Yesterday’s episode saw Mel, played by Tamzin Outhwaite, head over to the Mitchell household to make up with the clan, but fans were convinced that they noticed her growing suspicious of Sharon (Letitia Dean) and Keanu’s (Danny Walters) relationship.
Fans became riled up after Mel spotted Keanu, who has been having an affair with Sharon, react to Lola accidentally knocking into Sharon’s baby bump.
Mel notices as Danny jumps up and exclaims ‘watch it’ and then watches him and Sharon go for an intimate chat in the kitchen.
And viewers watching at home were convinced that they could see her putting things together in her head.
Fans rushed to Twitter to write their thoughts on the juicy episode, expressing their excitement at what might happen next, as characters in the square believe that Phil Mitchell is the father of the child.

‘Much of it will circulate around a very complicated and messy love affair,’ she continued, ‘so expect some major Sheanu drama as it all explodes….but we’ve got some twists and surprises in that story which last right through to New Year.’
