Denise Fox (Diane Parish) has been keeping a big secret in EastEnders, but it is all set to come out in dramatic fashion.

Viewers have spent weeks wondering when Denise’s affair with Ravi Gulati (Aaron Thiara) will finally be exposed, and who by.

With Callum Highway (Tony Clay) having caught onto their dirty little secret, and Ravi threatening to tell all if Denise doesn’t play ball, it may come as a surprise to some that it is Denise herself who ends up confessing the truth.

Ravi and Denise had a brief fling after she finally succumbed to his charms on Valentine’s Day this year.

However, her conscience soon got the better of her, and after realising that her heart belonged to husband Jack Branning (Scott Maslen), she called things off.

Unfortunately, by then the damage had already been done.

With Callum searching through CCTV images of Ravi as part of Jack’s investigation into Ravi’s involvement in organised crime, it didn’t take long for him to stumble across footage of the pair together.

After catching them together in person, he warned Denise to steer clear of the bad boy.

For some reason, Denise decided to inform Ravi of the investigation, leaving her completely vulnerable to what he decided to do next.

He warned her that if she couldn’t gather all the information that the police had on him, then he would tell all.

Having now also seduced daughter Chelsea (Zaraah Abrahams) in order to further blackmail Denise, he is determined to get what he wants.

If Denise didn’t already regret getting involved with the troublemaker, she soon will do, when Kim Fox (Tameka Empson) ends up in a deadly car crash.

Denise is absolutely horrified to learn that a text from Ravi to her phone was what caused the crash, and in her guilt decides to spill all to her sister.
