EastEnders Jane Beale's reason for surprise 'return' - and it's not looking good for Cindy
The motive behind the return of EastEnders' icon Jane Beale has been 'unveiled', and it spells trouble for Cindy Beale.
Jane, portrayed by Laurie Brett, was a beloved character on the BBC One soap, first appearing in 2004. As Ian Beale's (Adam Woodyatt) wife, Jane was part of numerous significant Walford events.
Jane featured intermittently on the soap for 13 years, but bid farewell to Albert Square in 2017.
However, seven years after her last appearance, Jane made a surprising return to the soap this week. As viewers will remember, Ian has been concealing a massive secret from his partner Cindy Beale (Michelle Collins).

Suspecting an affair, Cindy discovered an address for a property in the Cotswolds preloaded into Ian's sat-nav during Monday's episode (July 15), reports the Daily Star.
