Last year, business owner Ravi enjoyed a relationship with Chelsea Fox, before he turned his attention to her mum Denise.

Aaron said Nish and Ravi's father and son relationship is a long way off from being mended - saying there's "unfinished business".

"There is a lot of betrayal that we will delve into."
