However, Frankie tells him she doesn't want him to tell anyone else and to keep it to himself.

Darren is later put in a difficult situation when JJ wants to go to a party and asks Darren if he can give him a lift.

The torn dad agrees thinking that anything that keeps JJ away from Frankie is a good idea right now.

An annoyed Diane accuses Tony of overreacting but the accusations are soon flying and an argument breaks out with Suzanne and Dave Chen-Williams (Dominic Power) also caught in the crossfire.

As a bitter row spills out into the road, Tony and Diane’s children watch on in horror and are immediately worried that their parents’ marriage is in serious trouble.
