In last night’s episode of EastEnders (Thursday, September 7), Lily found out about Theo Hawthorne’s stalking of Stacey.
Later on, Theo then made a phone call and asked to put an offer in for the house next door to the Slaters.
Now, EastEnders fans have been left horrified by Theo’s next move, branding him ‘the scariest soap villain ever.’
EastEnders: Theo won’t leave Stacey alone
Last night, Lily and Ricky included Theo in a group chat so that people could give them baby gifts for Charli.
Theo later turned up at the hospital with his gift and was met with a panicked Lily wandering the hospital corridors with Charli.
Theo helped Lily look after baby Charli whilst Stacey was nowhere to be seen. He then told Lily that he had come to say goodbye.
Spinning some lies about Stacey, he told Lily that he’d fallen out with her because she was carrying on with her SecretCam work. He’d rowed with her because he thought that she was putting Lily in danger.
However, Stacey soon spotted him and told him to leave Charli alone. She then told Lily that Theo had been stalking her.
Lily was horrified and panicked that he would come back and harm her and Charli but Jack managed to warn him off.
When the Slaters returned home with baby Charli, Theo waited outside in his car and made a phone call. He asked to put an offer in and rent the house next door to Stacey’s.

EastEnders: Will the police deal with Theo?
At the moment, the police aren’t able to do anything about Theo and there’s no hard evidence against him.
But, as he tries to move into the house next door to Stacey’s, will the police be able to do something? Is Stacey in major danger?
