Will David be there to support Bianca when she needs him most? It's safe to say that their father-daughter relationship on EastEnders is far from traditional. David's return to Walford was initially seen as a way for him to help Bianca during a difficult time, but next week, he may end up causing more harm than good with a hurtful plan.
As Bianca continues to struggle with the belief that Reiss Colwell is responsible for his wife Debbie's death, and not her sister Sonia Fowler who is currently in prison, David becomes deeply concerned about her mental well-being. After talking to her and hearing more about her worrying behavior from Kat Slater, he knows he needs to intervene.
But just as he starts to focus on Bianca's needs, a blast from the past throws a curveball his way. David comes face-to-face with his former lover, Cindy Beale, who was believed to have died in prison in 1998. As the rest of Walford reels from her unexpected return from the dead last year, David is left with a flood of questions for Cindy.
Despite this distraction, David and Bianca have an important heart-to-heart about her mental health issues. Although hesitant at first, Bianca agrees to see a doctor after receiving reassurance from her dad that he will support her every step of the way. However, as their relationship deepens, David's own personal issues begin to resurface, causing him to make plans to leave Walford once again.
As the question lingers, will David abandon his daughter in her time of need? Actress Patsy Palmer, who plays Bianca, teases the complexity of their dynamic, saying, "They have so much light and shade in their relationship. One minute, they'll be sharing a funny moment and doing comedy, and the next, they'll be in tears. Their history adds another layer to their relationship and it's a gift for us as actors."
