Dean and Lauren spend the night together

The morning after, Dean is quick to tell an eager Lauren that things between them are just casual, leaving her visibly upset - will Dean change his mind and promise her more?

Dean has been having a tough time since returning to Albert Square recently and is currently struggling to deal with his feelings for Linda Carter, his ‘aunt’, who is actually his sister-in-law.

Matt Di Angelo, who plays Dean, has previously teased fans with details of their affair, warning fans that his character’s feelings aren’t very genuine.

“I don't think Dean cares too much for Lauren,” he admitted. “She's just a distraction and I can imagine he's thinking about Linda the whole time."

Lauren, played by Jacqueline Jossa, hasn’t exactly had an easy time lately either and she’s currently hiding her feelings for Peter Beale, who is in a relationship with Lola.

Elsewhere in Walford, one couple who have been happy lately are Kat and Alfie, who welcomed two new arrivals to the Moon family on Friday 8 August.

Watch ‘EastEnders’ on Monday 18 August to see the events unfold.
