Fans of EastEnders are convinced that the secret Ian Beale is so obviously hiding is that his ex, Jane, has returned to Walford.
Recent episodes of the soap have seen Ian acting increasingly shady, and almost certainly hiding something from his family – furtively checking his phone and and making secret calls.
Dodgy Ian told Cindy that he is running for councilor of Walford. However, many fans are convinced that there’s more than just his political aspirations at play. What – or who – is Ian hiding?
EastEnders: What is Ian hiding?
Many are convinced that Ian is covering for the return of his ex-wife… Jane. Is Jane coming back to Walford?
After initially joining the soap in 2004, Jane left in 2017. She was forced out of the Square by a vengeful Max Branning – who tried to kill her by setting fire to the restaurant. Jane left, and has stayed gone ever since… although the character remains a firm fan favourite.
