Stacey Slater is set to face a new horror in the Theo Hawthorne stalking storyline on EastEnders.

Stacey has been through a harrowing ordeal with Theo recently, the latter of whom initially gained the trust of the Slaters as he offered to be Lily's private tutor.

This was all while Theo was secretly paying Stacey for adult content, and he grew even more sadistic by sending Stacey anonymous threatening messages, all while pretending to be a shoulder for her to cry on.

Theo was eventually caught out by Stacey, Martin Fowler and Eve Unwin, with dramatic scenes seeing Theo holding Stacey captive in the kitchen while Lily was giving birth next door.

Cop Jack Branning recently promised to take action against Theo, despite Stacey and Martin previously talking him out of doing so over fears of scaring Stacey's stalker off.

However, she faced a big setback after learning Theo bought the flat next to No 31, and Jack offered to help get an order of protection against him, and would be on hand in case Theo tried any threatening behaviour.

In new scenes set to air next week on the soap, Billy Mitchell is left shocked when he gets sent some raunchy pictures supposedly from 'Stacey', though Martin realises that Theo is the one actually behind it.

This leaves Stacey mortified as Martin and Kat Slater rally around her, though she isn't sure how she will be able to deal with her stalker. As such, Stacey realises she may have to call upon the community to help her.

EastEnders airs on Mondays - Thursdays at 7.30pm on BBC One. The show also streams on BBC iPlayer.

A personal assistant convicted of killing and dismembering his former tech entrepreneur boss after stealing about $400,000 from him was sentenced Tuesday to 40 years to life in prison, Manhattan's district attorney said. Tyrese Haspil, 25, was found guilty in June of murder, grand larceny and other charges in the 2020 death of his former boss, Fahim Saleh. Prosecutors said Haspil had been hired as an assistant for Saleh, whose ventures included a ride-hailing motorcycle startup in Nigeria, but quickly began to siphon money from Saleh's businesses.
