EastEnders viewers are convinced they have uncovered the shocking truth behind Jasmine Fisher's sinister revenge plot, revealing that Cindy Beale may not be her intended target after all.
A Calculated Plan Unfolds
The dramatic week in Walford saw Michelle Collins' iconic character, Cindy Beale, hospitalised after being violently pushed down the stairs of the Prince Albert bar by her teenage employee, Jasmine Fisher. The attack came after Cindy confronted Jasmine about overhearing her revenge plans through Nigel Bates.
Cindy had become increasingly suspicious of Jasmine's motives as the teenager deliberately inserted herself into her life, taking a job at her bar and even moving into her home. These suspicions intensified when Jasmine's mother, Anita, mentioned that the girl's father came from a "dodgy family", leading Cindy to believe Jasmine was sent by relatives of Jackie Ford - a woman Cindy helped send to prison while they shared a cell.
The Real Target Revealed?
Despite overwhelming evidence pointing to Cindy as Jasmine's primary target, including the brutal staircase attack that left her unconscious and bleeding, fans are proposing an alternative theory that suggests Cindy's daughter, Cindy Williams Jr, might be the actual subject of Jasmine's vengeance.
One keen viewer took to Reddit to outline their reasoning: "It's not Cindy she wants revenge on, it's Cindy JR. She asked about Cindy's kids. She looked at Cindy's medical files to see any relation. She told Cindy she was older then she expected when they first saw each other."
Other fans quickly endorsed this theory, with several suggesting it represents a compelling twist in the ongoing storyline. Cindy Jr, the daughter of Cindy Beale and Nick Holland, was born in prison while her mother was cellmates with Jackie Ford. Though believed dead after childbirth, Cindy Sr actually entered witness protection after informing on Jackie.
Alternative Theories and Connections
Another intriguing fan theory proposes that Jasmine might actually be connected to Steven Beale's family. "Technically, she's young enough to be Steven's daughter," one fan noted, pointing out that Steven - born in 1989 - died seven years ago, while Jasmine has just turned eighteen.
Steven already has one daughter, Abi Jr, from his relationship with Abi Branning - Oscar Branning's sister. Abi Jr hasn't been seen in Walford for several years after visiting her grandfather Max in France. Interestingly, Max Branning is set to return to Walford on New Year's Day, potentially reigniting tensions with Cindy, who still blames him for his role in Steven's death.
As Cindy Beale fights for her life in hospital, the true extent of Jasmine's revenge plan remains uncertain, leaving viewers to speculate whether the teenage schemer has been targeting the wrong family member all along.
