EastEnders: Debbie’s mum confronts Reiss
Debbie’s mum Brenda hasn’t hidden her dislike for Reiss since arriving in Walford with her husband Hugh.
She seemed unconvinced that Debbie simply passed away suddenly, leading her to quiz Reiss. Brenda and Hugh then found out about Sonia’s relationship with Reiss, adding further tension between them all.
Debbie’s grieving parents joined Sonia and Reiss back at Albert Square but things soon went from bad to worse. The couple found out that Reiss had used Debbie’s money to fund the IVF. Hugh and Brenda revealed they’d paid hundreds into the care fund each month, meaning Reiss had stolen from them.
Later on, Brenda had a private talk with Reiss and warned him that it was only a matter of time before all of his skeletons were unearthed.
Does Brenda known more about Reiss than she’s letting on?
