However, he instead gave Cindy’s son Hilton (his half-brother) a life-saving transplant, became his godfather, and leaving the village soon after.

“A bomb went off. Aziz died instantly.

“Aidan – I tried my best to save him. I told him that I could but I was lying but I had to, I could see the fear in his eyes.

“I held his hand as he slowly slipped away. I hugged his body after, I hugged him and hugged him… I had to be dragged off.”

John went on to heartbreakingly tell Victoria that he has never been able to forgive himself for not being able to save Aidan.

With John now having opened up about his traumatic past to Victoria, could this finally be the start of a blossoming sibling relationship?
