Fans of EastEnders are convinced that wife Debbie could be the key to Reiss Colwell’s downfall. This comes as he attempts to raise money by scamming Sharon out of hers. Reiss has taken on a job handling Sharon’s accounts. In doing so, he has chipped off some for himself by lying about her outstanding debts… and pocketing the cash.
Guilt-ridden Reiss confessed what he had done to comatose wife Debbie. As he sat her bedside, he told her all about the scam.
This led some fans of the soap to wonder whether Debbie could awaken from her coma… and spill all about what Reiss has been up to.
