Viewers will know that Joel put Lauren through hell last year, when he groomed her before attacking and leaving her for dead.
An investigation was launched into her murder, before she eventually turned up alive and pregnant with Joel’s baby.
As if he hadn’t been cruel enough, Joel drugged Lauren with pills designed to induce early labour in an attempt to make her lose the baby.
Fortunately, his plan failed, and Lauren gave birth to son Frankie.
Joel continued to bring Lauren misery, until she eventually killed him by hitting him over the head with a rock while he tried to strangle Max Turner to death.
She was later found not guilty of his murder in court, and has been trying to rebuild her life with Frankie ever since.
As her hallucinations got stronger, Lauren stumbled into the factory, where she believed that Joel had taken Frankie.
By the time Aadi finally found her, Lauren was hysterical. Will she recover from her horrifying ordeal, or is it set to open up old wounds?
