Sonia couldn't contain her joy as she basked in the warm glow of her smile. However, her happiness would soon be short-lived as Killer Reiss Colwell's deceitful web continued to expand in EastEnders. The upcoming episodes of the beloved BBC soap promise to be filled with drama, as the unsuspecting Sonia is rocked by shocking news about her fiancé's financial troubles.
Everyone knows that Reiss is drowning in debt and has even managed to deceive Sharon Mitchell and her business partner, Phil Mitchell, with his fake investment scheme. As Phil's suspicions grew, he began making aggressive demands for his money to be returned by a certain deadline. The pressure is mounting for Reiss, who is a bundle of nerves as the fateful day approaches. Desperate to escape the looming deadline, Reiss tries to convince Sonia to take a day trip with him, but she refuses.
Later on, Phil shows up at their doorstep, furious and demanding his money back. This forces Reiss to come clean to Sonia and reveal the truth about the deadline. Thankfully, Sharon and Teddy Mitchell step in to calm the situation, and Sonia is able to buy them some time by pleading with Sharon. However, things take an unexpected turn when Teddy decides to take on the debt himself, leaving Reiss both shocked and hopeful that the solution is not too good to be true. In an attempt to protect Sonia from the harsh reality, Reiss chooses to keep her in the dark about Teddy's involvement.
Amidst all the chaos, Sonia is also battling her own worries about her eight-week viability scan. However, her concerns are amplified when Sharon reveals that Teddy has taken on the debt. Feeling betrayed and kept in the dark once again, Sonia confronts Reiss at the scan and expresses her concerns about making deals with someone they barely know. Actress Natalie Cassidy, who plays Sonia, shares that it is a major disappointment for her character to learn about such important matters from someone else rather than her own fiancé. She also adds that if it weren't for their IVF journey, Sonia would have most likely ended things with Reiss due to his constant lies.
As if their problems weren't already deep enough, things take a sinister turn when the police show up at The Vic looking for Sonia and Reiss. It seems that Reiss's past actions have finally caught up with him, with the truth about his wife's death looming over them. With Reiss having suffocated his comatose wife Debbie in a desperate attempt to fix his financial troubles, it's only a matter of time before the truth comes out.
