Viewers have seen Jean go off the rails in recent weeks – seemingly suffering from a manic episode of her bipolar disorder.

Mostly due to her bipolar disorder, Jean (played by actress Gillian Wright) has been known for her complicated relationship with both of her children, Sean and Stacey.
Coming up on the BBC One soap, Stacey (portrayed by Lacey Turner) is concerned when Jean reveals she is planning a surprise for the children.
Following Gray’s downfall, and as the truth about Kush’s death came to light, Jean then puts pressure on Stacey to come clean to Arthur.
Arthur is Kush and Stacey’s son but was adopted by the latter’s former husband, Martin.

Later on, Jean blocks the market by purchasing a bouncy castle for all the kids, which leaves Martin just as worried.
Things only get worse when Stacey spots Jean on the bouncy castle.
Jean accidentally hurts Arthur and embarrasses herself – until Harvey Monroe joins her on the bouncy castle.
Stacey is frustrated that Harvey doesn’t seem to understand her mother’s condition and bans her mother from being alone with the children until she sees a doctor.
