EastEnders: Pastor Clayton to sexually assault Yolande, new fan theory fears

Can Yolande trust Pastor Clayton?

Last night’s episode of EastEnders (Thursday, March 14), saw Yolande stand up to her fellow churchgoers after rumours about her and Pastor Clayton started to circulate.

After Yolande was made aware of these rumours, she fought back at snide remarks made by the others.

A worrying EastEnders fan theory now predicts that Pastor Clayton may sexually assault Yolande.

Yolande defended herself against the rumours

Last night, Yolande attended church with the Pastor and sat down in a group with fellow churchgoers.

One of the women had previously informed Yolande about rumours circulating round the church that she was having an affair with Pastor Clayton.

Once the group session started, the woman started making digs at Yolande before explicitly accusing her of causing Pastor Clayton’s eye to wander.

Yolande then slapped the woman in the face before explaining to Pastor Clayton that rumours had been going around about them.

Pastor Clayton told her to ignore the rumours, hoping that this wouldn’t affect their friendship.

The fan theory suggests that Pastor Clayton may attempt to sexually assault Yolande.

The fan theory on X reads: “I don’t know. I think Pastor Clayton will sexually assault Yolande.”

Another fan then suggested: “Ah I really hope not but it has crossed my mind that or he may be the next serial killer…”
