Family Clash Leads To A Shocking Moment
This Christmas, Max Branning will be at the centre of some dramatic scenes. The Brannings and Beales had come together to celebrate Jimmy Beale’s christening. However, Max ends up fighting with his brother, Jack. The whole event was filmed at a church in Hertford.
When Max arrived at the church, Jack tried hard to stay calm. However, it still brought back old anger. For some time, they both tried to act normally. But then Jack said something that angered Max Branning. Nobody was successful in breaking the fight between the two as they kept fighting. In addition, Lauren and Peter were strolling at some distance, and they felt very embarrassed since people whispered around them.
Later, the fight turned physical. And Max can be seen with blood on his face. Even Cindy Beale was a part of the family gathering. She was with Jack’s daughter, Amy Mitchell. Elsewhere, Max’s lip was cut, and he soon walked away.
It wasn’t the first time he had ruined a family event. And probably it might not be the last one either. Max had only recently arrived in Walford. A moment meant for love had turned violent. Will Jack and Max make peace?
