EastEnders fans 'work out' identity of Stacey's new Secret Cam subscriber

EastEnders fans have 'worked out' the identity of a new Secret Cam subscriber who has promised Stacey Slater big cash payouts.

Stacey - played by Lacey Turner - turned to the OnlyFans-inspired website to try and earn some extra cash for her family. With the cost of living crisis and her daughter Lily being pregnant, things have been tough for Stacey.

She had been keen to keep things away from her family and the residents of Walford, but after one child found out about it at Lily's school, the word soon spread and Lily came charging home, confronting her mum in front of the whole family.

Stacey was horrified when Lily called her out in front of everyone, and whilst Eve knew of what was going on, the others were none the wiser. Stacey's mum Jean, in particular, really struggled with her daughter's decision but on tonight's episode, both she and Lily came to an understanding about why she chose to do it, and what it meant for them going forward.

Lily struggled when she found out some of her classmates had paid for a subscription, so Stacey vowed she would delete it so no one could find it again or see any of the content she had posted.

However, she considered the idea of doing a special live stream for one of her subscribers, who had asked for her to do the one-on-one show for him. Discussing the idea with Eve and Jean, she suggested taking the man's number and speaking to him off the platform but they were a little concerned, wondering if that might affect her safety.

Fans of the BBC One soap have now rumbled the identity of the unknown man - and are convinced it's close to home.

"That new bloke that messaged Stacey is definitely Mr Hawthorne # EastEnders," one suggested, as another added: "It’s that creepy teacher guy wanting the live stream #eastenders." A third penned: "Does anyone else think there's something fishy about Freddie's old teacher? How he looked at Bernie's phone when she was talking about Stacey's saucy account. Either he is already a 'customer' of Stacey's, or is going to be? Might become some weird stalker? #EastEnders."

Show boss Chris Clenshaw previously revealed Stacey would have to resort to something she's never done before.

Speaking about the upcoming storyline and what it means for the Slaters, he said: "Not only has Stacey been dealing with the rising cost of living, but also struggling to keep her pregnant daughter out of harm's way.

"This year Stacey finds herself doing something she’s never done before in an effort to protect her family and unborn grandchild."
