Tanya Branning hasn’t got long to wait until the birth of her baby son, as she is set to go into labour next week.

Tanya’s waters will break while she is at home next Thursday (13th December), and true to form she won’t be able to get hold of her husband, love rat, Max.

An EastEnders source told The Daily Mail: “Tanya is furious when she goes into labour and can’t get hold of Max.

“She’s only got her two young daughters Lauren and Abby at home. But luckily for her, Max arrives back just in time to help bring baby Branning into the world.”

Max may wheedle his way back into Tanya’s good books for now, but come Christmas day things will change, as the whole of Albert Square finds out about his and Stacey’s affair!
