Brett: 'Ian and Jane could be over'

Laurie Brett has admitted that she is not sure if EastEnders' Ian and Jane Beale can survive their latest drama.

Jane is to discover that step-daughter Lucy (Melissa Suffield) had an abortion earlier this year and, along with Ian (Adam Woodyatt), lied about having a miscarriage.

"They have been through so much and have always come back together," she told What's On TV. "But this could be the straw that breaks the camel’s back. At the moment, Jane doesn't feel that she can forgive Ian."

Brett added that she believes Jane "deserved a medal" for all she has put up as the fourth Mrs Beale. However, she said that once Jane discovers the truth, she is "distraught" and determined to have her revenge.

"She starts by telling Ian she doesn’t want to adopt a child and asks for his credit card so she can book a holiday," she revealed. "Money is important to Ian and stealing from him will hurt. She also secretly plans to leave."

If Jane will really leave Ian for good is unclear and Brett teased: "We'll have to wait and see."

She added: "She’s forgiven him so many times, but this time, she might not be able to forget."
