EastEnders - Shabnam Masood will make plans to get her daughter Jade back despite reservations from her partner Kush Kazemi.

Shabnam will have a change of heart about Jade.

Despite Shabnam's decision to seek custody of the youngster, Kush is firmly against the idea and will turn to Masood for advice.

After Kush later finds Shabnam talking to Jade's social worker Fiona, he is shocked to learn that she hasn't told them about Zaair's death and decides to take matters into his own hands.

Kush meets with Fiona and opens up about the death of their son, but Shabnam is unaware of this and pushes on with preparations for her next visit.

However, Shabnam is floored when Fiona asks about Zaair and suggests they need more time before they consider looking after a child.

Believing Dean is the one who told Fiona, a fuming Shabnam storms over to Blades to confront him but as she argues with Roxy, Kush admits it was actually him.

Back home, Kush explains his actions to a devastated Shabnam, but after a conversation with her father, she goes to The Vic and tells Kush he's right about how they should wait.

Despite Shabnam's decision, she decides to visit Jade anyway following a confrontation with Dean and is delighted when they start to bond. After taking Jade to the park, she is soon confronted by Stacey, who is concerned about her sudden change of heart.
