After battling with his conscience, doctor Ali confessed his crime to his mum in emotional scenes after the crash.
At first she was horrified and insisted he went to the police, before vowing to keep his secret.
However she DID share the shocking news with fiancé Robert Preston.
The Sun Online now reveals that Robert will let it slip to Michelle’s other son, Ryan.
And Ryan – in possibly the snakiest move yet – tells the police about Ali’s crime.
An insider told the newspaper: “When Robert accidentally lets slip to Ryan how Ali killed Ronan in cold blood, it’s not going to end well.
“It’s going to spark a war between Ali and Ryan that could destroy Michelle’s family.”
The insider continued: “Ali blames Ryan for putting him in that position and sees him moving on without a care in the world.
“But when Ryan discovers Ali killed Ronan, he’s so angry. He lashes out in the worst possible way.
“He decides he’s going to shop Ali to the police for murder, no matter the consequences for his family.”
The newspaper also reports that Ali is on a “downward spiral which takes an explosive twist” with Michelle seriously worrying about his mental health.
Will Ali be sent to prison for murder? And will Michelle be forced to chose between her two sons?
