\n\t\tLewis Barton turns matchmaker (Picture: ITV)<\/p>\n
Having just managed to turn around the fortunes of the caf\u00e9 with his Midas touch, Emmerdale\u2019s Lewis Barton<\/a> (Bradley Riches<\/a>) is about to go into Cupid mode as well.<\/p>\n There is nothing this kid can\u2019t do,<\/a> from growing medicinal weed to making the villagers Shakshuka eggs, now he\u2019s about to solve his brother\u2019s love woes to boot.<\/p>\n Lewis learns about Ross Barton<\/a> (Mike Parr) failed relationship with Steph (Georgia Jay<\/a>) and resolves to do something about it.<\/p>\n Ross and Steph had an unexpected relationship that flourished for a while but quickly became doomed when she learned that she was the product of sexual abuse and that her grandfather was really her father.<\/p>\n \t\t \t\t Something like that can really put a dampener on a fledgling relationship, and for her and Ross it was too much. Steph was distraught to learn of what happened to her mother and became fixated on her looks, claiming that every glance in a mirror she saw Anthony looking back at her.<\/p>\n After several failed attempts at plastic surgery<\/a>, Steph finally broke down and despite all his support, dumped Ross to focus on herself. She told him she couldn\u2019t be the person he needed, and she was setting him free.<\/p>\n Steph hasn\u2019t been seen much since then, but she\u2019s back.<\/p>\n Lewis digs into Ross\u2019 relationship and finds himself intrigued by the story with Steph. It doesn\u2019t seem to have had a proper ending; it was more like bad timing.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\tFollow Metro Soaps on WhatsApp and get all the latest spoilers first!\t\t\t<\/p>\n Want to be the first to hear shocking EastEnders spoilers?
