EastEnders has aired an emotional outcome for Yolande Trueman following her big
decision in the show’s latest episode. This week saw Yolande struggle at Jordan’s baptism,
as she had to come face-to-face with Pastor Clayton, who sexually assaulted her back in

While Yolande managed to get through the ceremony, when Pastor Clayton put his arm around her waist, she snapped and ran out the church before making the brave decision to report her sexual assault at the police station.
