EastEnders fans work out Emma is not Lolas mum as they expose identity twist

2023-02-14

Soap fans believe they've cracked the case that is Patsy Kensit's EastEnders character.

The former Emmerdale actress debuted as Lola Pierce's biological mum Emma Harding over the New Year, originally hiding behind the alias of Nicole before Lola discovered the truth.

Facing the bleak reality of an incurable brain tumour, Lola has been spending as much time as she can with Emma, but after missing the majority of her own daughter Lexi's presentation, she's trying to cut down on their meetings.

However, Emma hasn't taken the news too well, planting a secret message in Lexi's locket when her dying mum's back was turned. It consisted of a mysterious number, which has now inspired online conspiracy theorists to get their thinking caps on.

"I don't think she's Lola's mum. She's definitely hiding something," tweeted one EastEnders viewer, before a second and third added: "She's not Lola's mother" and "Are we even sure if she is definitely Lola's mum?"

The going assumption is that Emma is actually in town to kidnap Lexi once Lola passes away.

"Yeah Emma is definitely gonna kidnap Lexi after Lola's death", "The way Emma whispered in Lexi's ear just then was very suspicious. I think Emma will kidnap Lexi at some point" and "Emma is defo gonna kidnap Lexi to get her away from the Mitchells #EastEnders," wrote another trio of fans.

Meanwhile, actress Patsy recently announced via Instagram that she's completed her guest stint on the BBC soap.

Next to a selection of excited airport photos, the 54 year old penned: "We're leaving on a jet plane! Don't know when I’ll be back again… Going to the heat.

"Great news this Friday that my severe chest infection I've nursed since December has now been diagnosed and I'm on the right antibiotics and need to convalesce for a bit and will be right back on my feet!!! cannot thank my amazing cast members at the simply awesome experience I've had working on @bbceastenders for being so kind and loving to me.

"Big thank you to the BBC the producers writers crew and the EE family. Costume makeup AD's Ang at the help desk.. Jamie and Danielle for making me laugh my arse off everyday. I love you both… Emma Barton.. so so many people…. A new adventure begins."

Could we be staring a twist right in the face, with Emma smuggling Lexi abroad?

EastEnders airs Monday to Thursday at 7:30pm on BBC One, while fans can also catch up on iPlayer.
