EASTENDERS fans believe Sonia will steal from millionaire Dot Branning again in order to pay her blackmailler.

Sonia is currently being blackmailed for £10,000 by the man Martin Fowler run over and left to die several weeks ago.

The guilty market stall holder came clean to Sonia, who eventually tracked down the victim - George - in the hospital she works.

However, things manage to get worse as George wakes up from his coma.

While Martin might be relieved he hasn't murdered anyone, the victim manages to connect Sonia to the Martin who hit him.

He then demands £10,000 from her.

Fans believe that Sonia will dip into Dot's millions - just like she did before Christmas.

One fan said: "We saw Ben tell Martin that they owed him, but the problem is Sonia won't tell Martin that he knows, and Martin wouldn't be able to tell her why they owe him a favour, so it's either going to end up with Sonia stealing from Dot, it being forgotten about in 3 weeks or Sonia finding out about Martin and Keanu."

Another said: "Only #EastEnders can have a patient Blackmail a Nurse for £10,000 like seriously is Sonia gona Nab it from Dot, ffs EastEnders Do Better."

A third remarked: "Oh my god Sonia, now you're definitely going to steal Dot's money"

 

Over Christmas, Dot was told by her bank how someone had tried to take £5,000 from her bank account.

And after a Christmas where her granddaughter Dotty Cotton accused everyone in the house from stealing from Dot, it was revealed Sonia had been the one to try to steal the money.

She made a big show of phoning the bank after Dotty went around accusing everyone of the attempted theft.

However as she was speaking on the phone, it was revealed, that she had unplugged the phone and was pretending.

She told the family the bank had explained it was Russian hackers stealing from her and not a member of her own family, but it became clear that it was in fact Sonia stealing when she logged out of Dot's bank account.
The huge amount of money is most likely from Dr Legg, who left her his entire estate.
