EastEnders will air another twist in the story between Denise Fox and Ravi Gulati as her daughter Chelsea is thrown in the mix.

Denise (Diane Parish) and Ravi (Aaron Thiara) have been getting a little too cosy, despite her assurances that she's happy with her husband Jack Branning (Scott Maslen).

In new scenes airing next week, Denise is determined to put an end to Ravi's relentless flirting. The two have a chat, with Denise saying she's secure in her marriage. Ravi, however, doesn't believe her and drowns his sorrows at Peggy's later on.
