The return of Lauren Bolton has stunned viewers, as she was thought to have been murdered. She arrived at the hospital to visit Roy after he collapsed and suffered a heart attack.

However, she came face to face with her attacker Joel at the hospital. The pair had a huge showdown and Lauren revealed she is five months pregnant with Joel’s baby. She then managed to flee, after telling him he would not be involved with their child.

Will Joel manage to track Lauren down?
