EASTENDERS' fans think they have 'rumbled' the truth behind Ravi's ex in a game-changing hidden identity twist.
The Panesar family got a shock this week when Nugget's mother Priya arrived in Albert Square – with daughter Avani in tow.
Priya's ex, Ravi, had no idea he had a teenage daughter and immediately wanted to be part of her life.
In Thursday's episode, Nish declared that Priya and Avani could move into the family home after they were evicted from their flat, meaning they are staying in Walford for the foreseeable.
However, some fans have been left distracted by the age of Aaliyah James, the actress who plays Avani.
While Avani is supposed to be 13, Aaliyah is actually 23 in real life, but now some EastEnders viewers think her casting might be part of the storyline.

They are convinced Priya is working with Avani to scam Ravi and his family.
Taking to Reddit, one viewer shared the theory, saying: "So Avani's is meant to be 14 but her actress is 23 Maybe this isn't an accident.
"Let's think about how she was introduced in the past two episodes. Wednesday: She hits on Martin. Thursday: She drinks Priya's coffee. Both of these things are her acting older than she's mean to be..
"Maybe it's hinting that she's not as young as she's pretending to be. Maybe she's just Priya's friend and not actually her daughter and they are trying to scam Ravi."

Another viewer replied: "I thought the same. I think she might be his daughter now but at first I really did think she was 18 ish and scamming Ravi along with Priya.
Meanwhile a third posted: "You know, I thought the same thing today – maybe the twist is revealed that she's actually 23 yrs old on the show and she's Priya's little sister (I could go with friend) but they're scamming Ravi (and the family)."
EastEnders airs on BBC One and is available on BBC iPlayer.
