SHOCKING NEWS!!! EastEnders’ Yolande makes a big decision in early iPlayer release

EastEnders’ Yolande Trueman has made a big decision after a dramatic baptism

in the show’s latest episode. Yolande has been struggling since she was sexually assaulted

by Pastor Clayton back in April. After she bravely opened up to husband Patrick about her

ordeal, she also told member of the church Levi, who promised to investigate – but when Yolande and Patrick returned from holiday last week, they discovered that Levi had left Walford.

Yolande was anxious about the day, considering Pastor Clayton would be taking the service, but Patrick was on hand to support her.

As everyone gathered to leave for the church, Yolande felt more positive and decided that the day would be a celebration of their family – with Kim’s extravagant hat stealing the show. Meanwhile, Bernie had decided not to attend the baptism as she was still raw from Keanu’s funeral, but a comment from Jean gave her something to think about.

Denise took this time to speak to Yolande, and she asked if something had happened between her and the Pastor, but she didn’t reveal the truth. Pastor Clayton overheard, and he intimidated Yolande, checking that she hadn’t told Denise anything.

As Yolande hid in the foyer, Bernie arrived, having changed her mind about attending the baptism. They had an emotional chat, and Bernie remarked that she’d always thought Yolande was brave.

She walked out of the church, murmuring that she can’t be a hypocrite, while her family were left concerned. At the end of the episode, Yolande arrived at the police station, and took a huge step by deciding to report her sexual assault. After Yolande’s act of bravery, will there be consequences for Pastor Clayton?
