EastEnders has worked with experts and charities on the story.
Yolande faces an horrific ordeal EastEnders is set to air a harrowing new storyline that will see Yolande Trueman sexually assaulted by Pastor Clayton in upcoming scenes. Yolande believed Pastor Clayton to be a close friend and confidante, until recent scenes saw him grow overly tactile during a hug. When Yolande spoke up against him, he denied any wrongdoing, then cruelly took her charity project away from her as a punishment for calling out his behaviour.
‘Older women, black women and others who are marginalised are at the sharp end of this, with huge consequences for their access to justice and support. TV shows can play a huge role in shifting attitudes across society. ‘We hope this storyline helps dispel myths and stereotypes about what victims and survivors look like and how perpetrators behave, and ultimately increases understanding of sexual assault.
