Romance exposed
EastEnders' Lola and Jay will have their budding romance exposed next week, as the couple look to give their relationship another try.
The lovebirds' secret will be discovered by Lexi, the young daughter of Lola, and she is not impressed at all.
Speaking on the storyline, actress Danielle Harold said: “When Lola first gets back together with Jay, obviously they’ve been through a lot of ups and downs over the years, so she just wants to make sure they’re ok before they tell Lexi and everyone else.
“She wants to see how it goes for them before everyone knows this time. But Lexi does get wind of it and finds out Lola has lied to her and doesn’t take that well at all.”
This new romance will soon be devastated by the shock discovery that Lola has a brain tumour, a revelation that causes their plans to come crashing down in the hit soap.
