Max Branning (Jake Wood) will rue the day he made an enemy of Cindy Beale (Michelle Collins) in EastEnders as she successfully stumbled upon the information needed to destroy him.
Walford’s resident lothario has been making enemies for decades due to the countless families he’s torn apart and various affairs he’s conducted behind loved ones’ backs.
The lates in a long line of women he’s wronged is Cindy, who has a proven history of taking revenge on those who attempt to get one over on her – and therefore she wasn’t planning on letting Max away with turning her life upside down.
With Cinders standing in the way of him securing an annulment, Max tasked Oscar (Pierre Counihan-Moullier) with getting her admitting on tape that they never consummated their marriage.
Oscar reluctantly accepted the challenge but his efforts were thwarted when Cindy instead discovered that Max was the one who left Zoe Slater (Michelle Ryan) to die.
With Kat (Jessie Wallace) out for the blood of the man who left her beloved daughter to perish, Cindy now has the leverage she needs to take Max for all that he’s got.
Go get him, Cindy!
