Despite their romps, Stacey still married Bradley, but their deceit came out in an iconic Christmas Day episode that year. Grant/Sharon/Phil: Heading even further back in Walford history, EastEnders fans were gripped in the 90s as Sharon Watts had a one-night stand with her brother-in-law Phil Mitchell.

EMMERDALE Ross/Debbie/Pete: Debbie Dingle found herself torn between two brothers, Ross and Pete Barton in 2015 in Emmerdale. She eventually decided to marry Pete but yet again, a soap wedding day was ruined when the groom learned of his bride's betrayal via a recording played at the wedding. Chrissie/Robert/Aaron: Robert Sugden was married to Chrissie White and all seemed well - until he began a steamy affair with Aaron Dingle.

The Albert Square stalwart's next move could see her entire world come crashing down. 4 4 Jean (Gillian Wright) made a surprise proposal in Monday's episode of EastEnders as she asked Harvey Monroe (Ross Boatman) to marry her.

Jean said: "I'm a lucky girl, Harvey. I'm lucky to have you and I don't tell you often enough and I know I give you a hard time sometimes. "But honestly, there's not a single day that goes by when I don't look at you and thank my lucky stars." As Harvey interrupted Jean and asked her: "Do you think we can go somewhere in private?" Jean chimed in: "I want to do something - Harvey Monroe... will you marry me?" EastEnders win TV Bafta for the first time in six years after Emmerdale was forced to withdraw However, Jean's spontaneous decision to propose sets off a chain of events that shockingly exposes his and Kathy's affair. Upcoming scenes will see Harvey finally pluck up the courage to tell Jean the truth - but just as he's about to confess, he ends up accidentally accepting her proposal.

In classic Cindy style, she hijacks the celebration and stuns punters by playing the explosive video of Kathy and Harvey's steamy smooch… right in front of a devastated Jean. Will Jean kick Harvey to the kerb for good - or is there still hope for the unlucky-in-love cabbie? EastEnders airs Monday to Thursday at 7:30pm on BBC One or stream from 6am on BBC iPlayer. 4 4

EastEnders films explosive summer wedding as filming leaks online months in advance
A MAJOR EastEnders spoiler has leaked months ahead of airing - with a huge wedding set to take place in Walford this summer. The BBC soap recently filmed a top secret wedding on the Elstree set and unfortunately for them, parts were captured by drone footage. 2 2 The footage was then leaked online by fans - months before airing. It shows a party in the Queen Vic and a stretched limo arriving in the Square with some of Walford's finest in their Sunday best getting into the party atmosphere. A source said: 'It's a bit of a nightmare. 'Drones are always hovering about but this is the first time a major storyline has leaked from them.' In the video - that has now been removed from the internet - a cast member can be seen beckoning the drone in further while filming in the famous Square. The wedding is set to air this summer and has been kept a closely-guarded secret - though there are a number of couples that could be tying the knot. Lauren Branning and Peter Beale were the most recent to get engaged after a family secret confirmed that Lauren hadn't tried to kill Cindy Beale during a drug-induced blackout. The recently returned Vicki Fowler and new love Ross could also be a potential summer wedding. And next week's spoilers have revealed that Harvey Monroe and Jean Slater are also getting engaged. However with Harvey's affair with Kathy Beale set to be exposed - could it be Harvey and Kathy walking down the aisle?
