Maya has befriended Harvey (Ross Boatman), but the reason behind their unlikely bond has been questioned.

As the mystery surrounding the character’s identity and past continues, some fans believe she is linked to a past character and a past storyline on the BBC soap.

They have conspired Maya is seeking revenge on Harvey.

Upcoming scenes will see Maya tell Harvey that her husband passed away a year ago, and reveal that her husband was a taxi driver.

EastEnders viewers will know that Harvey’s racist and criminal son Aaron Monroe violently beat up a taxi driver in 2021 in a racially motivated attack leaving the man, Mr Hussain, with serious injuries.

Could Maya’s husband be Mr Hussain?

Aaron has been in prison for the past few years over his role in a bomb plot, after his dad reporting him to the police.

Could Maya be seeking revenge for the death of her husband after his attack at the hands of Harvey’s son?

Taking to X – formerly known as Twitter – one viewer questioned: “So what is Maya’s deal? Seems she is targeting Harvey.”

Another predicted: “I can’t wait till Harvey finds out that Maya Hussain was married to the cab driver Aaron attacked a few years ago.

EastEnders airs Mondays to Thursdays at 7:30pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
