EastEnders fans already 'love' Stevie Mitchell as he exposes huge Nadine lie with his walking stick
EastEnders aired a massive twist during Wednesday episode (May 1) as Nadine's secret was finally revealed thanks to newcomer Stevie Mitchell.
As tensions brewed between Stevie and the rest of the Mitchell clan he found common ground with Lexi Pearce. While in the laundrette, Lexi told Stevie she didn't trust Nadine who claimed she was having Jay Brown's baby.
Lexi had tried to express her concerns about Nadine but was unheard by her stepdad, which caused a rift between them. But Stevie wasted no time protecting his great-great granddaughter and made it his mission to work Nadine out.

During a conversation with Nadine and Jay, Stevie acted the wise old man and suggested that as the pair weren't an item it was best they did a DNA test on the unborn baby. Finally seeing sense, Jay agreed while Nadine acted shifty and made a quick exit from the flat.
Later in Beale's Eels, Stevie struck up another conversation with Nadine as he stumbled upon her in a tense money exchange with her boss. Nadine was keen to keep the dodgy interaction quiet and offered Stevie money for his silence.
While Stevie initially took the money, he was certainly uneasy. As the Mitchells gathered in The Vic, the family soon turned on him with Nadine suggesting that he left the boozer.
Stevie decided to let rip on Nadine, and told her she 'can't kid a kidder' and poked at her 'pregnant' belly with his walking stick - much to the pub's horror. Jay walked over and eventually ripped out her fake belly, with the truth finally uncovered.
EastEnders fans wasted no time in taking to X to praise Stevie as he went from zero to hero in a matter of moments.
One person wrote: "Hooray for great-great-grandfather Stevie Mitchell! It takes one to know one! Never in the field of soap dramas has there been such a rapid transformation from villain to hero. Congratulations to brill actor Alan Ford as well."
A second stated: "Weren't expecting Nadine's fake pregnancy to be exposed by Stevie poking her with his walking stick #EastEnders". A third chimed in with: "Stevie poking the fake bump with his walking stick #EastEnders", followed by a string of laughing faces.
"Stevie Mitchell, an absolute great addition to the EastEnders cast. What an ending! #Eastenders What an actor", added another.
