The argument soon gathered a crowd including Amelia’s dad, Dan, and Samson’s dad and stepmum Sam and Lydia.

Dan warned Noah to keep away from Amelia, having learnt from Harriet that he has been spending time with Amelia.

However Amelia was forced to admit she’s pregnant. It was also revealed that Samson was the dad, leaving Sam and Lydia gobsmacked.
