EastEnders is set for explosive scenes next week when Junior Knight and Cindy Beale could find their affair ‘rumbled’ after a big mistake
EastEnders’ Junior Knight and Cindy Beale could find their affair ‘rumbled’ after a big mistake next week.
Soap fans will recall that Junior and Cindy started a shock affair last month. Cindy was previously in a relationship with Junior’s dad George Knight years ago and she is now with ex-husband Ian Beale while having her shock affair.
In spoilers for next week, Peter Beale is annoyed that Bobby Beale was promoted to manager at Beale’s Eels, not him and Lauren Branning reasons that there must be another reason Cindy did this as she wouldn’t do Bobby a favour without motive. Thinking of possible scenarios, Peter wrongly assumes it’s down to their family dramas.
It’s not long until Junior overhears Peter, Lauren and Gina speculating about Cindy to which he offers Peter a job on his new contract to keep him out of their way. However, Cindy is incensed to discover Peter is going to work for Junior and offers him the manager’s job at Beale’s Eels, ready to demote Bobby. Yet Cindy’s plan backfires and instead she orders Junior not to hire Peter but he refuses to rescind his job offer.

Meanwhile, Lauren is left suspicious and she quizzes Cindy on why she’s so determined to stop Peter working with Junior. Desperate to cover her tracks, Cindy tells a lie to discredit Junior and keep her affair secret safe.
Later in the week, Junior tempts Cindy to a late-night glass of wine at his place to which she gets all glammed up and makes her excuses to head over there. However, in the meantime, Gina arrives at Junior’s door and asks to move in. Junior is thrown by the request and is panicking that Cindy will turn up so upsets Gina by rejecting her in order to get her away quick. Will this decision lead to consequences and could Lauren rumble their affair?
It comes as viewers have been quick to slam Junior and Cindy’s affair on the hit BBC One soap. Taking to Twitter, now X, one person said: “Not a massive Ian fan by any stretch of the imagination but what Cindy’s doing on him behind his back with Junior is just nasty… #eastenders” while a different account wrote: “I am so bored of cindy and junior man.. especially with how much cindy accused ian of having an affair when he was going to see jane.. #EastEnders.”
