How To Get To The City Of Tears

Eli Ebrahimi's wife Amelia has left Holby City fans rather emotional after she discovered she has a tumour.

The young woman, who has been desperately trying for a baby, received devastating news which can potentially alter her family plans.

Sharing the results from her latest check up with Eli, Amelia broke down in tears as she gave him the disappointing news.

Watching the disheartening scene unfold, viewers took to social media platform Twitter to share their thoughts.

One fan wrote: "God, poor Amelia. Briggs-Owen is a great actress."

Another said: "F*****g hell, that scene with Eli and Amelia was heart-breaking. Davood Ghadami and Lucy Briggs-Owen are both such excellent actors."

A third penned: "Glad Amelia and Eli's relationship is deemed important enough to get the pre-titles scene, sad it's in this context. I just want them both to be happy."

Meanwhile a fourth said: "Amelia is such a gentle soul isn't she," followed by a crying emoji.

Later on in the episode after receiving the results from the scan, Eli appeared taken aback.

As they sat down in the ward, Eli said: "I can't loose you, Amelia."

"You're not going to," she replied.

But despite her reassurance, Eli's face still appeared bleak as he glared sheepishly into the distance.

Viewers will have to wait and see what's in store for Amelia and whether she will be able to survive her recent diagnosis.

Amelia has previously suffered with health scares and previously fainted in the ward a few months back.

While trying to get husband Eli to help her with her IVF treatment, Amelia noticed his reluctance.

Having a heart to heart, Amelia asked Eli what was going on.

Amelia asked: "Why didn't you try today Eli?"

Eli replied: "Of course I tried."

After quite a long pause he continued: "Do you remember the day we found out, when they told us it was me I was the problem."

Amelia replied: "No one ever said that!"

"It's a fact, I fix things, that's my whole job but today I've let you down."

Feeling upset with his response, Amelia reassured him and they agreed that they need to communicate more going forward.
