NUGGET Gulati was found alive and well after going missing for weeks and his mother Priya rocked up Walford by his side.
Tensions grow within the Panesar clan next week in EastEnders as his step-grandmother Suki starts to stand up for herself.
BBC One viewers were introduced to Nugget Gulati’s mother for the first time on Monday, October 16, 2023, as the lad was finally found alive and well after going missing for several weeks.
Sophie Khan-Levy has taken on the new role but her arrival leaves Suki Panesar (played by Balvinder Sopal) fearing for her marriage.
In scenes airing next week, both women butt heads on their different values as they both try to one up each other.
Priya then attempts to get Nish Panesar (Navin Chowdhry) on side by flirting as the pair go clothes shopping.
In later scenes, Suki is shocked at Nish’s new look, but how will he react?
Things don’t get any better between Priya and Suki as they continue to irritate each other.
Nish doesn’t help them get along and, instead, helps tension grow by giving Priya a job in the Minute Mart.
Could Suki fire her on the spot?
Diehard fans of the London-based drama will also remember that Suki herself has had her own affair with Eve Unwin (Heather Peace).
The pair kept viewers on the edge of their seats as they all rooted for “Sukeve” and both lovebirds were plotting their escape from Albert Square – but most importantly Nish’s control.
But just as things were starting to look up for both Suki and Eve, and after multiple ups and downs, the illicit couple had to call it quits.
Nish recently proved what he was capable of after finding out that Suki revealed to Nugget that Ravi was responsible for Ranveer’s death.
Desperate to get her innocent son Kheerat out of prison, she stood up to Nish in an attempt to get Ravi to pay for his actions – but the businessman brutally assaulted by putting his hand hand around her throat, unbeknownst to anybody else.
Could Priya be the nail in the coffin for the married couple?
Will Priya and Suki ever get along?
EastEnders airs from Monday to Thursday at 7.30pm on BBC One.
