And now in spoilers of episodes due to air next week, sparks are set to fly when Barney, played by Lewis Bridgeman, makes a shocking decision.
The Mitchell trio are the secret family of Stevie Mitchell with Teddy the brother of Billy Mitchell that Billy was unaware of.
In the episodes, set to air from Tuesday 22 October onwards, a new family feud comes to light after a misunderstanding involving 15-year-old Avani Nandra-Hart (played by 24-year-old Aaliyah James).
The daughter of Ravi Gulati and Priya Nandra-Hart has an older boyfriend who Ravi wrongly believes to be Barney.
Davinder “Nugget” Gulati catches his sister Avani texting a mysterious boy, but she begs him to keep quiet.
Later, Ravi confiscates Avani’s phone, and enlists the help of Priya to get into it.
Priya tells him there’s nothing to worry about as Avani has told her in confidence that she’s going out with Barney.
Ravi decides not to go through her messages and later gives it back before she secretly heads off to meet her boyfriend Mason on Edward Road.
When she is seen back in Albert Square with a busted lip after an altercation with him over pressure to have underage sex, Ravi believes it to be Barney.
Teddy and Ravi come to blows as Ravi decides to make a spectacle of Barney and teach him a lesson.
Avani races to the scene and forces Ravi to give up on his plans.
Outside the café, Teddy and Ravi square up to each other and as the situation escalates the police arrive.
Later at No.1, Teddy calls Harry with a plan to hit back at Ravi, with the details of their revenge yet to be revealed.
While Teddy wants to make Barney feel part of the family, his efforts fall flat and Barney makes a huge decision.
Barney can then be seen speaking to someone on the phone.
Harry spots him talking to someone and he and his dad become concerned by what they overhear.
While we’re yet to find out what they have discovered from the phone call, fans of the show will be desperate to know if Barney was speaking to his mum, Nicola Mitchell.
Teddy’s estranged wife is set to make an imminent return to the soap to try to build bridges with her two sons.
While we don’t know the exact date of her return, what is known is that Teddy has been doing all he can to hide his wealth from Nicola so she doesn’t get what she’s due in the divorce.
Does this phone call give away any more family secrets?
