‘Work out’ EastEnders fans After the betrayal by Freddie and Anna, Bobby Beale kills once again.
On EastEnders this week, Ian Beale (Adam Woodyatt) and his ‘dead’ first wife Cindy Beale (Michelle Collins) made a spectacular comeback to Albert Square.
And Bobby Beale (Clay Milner Russell), Ian’s son, may not have to deal with that as the sole shocking finding.
Bobby and Anna (Molly Rainford) have become close, and Bobby has even opened up to her about his history, including the 2014 accident murder of his sister Lucy (last portrayed by Hetti Bywater), which he committed while still a little boy.
Anna later learned that Cindy Beale was truly her mother, making the two of them half-siblings along with Lucy and Peter Beale (who is currently being portrayed by Thomas Law).
Bobby questioned Anna about their future out of fear that she would reject him, which made her strike out at him. Later in the episode, she departed the club with Bobby’s friend Freddie Slater (Bobby Brazier), as she was still reeling from learning her mother Cindy’s true identity.
When Anna tried to kiss Freddie in the fish and chip store, he hesitated because he knew how much Bobby liked Anna.
However, things became hot between the two as soon as she asserted that there was nothing going on between her and Bobby.
Will they conceal Bobby from this hot moment? Or may the teenager’s prior violence be rekindled if Cindy’s reappearance and this combine to make things too much for him? Viewers are already speculating about whether Bobby would “strike again.”
Fans have expressed their opinions on social media, with one viewer speculating that “Freddie is next on Bobby’s hitlist.”
One person commented: “Can’t wait to see Bobby go on a rampage,” and another person pondered: “The episode has me thinking will Bobby Beale strike again with either killing Ian Beale, Peter Beale, or Freddie Slater?”
When Bobby was identified as Lucy’s killer back in 2015, his bizarre behavior only got stranger while his crime was kept a secret by his family.
Viewers may recall him attacking Jane Beale (Laurie Brett), leaving her for dead, and nearly killing Dennis Rickman Jr. (played at the time by Harry Hickles).
But after confessing to the murder of Lucy in 2016, he eventually served time in a juvenile correctional facility before moving back to Walford in 2019.
He has been morally upright ever then, and his family even granted him forgiveness for killing Lucy.
But what if he went back to his old ways and tried to exact revenge on Cindy, Freddie, or even Anna? Fans will have to watch to find out.
