If they ever do, it's going to take a long time. But reunions are inevitable in EE, unless you happen to be Derek Branning in which case your son wants to make amends only after your demise.
I reckon they'll be playing happy families a couple of years from now, assuming the actors decide to stay on.

So do you think one of them will forgive him and the other won't or they won't ever forgive him?

I'm not sure. I can see them "moving past it" just as they did with Stacey, but considering all the trauma they went through following that reveal, did they ever fully forgive Max? Now there's the Lucy reveal. I think it's just one step too far and although they may well pretend everything's normal, I don't think they'll ever be able to trust him. He just can't help letting them down.
Altough it was a bit inappropriate of course they were both consenting adults. Lucy wasnt a child and was willing too .
I cant abide Max but I dont think what he did was so dreadful that everyone is attacking him for it

I can see why everyone thinks it's weird as she was his daughter's best friend and he watched her grow up, but as you say, the way they all started turning on him like vultures is hypocritical, considering everyone on that Square has a "history".

So do you think they hate him for it? Who do you think will be the first to move back in the house with him and who do you think will take the longest to move back in with him? Do you think they will be living with him at Christmas again and by this time next year? How long did it take Carol to forgive Bianca for having an affair with Dan?
I hope the this drives Abi to leave, her character is a complete and utter drip. Lauren is two faced. What's the big deal? Is it just that Lucy was her friend? I'm sure that Lauren and Sadie were quite friendly when she was with Jake. At least Lucy and Max were both single. Max would be better off without either ofthem, the same old Lauren and Abi hating Max merry-go-round is boring.

Did you like Abi when she first arrived in 2006? Why would Max be better off with either of them? Do you mean when you say Max would be better off without them that he should never speak to them or see them again?

But Abi shouldn't hate her dad forever and neither should Lauren he has not murdered anyone has he? Lots of people have affairs but their children don't hate them for it. Hate is a strong word. Do you think by Christmas this year or by Max's birthday next year they will be talking to him again?
No, I've never liked Abi. Max would be better of without his hypocritical, judgemental daughters living with him. They're old enough to live wherever they want, leaving Max to date who he wants when he wants.
Was there ever an explanation as to why Tanya never bothered to come back to her daughters best friends funeral.

I think it really depends where they want to go with the Branning family dynamic MG, I get criticised on here for saying it but Lauren and Max are my fave characters abi less so.
I don't think abi will be in the show long tern, j jossa and j wood will be in it as long as they want to be

But Abi was only 10 when she first came to Walford how could you not like her then? So you don't think Max shouldn't see or talk to his daughters?

When do you think Lauren will forgive her dad and move back in with him and when/if she does do you think she will try to convince Abi to talk to him again?

Lauren has had more of history of lots of downs in life and I think she has a lot in common with her dad with some of the decisions she has made.
Once Lauren realises this again she will try to get abi to talk to her.

Don't you mean him? So do you think Lauren will forgive her dad and move back in with him and then try and get Abi to talk to Max again? I would prefer it if one of his daughters forgives him. Do you think both of them would have forgiven him by Christmas or this time next year?

Yeah, Lauren and Max have clashed because they are really similar, in a lot of ways (thankfully not in the hair department ). Lauren's been through a heck of a lot and will forgive Max in the end, no problems. Abi, on the other hand...
Yes, if Kat can forgive Ronnie for taking her baby and swapping it for a dead one I'm sure Lauren/Abi will forgive Max.
Max usual bs 'time to put things right/it's a new start' please just shut up Max, they really need to start doing something new for him. His character so stale and predictable these days.

If you were EP now would you have Lauren and Abi be really mad with Max and move out and not talk to him for a bit and then have one of them forgive him and then the other one?
