EastEnders star Ben Hardy has revealed who he thinks is responsible for the death of his onscreen sister Lucy Beale.
During an interview with the Radio Times the actor, who plays Peter in the popular soap, said that he is convinced it was Ian Beale (Adam Woodyatt).
“My own personal theory is that it’s Ian Beale. I’m 100 per cent sure of that,” he explained. “But I’m almost afraid to say it in case I get it right and the writers change it. I think it was either manslaughter or an accident.”
Peter and Ian Beale (Ben Hardy and Adam Woodyatt) are both suspects in the murder.
As for whether he thinks his character would be able to forgive his father for killing his sister, he explained: “It depends on what the circumstances were.
“Whether it was accident or manslaughter – maybe he would show some sympathy. But if it was all-out murder, I think he’d want justice no matter who it was.”
It was previously reported that the identity of Lucy’s killer will be revealed in February as part of the show’s anniversary celebrations.
