Rocky Cotton will have some explaining to do once his big secret comes to light in new scenes of EastEnders<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Actor Brian Conley has discussed how Rocky has been trying to postpone a crucial confrontation with his fianc\u00e9e Kathy Beale (Gillian Taylforth), who\u2019s unaware he\u2019s still married.<\/p>\n

It seems as though Rocky will have to come through in new scenes as his ex Jo (played by Vicki Michelle<\/a>) arrives to Walford.<\/p>\n

\u201cRocky has tried to bury his past, like he does with so many things. I think he hoped deep down that it would just go away,\u201d Conley told press including RadioTimes.com<\/a>.<\/p>

While he couldn\u2019t muster the courage to tell Kathy, Rocky has opened up to Sonia Fowler (Natalie Cassidy), who\u2019s still very suspicious of him after he pretended to be her father.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe does slowly sympathise with Rocky because of what Reiss says and I think she knows that Rocky really does love Kathy,\u201d Conley explained, finding a precious ally in Walford newcomer Reiss Colwell<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Played by Jonny Freeman, Dot Branning\u2019s (June Brown) great-nephew will try and support Rocky in such a delicate situation.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think with Reiss\u2019 knowledge of contracts and his ability to sort out the financials being an accountant, Rocky feels like there is someone there who can really help with his situation, rather than having to try and figure out how to get out of the situation himself,\u201d Conley said.<\/p>\n

But not even Reiss could help Rocky when Jo shows up to Albert Square, looking to speak to Kathy.<\/p>\n

\u201cOnce he sees Jo arrive, he knows that\u2019s it,\u201d Conley confirmed.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen Jo turns up on Kathy\u2019s doorstep, Rocky\u2019s not there at first as he\u2019s at the car lot, so he watches on in horror as Jo prepares to greet Kathy at the door. With Rocky knowing what Jo can be like, he knows that all hell is going to break loose.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rocky may mean well, but his lack of transparency could truly put his romance with Kathy to the test.<\/p>\n

\u201c[He] is so in love with Kathy, and will do anything for her,\u201d Conley said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think over the last year, Kathy has realised how much he loves her, and I just hope that prevails.\u201d<\/p>\n
