This article contains spoilers for Wednesday’s (June 5) EastEnders, which has not yet aired on TV but is available to watch now on BBC iPlayer.
Cindy Beale’s (Michelle Collins) hypocrisy was out in force in recent EastEnders scenes, when she made a huge discovery about Junior Knight (Micah Balfour).
Cindy and Junior spent the night together in a recent shock twist, amid Cindy’s battle to win back ex-husband George Knight (Colin Salmon), who, it should be noted, is Junior’s dad.
George and Cindy have been spending a lot of time together recently, following daughter Anna’s (Molly Rainford) ordeal at the hands of a mugger.
When Cindy finally outright admitted her feelings for George and begged him to be with her again, he knocked her back, insisting that Elaine Peacock (Harriet Thorpe) was the woman for him.
Following the knockback, Cindy ended up getting very, very close to Junior, and their activities kept them occupied until the early hours of the morning.
The next day, their partners were eager to know where they had been all night, and both Cindy and Junior were quick to cover.
It didn’t take the pair long to organise a secret meeting, where Cindy made it clear that she felt terrible about what had happened, and insisted it was a mistake.
Junior, on the other hand, didn’t seem at all bothered about what this would do to his family, which made Cindy question if he’d done it before.
It wasn’t long before she got the answer, when she made a dig at Junior for helping a drunk Bianca Jackson (Patsy Palmer), asking if he was lining up ‘his next conquest’.
Junior revealed that the two of them had agreed it was a one time only kind of thing, leaving Cindy appalled.
Viewers will remember that Junior slept with Bianca almost as soon as he’d arrived on the Square, before returning to his wife and son.
As Junior bragged about it to Cindy, she made her disgust clear, labelling him a ‘dirty, lying cheat’ – a bit rich, considering her cheating history!
In true Cindy style, she wasn’t very subtle about it, and George was quick to question her about it. Will she expose Junior’s disloyalty?
