WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD
EastEnders bosses have revealed that Dean Wicks (Matt Di Angelo) and Stacey Branning (Lacey Turner) will grow closer in the coming weeks as they work together at the salon.
And, as Stacey seeks comfort from Dean following problems in her relationship with Kat and Alfie Moon, the pair will end up kissing.
Show chiefs have yet to confirm whether Dean and Stacey's kiss will lead to a full romance, but Matt Di Angelo has revealed that his character will move on with a new girlfriend after he rapes Linda.
HOW WILL JACQUELINE JOSSA'S PREGNANCY AFFECT EASTENDERS' LAUREN BRANNING?
He said this week: "When the rape happens, Linda's physical reaction is that her body doesn't scream, 'No, stop!' Dean reads it as him being a little bit forceful, but he thinks it happens and it's okay.
"So he doesn't address it, he carries on and he gets a new girlfriend afterwards."
There is no doubt in our mind that Stacey would be absolutely horrified if she knew of Dean's shocking attack on Linda.

It has also been revealed that Abi Branning (Lorna Fitzgerald) will viciously attack Lauren (Jacqueline Jossa) at a Halloween event, shortly after her sister and Peter Beale (Ben Hardy) discover they are being followed by whom they presume to be Lucy's killer.
Could Abi have had more to do with Lucy's murder than we previously thought?
