Cindy Beale's attacker has been uncovered after her brutal EastEnders Christmas Day attack. The love rat was left horrified when daughter-in-law Lauren Branning revealed to the whole of Albert Square that Cindy had been sleeping with her ex-husband, George Knight's son, Junior – behind her fiancé, Ian Beale's back. As the drama continued to unfold, Cindy unleashed hell as she lashed out at her family including son Peter Beale and daughters, Gina and Anna Knight.
But the drama was far from over, after the affair was revealed in a dramatic way, Cindy pleaded with Ian to take her back and hoped the pair could make a new life in France. But Ian had a crafty trick up his sleeve, the local businessman had played Cindy at her own game and rejected her when she went in for a kiss.
He later launched her out of the family home, leaving her flat on her face in the snow as her life continued to crumble. However, as the episode came to a dramatic end, an anonymous attacker whacked Cindy over the head with a snow shovel from behind – leaving her unconscious in the middle of the Square.
As Cindy lay out cold, she was discovered by Kathy Beale and her former husband, George, who confirmed that she was still alive, although she was bleeding from her head. But seconds after the discovery, Elaine walked in to the kitchen to find Cindy and George's daughter Anna rapidly washing her hands. In a state of shock, Anna claimed her dog, Tyson, had thrown up on her hands in an attempt to cover her tracks.
