EastEnders Joel aftermath revealed as Mark and Ross clash again
EastEnders has revealed that there’s set to be another bust-up between Ross Marshall and the recently-returned Mark Fowler Jr next week, following the dramatic court scenes.
Last week saw Mark return to Albert Square, and while sister Vicki’s court appearance wasn’t his main reason (he’s involved in some drug-dealing gang drama), he still made his feelings about the situation known – with a punch to Ross’ face.

But while Ross’s son Joel eventually pleaded guilty to attacking Vicki and is set to be sentenced for his crime, Mark is still furious with Ross.
Newly-released pictures show the two getting in a scuffle once again, with Zack Hudson stepping in to stop them.
So what spurs Mark into kicking off this time? Well you may have already read that Mark finds out that Ross is planning on proposing to Vicki, after their relationship has seemingly got back on track.
Mark isn’t thrilled about the news and makes his feelings known once again, chastising Ross for not protecting Vicki when it mattered.
Mark will find out about that next week, and he’s shaken by the thought – given that Zack and Sharon are siblings, and Vicki and Sharon were essentially raised as sisters too.
It looks like it might be Vicki who ends up revealing the secret to Ross, though, as spoilers reveal that she’s so taken aback by Ross’ romantic proposal that she blurts out something that will leave him demanding answers.
EastEnders re-introduced Mark Fowler Jr this week, with Stephen Aaron-Sipple taking over the role from Emmerdale star Ned Porteous, and things were dramatic right from the off, with the character turning up battered and covered in blood.
Scenes that aired this week showed that he’s involved with a criminal drugs gang, and has been suspected of being a police informant.
Mark asked his uncle Phil Mitchell for help in finding the actual informant – which viewers know is Ravi Gulati.
It’s safe to say that this isn’t the Mark Fowler Jr we saw previously, something Aaron-Sipple has touched upon.
“Mark is very different,” he said. “10 years ago, Mark had a little bit of an edge to him, but during his time away, life has definitely hardened him, so we’re going to see a new side to him.”
