AN EastEnders favourite has been kicked out in a fiery row after his ‘cheating’ was exposed.
The BBC soap is no stranger to showing dramatic love lives in Albert Square.
George Knight (Colin Salmon) faced the wrath of wife Elaine (Harriet Thorpe) after a secret came to light.
Up until now, Elaine believed George had been at a match on Christmas Day – which explained blood being on him.
(Micah Balfour) returned to Walford and the truth was revealed.
The pub landlord had actually visited Junior’s mother Sabrina – and kept it from Elaine.
He’d hoped to uncover the reasons behind Junior’s behaviour – such as (Michelle Collins).
It particularly stung for Elaine, having gotten past George hiding that he was helping Cindy with new venture The Albert.
Behind closed doors, he tried to explain himself – but Elaine wasn’t having any of it.
“You expect me to believe she just threw herself at you?”; Elaine said, before adding: “You must think I came down in the last rainfall.”;
George insisted he’d only visited to talk, but Sabrina misread the situation and tried to kiss him.
He claimed the bleeding came when he pulled away and Sabrina slapped him – catching his nose.
Elaine was furious at George not only for lying, but also roping Gina (Francesca Henry) and Kojo (Dayo Koleosho).
George reiterated that he loved Elaine, but she said: “But you don’t trust me.
“Because if you trusted me, you would’ve come home that night and told me everything. You would’ve trusted that I would’ve believed you.
“You would’ve trusted that I’d have been by your side – like I have every single time.”;
Elaine ultimately asked George to leave – saying she didn’t think he loved her enough.
When he continued to try and smooth things over, Elaine threw a glass at the wall and screamed: “Get out!”;
After a pep talk from Linda (Kellie Bright) and Johnny (Charlie Suff), Elaine went to find George – only to be left heartbroken by seeing him comforting an upset Cindy.
EastEnders airs on BBC One and iPlayer.
