EastEnders spoilers follow for Wednesday’s (December 24) episode which is now available to stream on BBC iPlayer.

After months of speculation, EastEnders has seemingly confirmed who is stalking Zoe Slater (Michelle Ryan).

Zoe, as viewers know, returned to Walford in September two decades on since her last appearance, which set the stage for the mother of all reunions with estranged mum Kat (Jessie Wallace).

As longtime EastEnders fans will know, Kat wanted nothing more than to reunite and make peace with daughter Zoe, who was raised as her sister until an explosive showdown in 2001 revealed the truth.

But Zoe’s comeback proved to be anything but peaceful, with the much-loved Square favourite at the centre of scandal, chaos and conflict.

From clashing with Vicki Fowler (Alice Haig), who still hasn’t forgiven her for her role in dad Den Watts’ (Leslie Grantham) demise, to her affair with Max Branning (Jake Wood), which essentially ripped the Slaters apart, it’s safe to say that Zoe has been at the centre of all the drama.

But horror soon followed for heartbroken Zoe, who is on a mission to find her son, with a sinister stalker making her life a living hell as she grew terrified of what they might do next
