EastEnders has aired a proposal cliffhanger for Suki Panesar and Eve Unwin.

Tuesday’s (August 6) episode saw the couple’s romantic storyline crossover with

Reiss Colwell’s continuing financial troubles. Eve has been rattled this week by

the sudden reappearance of Ayesha Siddhu, the first woman that Suki ever fell in love with. The latest instalment initially saw the two at odds when Eve blew up after hearing Suki continually lavish praise on Ayesha. Eve turned to Stacey for support, with her best mate suggesting that Nish was trying to stir up trouble by reuniting Suki and Ayesha after all these years.

So it’s going to be a very pivotal moment for Ayesha, that’s for sure.”
