EastEnders viewers have taken to social media to share their heartbreak after husbands Ben Mitchell and Callum Halfway split up.
The pair came to blows after the mechanic was spotted kissing barman Lewis – but Callum walked out of the club before he saw Ben pull away.
Ben and Callum's relationship has been strained in recent weeks after the Mitchell-heir went on a string of violent attacks following several homophobic incidents on Albert Square.
During an emotional confrontation at the allotments, Callum revealed to Ben that their relationship was completely over.
Following their feud on Bridge Street, Ben found his husband sat in the local allotments and explained: "I'd never cheat on you, I was upset and angry because you walked out on me.
"Lewis got the wrong idea, we were chatting about what it's like for people like us.
"We both came out at a young age, he gets it, we both understand this stuff," before Callum stormed off.
The local police officer said: "Is that why you never told me about the attacks because you thought I couldn't handle it? There's a reason I was trapped in the closet for so long.
"My dad would rather pretend he never had a son than have me."
After an emotional argument, Callum exclaimed: "All I have ever done is love you and support you and care for you.
"I am constantly making excuses for you, you're too busy feeling sorry for yourself and making everything about you.
"I won't do this anymore, Ben, I won't, we're done – I've got nothing left to give."
After reuniting earlier in the episode, Ben quizzed his other half about where he had stayed the night before but Callum swiftly responded by asking the same question.
Callum exclaimed: "I came to see you, I saw you and Lewis looking very cosy."
"He kissed me," added Ben before Callum responded: "It didn't look like you had a problem with it."
Ben explained: "I was drunk, as soon as my brain caught up, I stopped it. You can't seriously think I'm interested in him."
"Me being a mug that I am, I actually wanted to come and find out the excuse why you smashed up your own nephew, instead I find you kissing some other bloke," fumed Callum.
He added: "The only thing I should be worried about today Ben is that my brother has his first chemo."
But he didn't stop there, in a devastating twist for the couple, he said: "Maybe this time, I don't want to forgive you."
Fans have since expressed their heartbreak on Twitter, with one penning: "Callum finished with Ben #EastEnders."
A second added: "God that scene between the boys of #Ballum that was a killer blow #EastEnders."
"OMG is that the end of Ballum #EastEnders," fumed a third,
