BBC EastEnders fans work out Suki and Priya twist as true motive ‘exposed’

EastEnders fans have been left puzzled by Suki’s apparent ignorance when it comes to Nish and Priya flirting, but some viewers are convinced they’ve rumbled a huge twist

EastEnders fans have worked out a twist for Suki and Priya – as her true motive is exposed.

Suki has been seemingly not fussed about her husband Nish showing affection and interest towards Ravi’s ex Priya after her explosive entry to the show. Suki and Eve found themselves locked in an affair but since cooled it off. However, there’s no doubt the pair are desperate to be together, with viewers convinced it will all come to a head before the big Christmas storyline.

After Priya’s arrival, fans of the BBC soap are convinced they’ve rumbled a huge new twist as they say Suki’s motive when it becomes to Nish and Priya has been exposed, as she tries to find a way out of her controlling marriage.

In tonight’s episode, we saw Priya ask Nish if she could buy him a drink in the Queen Vic as a thank you for all his help, before awkwardly inviting Suki too. She watched them flirting, barely saying anything.

Taking to Reddit, one fan suggested: “I think Suki might inwardly hope they have an affair as it would give her ammunition to walk away from Nish and get into Eve’s heart again,” as another wrote: “And to ensure the affair, she is being territorial with Priya…. So Priya thinks she’s getting one over on Suki when Nish showers her with attention. Very clever!”

“If I was Suki I’d be going nuts about it, but then she hates him deep down, and who knows, if an affair ensues, then Suki can run off with Eve and have her happy life,” a third shared, with a fourth adding: “Suki will be pleased if she takes him off her hands.”

Sophie Khan Levy – who plays Priya on the BBC soap – said of joining the show as “troublesome” Priya: “I’m super excited to be joining the show, and I can’t wait to see what trouble Priya gets herself into! I watched EastEnders when I was growing up, so to see so many familiar faces and to walk onto the set is a dream come true.”

Executive Producer Chris Clenshaw added of their arrival: “We’re excited to introduce Priya and Avani, two women guaranteed to cause big drama in Albert Square. Little is known about Ravi and Priya’s doomed romance, but she’s a big missing piece in his past. The revelation that he’s got another child will floor Ravi, and he is set to face a big challenge in his life when he is forced to cope with such a big shock to the system. We’re delighted to welcome Sophie and Aaliyah to the EastEnders family.”
