The newest member of the Slater clan returns to Walford next week – and will see Kat for the first time in the Square.
But if Hayley (Katie Jarvis) was hoping for a warm hug from her long-lost, thought-dead, family member, she’ll be sorely mistaken.
Instead, she’ll get manhandled and told to leave Albert Square for good!
Yep, sounds like Kat!
When Kat (Jessie Wallace) sees the young Slater flirting with Stacey Fowler’s estranged husband Martin, she drags her off.

A furious Kat grabs Hayley and forces her into the café where she tells her in no uncertain terms that she’s to leave Walford for good.
But Hayley has the Slater fire within her – by that we mean she’s stubborn, fiery and not too willing to be told what to do…
She ain’t going nowhere!
But why is Kat so keen to get rid of Hayley? Isn’t she always going on about family sticking together?
Stacey isn’t happy to see Hayley is back in town, either, especially when Big Mo asks Hayley to help her with her latest money making scheme.

Hayley appeared in the soap earlier this year and got fans speculating about her identity as she followed Martin.
It was later revealed that the newbie was a Slater and Stacey’s cousin.
And she’s got a sweet side too – next week she steps in to help Ted after he’s mugged in the lead up to Joyce’s funeral.
