Stacey Slater makes confession as Theo is in court in EastEnders | The Sun
THEO Hawthorne faces justice after stalking and terrorising Stacey Slater for months.
But the EastEnders favourite played by Lacey Turner shocks another Walford resident by dropping a bombshell behind closed doors.
Comeuppance could be near for Theo Hawthorne after he relentlessly harassed Stacey Slater.
The former teacher portrayed by William Ellis recently tried to rape the bap van owner before being caught red-handed by his ex-student, Freddie Slater.
Next week on BBC One, Theo has to go to court for his actions and Stacey is reeling at his multiple attempts to make contact on the day of his plea as he asks her to meet.
Stacey is reluctant, but after her daughter Lily (Lillia Turner) opens up about her worries for her mother to Ricky Branning (Frankie Day), she decides to go.

At the meet, Stacey tries to manipulate Theo into pleading guilty by promising to restart their "relationship" once he’s served his time.
However, Stacey starts to worry if she’s made the situation worse as Theo reacts badly to her suggestion.
In later scenes, Jean Slater (Gillian Wright) tries to discourage her daughter from attending Theo’s plea hearing.
But Stacey is certain that she wants to be there and bats her concerns off.

Martin Fowler (James Bye) and Jack Branning (Scott Maslen) support Stacey as she anxiously waits for Theo to give evidence.
How will the plea hearing unfold?
Later on, Jack comforts a drunken Stacey after she tearfully confesses her fears about Theo.
Jack takes Stacey back to No.27 to sober up where Sam Mitchell (Kim Medcalf), who is temporarily living there, tells him about her dislike of the Slaters.
Once alone, Jack is shocked when Stacey admits that she planted the wrench on Theo to cover up Freddie’s actions and make it look like Theo tried to attack her.
Viewers will recall that Freddie, who was struggling to cope with the revelation that his mother had been raped, lashed out at Theo, blinded by rage when he caught him trying to assault Stacey.
To Stacey's horror, Freddie brutally beat Theo and left him unconscious.
This prompted former solicitor Eve Unwin (Heather Peace) to get involved and help the pair come up with a story they could use to clear Freddie of any charges.
Stacey and Freddie went along with Eve's plan, claiming self-defence and the lad left Walford soon after.
EastEnders airs from Monday to Thursday at 7.30pm on BBC One.
