During last night’s episode of EastEnders (Tuesday, April 9), George’s son was mentioned whilst George was having a conversation with Eddie.
George had accused Eddie of being a bad father before Eddie brought up George’s abandoning of his own son.
EastEnders fans now can’t believe that George has a son – they weren’t aware of this information before.
EastEnders: George has a son
Last night in Walford, Eddie confronted George in the Boxing Den in a bid to get him to defend him in court.
George was livid and explained that Eddie was no father to him. Eddie though suggested that George was just as bad as he was.
Eddie had stood by George when he was young but George had abandoned his own son.
He then suggested that he was the one running from his problems, not the other way round.
George held his hands up to his own mistakes but made it clear that he wanted nothing to do with Eddie. He wouldn’t support him in court.
