Hunter found the passports and money Mel put away and left the house despite his mum telling him not to. He made amends with Louise Mitchell and even took his ex out shopping with the money he found.
But Mel was not happy when she found him in the E20 with Louise.
She invited them home for dinner, but when it was announced on the radio that a body had been found in the woods, Mel began to panic…
In tonight’s episode the police come calling and pull Mel in for questioning…
Viewers have already said they are “getting bored” of the storyline and are calling for it to end.

Can’t wait to see the back of Hunter. Hopefully we get more strong character Mel Owen stories when he’s gone. Get the club back and move on from Ray and Hunter. #EastEnders

Mel had been plotting Ray’s downfall for weeks before their wedding after discovering he was married to not one but TWO other women.
She enlisted the help from his other wives Maddie and Nicola and Ray was arrested at their wedding for bigamy.
