EastEnders fans are convinced someone close to Anna Knight is linked to her mugging! Two shocking fan theories predict that either Anna’s mum, Cindy, or her brother, Junior, arranged for the young woman to be attacked in Albert Square!
But why would Anna’s family turn on her like that? And if either EastEnders theory is true, what would George do if he finds out?!
Anna mugged in EastEnders
Anna was waiting for sister Gina, and chatting to brother Junior on the phone, when she was pushed over by a masked man, who stole her bag and left her grazed and shaken.
And now Cindy’s making the most of the opportunity to get closer to George as she shows concern for her daughter.
While Junior seems to be lurking round Walford and generally acting suspicious.
So it’s no surprise the EastEnders viewers are convinced there is more to Anna’s mugging than meets the eye.
Fans react
Some fans reckon Cindy was the brains behind the brawn.
“Getting closer to Anna could be the only way she can remain close to George,” mused one viewer, while another said Cindy was “taking full advantage” of the drama.
“I have a feeling Cindy paid the man to get Anna mugged,” suggested another suspicious fan.

Anyone else think that Cindy might have stage-managed Anna’s mugging? She certainly seemed to be taking full advantage of the emotional fallout when she was attempting to scale the north face of Mount George tonight…

I just have a feeling that Cindy is linked into this and if I am right I so hope she is caught out. I have a feeling Cindy paid the man to get Anna mugged to just get back at Elaine with George and get closer to him.

But Cindy isn’t the only person the viewers are suspicious about. Other fans think the mugging could have been arranged by George’s son, Junior.
Was the mugging arranged by Cindy or George Junior #Eastenders

A mugging must’ve been terrifying for Anna but isn’t Junior being a tad OTT, wanting to accompany her every move ? Something tells me he may know something … #EastEnders

“Something tells me he may know something…” one fan suggested.
Could Anna’s mugging be even more sinister than it first appeared? What do you think?
