Since Theo Hawthorne terrorized Stacey Slater, EastEnders viewers believe they have come to the conclusion that he wasn’t acting alone. They also assume that his accomplice is well known to Albert Square locals.
Fans of the BBC soap opera EastEnders have flocked to X, formerly known as Twitter, to discuss their beliefs that the eerie Theo Hawthorne (William Ellis), who appears to be collaborating with a well-known former character to exact “revenge” on Stacey Slater (Lacey Turner), is actually doing so.
Fans observed he seemed to know quite a bit about the mother of three’s past as he was revealed to be her stalker this week, which led them to suspect he wasn’t acting alone.
They think Ruby Allen (Louisa Lytton), Stacey’s former flame and competitor, has been orchestrating everything from behind bars.
Do you agree with my opinion that Ruby and Theo might be working together? said a fan by the handle @RyanTheSoapking.
Theo can’t possibly be that astute on Stacey’s past, I think. Ruby is the only person I can envision helping Theo exact revenge on Stacey and the Slaters. (sic)
Even while @mikepriestley13 agreed that it would make a nice plot point, he wasn’t persuaded.
Interesting viewpoint. How can he know that when he’s only been in this life for a few months, he said as he mentioned all of Stacey’s ex-boyfriends in tonight’s episode. This would be an interesting turn, except he abuses women,” How could Ruby possibly have a good friendship with Theo, in my opinion? #EastEnders” (sic)
@KieranMatthewOD shared this sentiment but developed the theory further.
“Interesting Ruby hypothesis. I was taken aback by Theo’s prominence in tonight’s episode, which suggests that the storyline of his stalking may not yet be “done and dusted” and may possibly take unforeseen turns. He may continue tormenting Stacey. He asked, “Could Theo be the Christmas corpse.
A wholly different notion, though, was put up by a user going by the handle @gsw1986, and it too concerned a former character.
“I believe Ryan is doing it to try and win Lilly back, potentially. Ryan returning and maybe being the Christmas body in the Vic could come after this, which could also be connected to Whitney leaving.
After falling in love with the mother of three when she started selling explicit photographs online, Theo has been stalking her for months.
Before integrating himself into her family by providing free education for her pregnant daughter Lily (Lilia Turner), he initially became a private client of hers.
Once he had his feet firmly planted, he continued to terrorize her by sending her ominous notes and gifts.
This past week, he was eventually caught in the act when he trapped Stacey in her kitchen as Lily gave birth in the adjacent room.
The police were unable to take action despite Stacey reporting him; nonetheless, he was spotted trying to rent a flat next to the new grandmother and her family on Thursday’s episode, indicating that the tale is still very much alive.
