JAY Brown has been rekindling with single life following his breakup with his partner Honey Mitchell.
Next week in EastEnders, this brings him straight back to his former flame Lola Pearce as he makes a surprising decision.
Believing they wanted very different things, mostly due to their age gap, Honey Mitchell decided it was time to call it quits with Jay.
Since then, the character portrayed by Jamie Borthwick has made the most of single life and has benefitted from the support of many other Walford residents – including his ex-girlfriend Lola (played by Danielle Harold).
Coming up on the BBC One soap, Lola and Jay continue to spend time as friends until life in Albert Square leads them to realise the nature of their feelings for one another.
It all begins when Lola, eager to see them patch things up, plans to get Ben Mitchell and Callum Highway talking by helping Vi move out of her house.
