EastEnders spoilers follow for Tuesday's episode (6 May), which is available to watch now on streaming service BBC iPlayer and hasn't yet aired on TV.
EastEnders has finally exposed the truth about Martin Fowler's death, after Cindy Beale's surprise return.
Cindy gatecrashed Lauren and Peter's engagement party in Harry's Barn this week, after being away from Walford since February.
The Beales and the Knights were less than pleased to see Cindy in today's episode, after all the hurt she caused last year, and Lauren demanded that she leave immediately.
Peter desperately tried to keep the peace and pulled Cindy aside, where it was revealed to Lauren – and to viewers – that he's been in contact with his mum for a while.

Lauren was devastated by her fiancé’s betrayal, and back at home, she asked Peter to choose between her and Cindy. Meanwhile, Lauren, who is heavily pregnant, continued to experience pain.
With Peter returning to the party alone, Cindy felt frustrated that she had been cut off while the Beales and the Knights continued to live in harmony. So she decided to tell everyone that it was Kathy who attacked her on Christmas Day.
Elaine and George were furious that they had been lied to for months and all hell broke loose, but Cindy got a shock of her own when she realised that Peter and Lauren already knew Kathy was the culprit.
