EastEnders Spoilers: Could Sharon’s Old Cellmate Be Jasmine Fisher’s Mother?

EastEnders fans have come up with another wild but intriguing theory — and this one could connect Jasmine Fisher’s mysterious past straight to Sharon Watts and Cindy Beale.

It all began on Reddit, where fans speculated that Sharon’s former prison cellmate could actually be Jasmine’s mother — the same woman Cindy Beale once sent to jail. It sounds far-fetched, but in Walford, anything is possible.

Jasmine Fisher’s Mystery Deepens

Since Jasmine’s arrival in Walford, viewers have been trying to figure out her true motives. Working at the Prince Albert bar, she seems friendly on the surface, but her curious interest in Cindy Beale has raised eyebrows.

Jasmine has been asking pointed questions about Cindy — first to Oscar, then to Gina — and her fascination doesn’t feel coincidental. Now fans are wondering if her past is linked directly to Cindy’s long-hidden secrets.

One Reddit user pointed out an interesting clue: when Sharon Watts was in prison last year, her cellmate was serving a life sentence — roughly the same length of time Cindy was “dead” and missing from Walford. The timing, fans argue, fits too perfectly to ignore.EastEnders: Sharon Watts

Could Sharon’s Cellmate Be Jasmine’s Mum?

The theory suggests that Sharon’s mysterious cellmate could secretly be Jasmine’s mother — and that Cindy’s old betrayal sent her behind bars years ago. If true, Jasmine’s presence in Walford could be far from innocent.

Some fans believe Jasmine is seeking revenge on Cindy. Others think she’s just looking for answers about her family’s past. Either way, it would bring Cindy face-to-face with another ghost from her long and messy history.

Interestingly, Sharon’s cellmate wasn’t portrayed as a hardened criminal, which has sparked further curiosity. Many now think her story was intentionally left unfinished — paving the way for a major comeback.

Fans React to the Theory

The debate exploded online. “It could actually be true,” one fan wrote. “The timing fits, and it would explain why Jasmine is so drawn to Cindy.” Another replied, “It’s unlikely, but not impossible.”

Some viewers found the idea amusing. “At this point, anyone could turn out to be Jasmine’s mum,” joked one user. Another added, “Maybe Cindy didn’t just send her to prison — maybe she was hiding something even bigger.”

Others took the speculation even further. One fan suggested that Jasmine’s mother could have gone into hiding under a new identity, while another said, “Maybe this is EastEnders’ way of showing that Sharon’s prison time wasn’t just filler — it’s going to matter.”EastEnders: Cindy Beale

A Twist Worth Revisiting

If the theory turns out to be true, it would tie several eras of EastEnders together — Sharon’s imprisonment, Cindy’s dark past, and Jasmine’s mysterious arrival.

As one fan summed it up perfectly: “If Sharon’s old cellmate is Jasmine’s mum, it would bring the whole story full circle.”

Whether this twist is fact or fantasy, one thing’s certain — Walford’s secrets are never truly buried.
