Chelsea Fox was pushed to breaking point in EastEnders today after learning that little Jordan may never walk again following his devastating accident.
The crushing update left Chelsea overwhelmed with guilt, having already blamed herself for the events that led to her son ending up in hospital.
In last night’s episode, Chelsea and Ian Beale came face-to-face for the first time since the accident.
Rather than the explosive confrontation many viewers expected, Chelsea admitted she shared responsibility for what happened after losing her temper with Jordan at Ross and Vicki’s wedding.
Ian tried to comfort her, insisting she was a good mum, and the pair appeared to reach an understanding that the tragedy was a terrible accident for which neither could take all the blame.
But that fragile peace didn’t last long.

Chelsea lashed out at Ian in EastEnders
Needing someone to blame for Jordan’s situation, Chelsea left the hospital and marched straight over to Ian’s house. She was fuming to find him relaxing with a beer while she had just told her son that he might never walk again.
He apologised profusely, but instead of accepting his apology, Chelsea slapped him.
Ian was shocked by how much Chelsea had changed her tune since they were at the hospital. She lashed out, telling him she knew he had hired a lawyer and that she was ready for a fight.
Chelsea admitted that while he might have pulled the wool over her eyes at the hospital, she is going to make sure he pays for what he has done to Jordan.
