Viewers of EastEnders have been left divided after Sonia Fowler admitted she still loves her ex-husband Martin Fowler.

Fans of the show know Martin and Sonia have a long history and are parents to Bex Fowler.

Earlier this year Martin left Walford with his current wife Stacey and their children Lily and Hope after Stacey attacked Phil Mitchell.

However, Martin returned when he heard Bex had attempted to take her own life.

Since his return, he has ended his relationship with Stacey, in an attempt to protect her from Phil’s son Ben, who was making threats against her following the attack on his dad.

In Monday’s episode (December 16 2019) Sonia managed to convince Kush, Arthur’s biological dad, to allow Martin to spend time with the little boy.

Arthur is also Stacey’s son, but he stayed behind in Walford with his dad when she and Martin went away.

Later, however, she confessed to Tina that she wanted Martin to kiss her and thinks she’s still in love with him.

Some viewers want to see Martin and Sonia get back together.
