DENISE Fox has desperately been trying to keep her marriage with Jack Branning afloat.
Yet she’s horrified when he aims to take down a new criminal in EastEnders.
Denise makes a shocking discovery next week
She realises her husband Jack has a new criminal target in mind
She’s scared some of her actions may come to light
Overwhelmed by his home life, and more particularly by his children’s issues, Jack Branning is also trying to make sure he does his job correctly.
The copper portrayed by Scott Maslen has neglected his wife Denise (Diane Parish) as a result which even led her to stray and flirt with Walford gangster Ravi Gulati (Aaron Thiara).
However, after almost sleeping with him, Denise has come to her senses and decided to avoid him at all costs.
Next week on BBC One, the hairdresser has a tense run-in with Ravi at the Minute Mart before returning home to give all her attention to Jack.
Feeling guilty, she tries to seduce him as he works from home… but she’s stopped in her tracks by a shocking discovery.
Denise learns that Jack is investigating Ravi when she finds a picture of the gangster on his laptop.
The worst immediately comes to Denise’s mind as she starts to panic that her actions may be exposed.
As viewers of the London-based program remember, she not only almost spent a night with Ravi but she also kissed him while Jack’s back was turned.
Ravi has been trying to chase Denise but she’s adamant on not letting her feelings get the best of her.
In later scenes, Denise and Jack are shocked to learn that Amy overheard Ravi’s promiscuous behaviour whilst at Nugget’s house.
Jack rages about the example being set to his daughter and heads to have words with Ravi.
Denise quickly interjects and offers to speak to Ravi instead.
Later on, at Walford East, a smug Ravi tells Denise that she has nothing to worry about, leaving her more worried than ever.
Does Ravi have a plan in mind?
After a shocking flashforward episode, EastEnders have theorised Denise could be part of a murder mystery on Christmas 2023.
Ravi is even part of the potential victims that could meet their end during the festive period.
Will Denise lash out?
