EastEnders stalker Theo's next victim 'sealed' after targeting Stacey Slater

EastEnders stalker Theo Hawthorne could be about to terrorise another Walford resident.

The BBC soap villain, played by William Ellis, has been inflicting pain on the fictional London borough ever since he arrived on the block in April 2023, and by the looks of it, he's only getting started.

Last month, it was revealed that Theo was the person who had secretly been paying Stacey Slater for sexual online content. The single mum took to camming in the cost-of-living crisis, after struggling to pay her market pitch fees and electricity bills. She later quit the website but continued to offer private sessions for one client, unaware at the time of making the arrangement that the recipient of these explicit videos was Theo.

When Stacey discovered that she was performing for someone she knows, she is horrified. The parasocial relationship quickly turned sinister, with Theo trespassing into the future grandmother's home and sending her threatening text messages.

"It is clear that Theo is dangerous and will not hesitate to hurt anyone who gets in his way. There are a few characters who could be potential victims," artificial intelligence tool, Bard Al, told the Daily Star.

According to the robot, it's Stacey's wife Eve who is 'top of the list' of Theo's next targets. The high school teacher is believed to have the legal advisor on his radar, after hearing her raising her concerns to Jack Branning (Scott Malsen) in a discreet conversation.

"Theo is already obsessed with Stacey, and he may become jealous of Eve's close relationship with her," the AI continued. "He could also see Eve as a threat to his plans for Stacey."

As for how Theo intends to rattle Eve remains unknown, but according to the robot, he is "going to try to silence her" because he "knows" that she "could expose him."

Stacey's daughter, Lily, is another potential victim of Theo's. The educator tutored the 12-year-old in an attempt to get closer to her mother, suggesting that he has no qualms about stalking her either.

Stacey's ex-partner, Martin Fowler, is also vulnerable to Theo's dangerous antics. The lovable barman, played by James Bye, has made no secret of his disdain for Theo and has even confronted him over his suspicious actions in the past.

"Martin is aware of Theo's behaviour and has tried to warn Stacey about him, but she has chosen to ignore his warnings. This has only made Theo more determined to get rid of Martin so that he can have Stacey all to himself," the AI explained, after adding that Theo may even try to 'physically hurt' the EastEnders alum as part of his disturbing scheme.
