Reiss got some worrying news (Picture: BBC)
What started off as a good day for Sonia Fowler and Reiss Colwell (Natalie Cassidy and Jonny Freeman) in EastEnders ended in tragic circumstances when Reiss received a call from the hospital.
Things started off positive for the couple, who recently started their IVF journey in the hopes of having a baby together, following the revelation that Reiss was unable to naturally conceive.
While enjoying a drink in the Queen Vic with Rocky and Kathy (Brian Conley and Gillian Taylforth), Reiss revealed that he and Sonia had been to the clinic where she had been given a trigger shot.
This meant that, after 36 hours of injecting the shot, they would be able to retrieve Sonia’s eggs, ready to start the process of fertilising them.
After getting home, Sonia suggested that they have a romantic evening together to help them relax before administering the injection, something that she wanted Reiss to be part of.

He agreed, and soon Sonia had put on her best nightgown and was sprinkling the stairs with rose petals.
Little did she know, Reiss was taking a frantic phone call in the kitchen, where he received bad news.
He was quick to tell Sonia that it had been the hospital on the phone informing him that wife Debbie had contracted another infection and that they weren’t sure she was going to pull through this time.
