EastEnders: Pastor Clayton assaulted Yolande

Recently in Walford, Pastor Clayton has been getting close to Yolande and has made advances towards her.

Yolande confronted the Pastor over how uncomfortable his behaviour made her feel but the Pastor reacted to this by removing her from the church food van plans.

After Yolande apologised, the Pastor allowed her to contribute once more but things soon took a turn at the charity fundraiser.

In the kitchen, the Pastor cornered Yolande and sexually assaulted her. Afterwards, Elaine broke down and revealed what the Pastor had done to her to Elaine.

However, she was unable to tell Patrick what had gone on, with Patrick starting to fear that she was unwell.
