EastEnders fans were baffled on Monday’s episode (August 14th) after Bernie Taylor revealed her character’s age.
As she returned to screens in the café and engaged in her usual scenes of earwigging and inserting herself in the local Walford gossip, she announced to Molly that she’s set to welcome her 21st birthday, making her only 20-years-old.
Fans were utterly stunned, with may believing she was much older than that.

“ #eastenders is Bernie really only 20!” added a third while a fourth echoed: “Bernie is only gonna be 21 this week?!”
