But all of this remains unknown to Martin’s other ex-wife, Ruby Allen (Louisa Lytton)…
As the day of Martin’s funeral arrives, guilty Stacey continues to unravel and hits the bottle again.
Stacey and Martin’s teenage daughter, Lily (Lillia Turner), is disgusted by her mum’s state.
And Stacey confides in Martin’s other ex-wife, Sonia Jackson (Natalie Cassidy), that she can’t face going to the funeral!
While the rest of Martin’s family and friends gather together for his funeral, will Stacey really miss the opportunity to say a final goodbye to him?
There’s been tension between Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean) and her half-sister, Vicky Fowler (Alice Haig), since her return to Albert Square.
However, the siblings attempt to put their differences aside as they get ready for Martin’s funeral.
Vicky’s new fella, Ross (Alex Walkinshaw), is worried about her and wants to attend the funeral for emotional support.
However, Ross is warned to back-off by Sharon after the previous angry confrontation with Alfie Moon (Shane Richie) and his partner, Kat Slater (Jessie Wallace)…
