EastEnders aired more dramatic scenes for Reiss Colwell on Monday night.
Only recently on the B.B.C One soap, Reiss has embarked on another IVF attempt with girlfriend Sonia Fowler after the nurse found out he had been using his comatose wife Debbie’s money to fund the treatment. Sonia’s sister Bianca Jackson uncovered the truth as she tracked Reiss down and found him by Debbie’s bedside in hospital after discovering he had tried to scam Kat Slater and Jay Brown in vain to gather the funds necessary for his other half.
Viewers will recall that Reiss eventually admitted to Sonia what he had been up to and after initial reluctance, the nurse was then convinced by Kathy Beale to give her beau some credit and the couple agreed to give things another shot… with the rest of Debbie’s money in hand. EastEnders viewers have been left wary of Reiss, speculating that Debbie’s coma could have been the result of his own actions.
In recent episodes, it was revealed that Debbie’s care fees were three months overdue and the accountant was stressed over the £18,000 bill. And on Monday night, things only got worse when Debbie’s care home rung Reiss to reveal he still owes them money and that Debbie will be moved if he doesn’t pay.

Feeling desperate, Reiss decided to scam Sharon Watts and lied to her about an outstanding VAT receipt. However, he soon felt guilty when she became emotional about late partner Keanu Taylor. Struggling with his money woes and lies, Reiss visited Debbie for solace before deciding to come clean to Sonia. Yet in true soap style, just as Reiss was about to come clean, Sonia revealed the good news that she is pregnant.
Despite the good news, Reiss still decided to come clean about their debt, leaving Sonia upset about his dishonesty again and ruining her exciting news. Later, Reiss headed to Sharon saying he had made a mistake and that the VAT bill still stands, warning she’ll need to pay £13,500 as soon as possible.
Taking to Twitter, now X, viewers wondered whether Debbie could wake up and due to Reiss confiding in her, could come clean about his behaviour. One person said: “Reiss admitting to Debbie about his crimes, she gonna wake up & tell all #EastEnders”, a different account put: “What is Reiss going to do when Debbie wakes up? I mean, it’s #EastEnders… she’s bound to wake up sooner or later”, another wrote: “Every time Debbie is on the screen I think she’s going to wake up #EastEnders” while a different fan added: “The amount I’d give if Debbie actually – did – suddenly wake up from her coma to agree with Reiss that he is a Terrible person etc indeed! #EastEnders.”
