Cindy Beale<\/a> (Michelle Collins<\/a>) has turned green with envy in EastEnders \u2013 and seemingly made a new enemy.<\/p>\n The enemy is, of course, Nicola Mitchell<\/a> (Laura Doddington<\/a>), who has shacked up with Cindy\u2019s ex-husband George Knight<\/a> (Colin Salmon<\/a>) over the last week.<\/p>\n A potential new relationship is on the horizon for the former pub landlord in the wake of his separation from his current wife Elaine Peacock<\/a> (Harriet Thorpe<\/a>).<\/p>\n Nicola was holding interviews for a new bar manager<\/a>\u00a0at the nightclub, and in a bid to distract George from the drug dealing at Kojo Asare<\/a>\u2019s (Dayo Koleosho<\/a>) apartment, Harry Mitchell<\/a> (Elijah Holloway<\/a>) convinced his mum to bring him in.<\/p>\n Upon arrival at Harry\u2019s Barn, he discovered that Nic\u2019 was actually searching for a bouncer, something which George wasn\u2019t interested in.<\/p>\n She knew that she had to buy time, and after offering him a drink and having a heart to heart about recent events, seduced him!<\/a><\/p>\n The two agreed to keep things strictly professional, but that clearly hasn\u2019t happened.<\/p>\n In tonight\u2019s episode, he strolled down Turpin Road singing Boney M\u2019s Daddy Cool, apparently a tune he\u2019d sing when he\u2019d done the dirty with Elaine and Cindy.<\/p>\n \t\t \t\t The women, who have formed a surprising new work relationship<\/a>, clocked his humming and unusually cheery persona and made it their mission to work out who he was seeing.<\/p>\n Elaine spoke with him in the pub, giving her blessing for him to move on \u2013 even if it did make her deeply uncomfortable. Cindy then arrived and saw red, noticing George cosying up to Nicola.<\/a><\/p>\n A war of words broke out, and it became clear that Cindy was jealous to see another woman on George\u2019s arm.<\/p>\n Is this his final chance at happiness, or are Cindy and Elaine about to put a stop to that?<\/p>\n What happened between George and Elaine?<\/p>\n The two separated earlier this year, when she believed he\u2019d been unfaithful at Christmas\u00a0with his first wife Sabrina.<\/a>\u00a0His son Junior<\/a> (Micah Balfour<\/a>) dropped the revelation out of the blue, with no real motive to expose his father other than wanting Elaine to know what he\u2019d done.<\/p>\n \t\t \t\t She was enraged to hear that Sabrina had tried to kiss him, and George didn\u2019t exactly make things better when he turned to Cindy for a shoulder to cry on.<\/p>\n Elaine contacted old mate Drew Peacock (Paul Clayton) for a pep talk, and when he told her to take consideration of her own self-worth, she made the brutal decision to\u00a0sleep with a stranger she\u2019d just met moments before.<\/a><\/p>\n Guilt-ridden, she couldn\u2019t keep quiet any longer and confessed all to George. His attempts at making amends and apologising fell flat, as\u00a0she wasn\u2019t willing to take half of the blame.<\/a><\/p>\n In the aftermath, his world has dropped apart.<\/p>\n What\u2019s Cindy\u2019s history with George?<\/p>\n Cindy \u2013 living in witness protection and using the name Rose<\/a> \u2013 met George in Spain and they had daughters Gina<\/a> (Francesca Henry<\/a>) and Anna<\/a> (Molly Rainford<\/a>) together.<\/p>\n She walked out on their plush life to revisit Walford in 2014, where she watched her family from afar, grieving the death of first-born daughter Lucy (Hetti Bywater).<\/a><\/p>\n \t\t \t\t\t\tFollow Metro Soaps on WhatsApp and get all the latest spoilers first!\t\t\t<\/p>\n Want to be the first to hear shocking EastEnders spoilers?

It was then that he moved on with Elaine, before arriving in Albert Square in 2023.<\/p>\n Cindy subsequently returned herself, now being told that there was no threat towards her.<\/p>\n During the last two years she\u2019s been adamant to win back George\u2019s affections, and while the two did kiss, she turned her attention to his son Junior instead.<\/p>\n Despite that, she\u2019s always made it clear that she\u2019d be keen for a reunion.<\/p>\n \t\t\tComments Arrow Arrow![\"Nicola](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/527648-d42b.jpg\")
