But after learning of Amy’s hospitalisation, they have come closer together as a ‘family’.
The Square is still reeling from the devastating effects of the ‘club crush’ which has torn the Branning clan apart.
In upcoming EastEnders scenes, Amy comes round, but Jack struggles to tell her the extent of her injuries.
She suffered punctured lungs and broken ribs in the crush and her injuries resulted in a heart attack which put her in intensive care.
However, secrets and lies are set to split the Brannings apart.
Jack’s other daughter Penny Branning (Kitty Castledine), confesses that she blames herself for ‘pulling the alarm’, and causing the crush and Jack expresses his regret and disappointment.
But when Penny was then taken in for questioning, things took a turn for the worst in this family dynamic.
All the while, Denise’s daughter Chelsea Fox, is in fact the true culprit behind the fixing of tickets which caused the club surge.
Viewers will know that she acted in a bid to get back at her step sister Penny and put extra tickets on the website in a bid to ruin the club night, but with little thought of what the consequences could be.
This week, guilt-ridden Chelsea has been covering her tracks and convincing Penny it was a glitch in the system.
But Denise begins to smell a rat when she overhears her own daughter accosting a nurse for an update on the other crush victims.
However, she is soon distracted by Penny and Lauren who arrive as she tries to convince Penny to come clean.
Penny is adamant she is not to blame.
Kim tries to lighten the mood when she senses that Denise is upset, but Denise snaps when Kim starts to discuss the events of Dean’s upcoming trial.
Over the years the likes of EastEnders, Emmerdale and Coronation Street have all tried to try outdo each other with their outlandish plots in a bid to keep us tuning in each week. But here are some of the darkest that had fans in shock…
Later, Denise finds Chelsea in a distraught state and comforts her at No.20.
Chelsea then reveals everything about her involvement in the club crush.
An anxious Chelsea waited to speak to Denise at No.20, but Jack called with an update.
Could this revelation split this blended ‘family’ even further apart?
