

Sparks fly between the two of them… but will they act on them again?

In later scenes, Jack makes his relationship woes worse when he forgets all about Valentine’s Day.

Spotting her father’s mishap, Amy Mitchell (Ellie Dadd) springs into action and arranges a romantic evening for the couple.

Meanwhile, Ravi is unable to forget the night before and interrupts Denise whilst she’s getting ready at No.27 to tell her about his growing desire for her.

But she doesn’t give in and tries hard to fight agaisnt her lust.

Yet Denise could come to regret her decision when she overhears Jack telling Sam that his daughter Amy is responsible for arranging their Valentine’s Day date, not him.

Will Denise run to Ravi as a result?

Can she ever fix her marriage with Jack?

EastEnders airs from Monday to Thursday on BBC One.
