I doubt her anger will pay next months mortgage payment though. Oops
Hope it keeps them all warm when she's made them all homeless.

He wasn't their dad when he was swearing on Oscars life to save a lie or when he was sleeping with Tanya when Lauren had begged him to stop.
But Tanya and Max were equally to blame for the affair. Lauren can't pin it all on him this time. Tanya went to him and said she wanted to be with him remember - then she pushed him away when she found out she had cancer.

Max has done this before though. He wrecked their family over Stacy. Tanya has only done it once, so she would be more angry with Max who doesn't learn his lesson. Also Lauren knows Max was the one who pursued Tanya.

This is no defense for Max's behaviour and I don't blame the girls having enough of him.

I agree that Max cheated before with Stacey and didn't learn his lesson. I can't remember now who pursued who but Max and Tanya did kiss the day he had the car crash and it was obvious even to Cora that Tanya didn't love Greg. Max was only with Vanessa because Tanya was with Greg. He admitted to Tanya he was content with Vanessa but happy with her. Not an excuse to cheat of course but I can't help thinking that this is different from the Max/Stacey affair in that Tanya and Max do love each other despite everything and I was really hoping Tanya would tell Max the truth about the cancer tonight but she didn't.

He said he loved Stacey. He only loves himself. He didn't think of Tanya and kids when he was begging Stacey to let him run off with her.

It's Uncle Jack's house. Why would she?

And Lauren has been living at Tanya and Greg's anyway.
Exactly glad you said that, Why has EE seem to have forgotten this, Jack owns a house he basically doesn't live in really.

That was really cold.

At least Tanya had the decency to say she wasn't fit to be their mother. Max was swearing on his kids life... wtf?!
i think its about if he believes in that sort of stuff. people have different beliefs and max probably doesn't think anything of it. its not like oscar is going to suddenly die just because of what max said?

im not defending him just pointing that out

Laurem is a spoilt brat who contributes nothing to the upkeep of the house. Max should have told her to get out. She had no right to tell him to get out.

As for Max & Tanya, they`re both as bad as one anotther. Tanya broke up Max`s first marriage, she`s slept with both Sean & Jack. She`s now had an affair with Max whilst married to Greg.
Max has had an affair with Tanya whilst married to Rachel, he then cheated on Tanya with another unnamed woman & with Stacey who threw herself at him. He has now cheated on Vanessa.
I`d say they were about even on being unfaithful.

Lauren shouldn`t be taking Tanya`s side as both her parents are in the wrong. She`s now forced Abi to reject her father when she loves both her parents. Lauren is evil, she`s already tried to murder her father. Everything has to be about her.

The only good part of this episode was Vanessa having having a go at Tanya & Max, they both deserved it. Cora was good too.

And Tanya had promised Lauren that the affair would stop.

She doesn't have the authority to chuck her dad out of his own house though does she? By all means be angry with him, he deserves it. But Lauren does seem to have a high opinion of herself.

I've aways been quite indifferent to Lauren, but I was cheering her on tonight.

Ditto Vanessa when she slapped Tanya.

I can't stand Lauren, it's like she's aged 5yrs from the other character who played her & I just find her so annoying. I mean kicking your Dad out of his own home, so will her & Abi be living in that massive house without an adult? It's just so unbelievable, why didn't she just say were not living with you & go to Tanya's and where is he going to get his money from to pay for accommodation etc? It was only about a year ago that he was bankrupt!

Good on Lauren standing up for her family, Max cheated on his first wife with Tanya, he had an affair with his own sons wife behind Tanyas back, and then cheats on Vanessa with Tanya again. Hes put himself first before all four of his children.

Tanya is just as bad, she had the cheek to give Stacey all the abuse she did, and has done the same Vanessa?

Vanessa the saint who cheated on her husband to get with Max in the first place.

I never said Vanessa was a saint either, Vanessa was an unloved housewife, Harry had numerous different women, Vanessa was merely a trophy wife to take to business events and meals and to do the cleaning and cooking, a maid and a escort could have provided those services.

No, Max has been cheating. She has a right to be angry.
She's angry that her father is having an affair with her mother

Max will be able to rent somewhere if he stops paying the mortgage

What I don't understand is why she is so bothered with it. I mean surely it would be the best for them all if her mum and dad got together. She is far to busy chasing after Rayn to let her parents arguments effect her nowadays anyways. If Tanya can forgive him and still love him after all they've been through then what's her problem.

Its ok for her to sleep with some 28 year old drug dealer behind her parents back but not for her parents to still want to be together.

Plus Lauren lives with Tanya anyways so Max's house isn't even where she lives how could she just ask him to leave his children, business and everything and go that too without even asking her mum if she wanted him or if she loved him

I don't think the op understands the character of Lauren at all!

She has been completely ripped apart by the first affair - there was a time she felt she was to blame for the breakup of the family and then she realized it was Max.
Now its happened again, I think Max honestly got off lightly. When there was a showdown going on between Vanessa and Max and the 2 girls were just watching, I was willing someone to pick up the end of a glass and either throw it or stab Max with it! :P

Lauren is in the right. Any decent father would give his daughter some space after the events that girls been through.

i dont think lauren loves max at all...she has serious daddy issues. regardless of the stuff lauren has done to max (run him over), he still/always will love her
To be fair from the very beginning she always moaned Abi was her dads fave and she hated it. She shouldnt allowed to drive and threaten to run her dad over thogh.

That was really cold.

At least Tanya had the decency to say she wasn't fit to be their mother. Max was swearing on his kids life... wtf?!
Especially seeing as Bradleys actually dead.

I don't think Tanya/Jack counts as that was after Max and Tanya split up and though a lot of people didn't like them together as a couple, I did. But I do agree with the rest of what you are saying. Though cheating is undoubtedly wrong, in this case it was obvious neither Max nor Tanya loved their new partners and the affair only happened because it was a soap - otherwise Tanya would have confessed to Greg that she still loves Max and Max would have done the same with Vanessa. Tanya and Max are both equally to blame I agree and poor Abi - she loves both Max and Tanya which is how it should be.
