It was part of Suki's plan to take and raise Avani's baby as her own as a second chance for motherhood.
But when Eve discovered the truth - she told Avani's parents Ravi and Priya, and the Panesar family.
The family reeled from the shock of what Suki did - but quickly confronted her.
And when Suki realised Eve had been the one to expose her after discovering what Avani really wanted, she was backed into a corner.
She tried desperately to manipulate Ravi by using her money to offer to save Walford East - but that failed.
Priya slapped her after finding out her plan was to stall Avani until it was too late for a termination.
But it was Eve who was done with Suki.
'There's been too many lies,' said Eve as she walked off to pack her bags.
However while Eve was busy, Avani came to Suki, bleeding.
She rushed her to hospital and the pair had a touching moment as Suki reassured her that none of this was her fault.
EastEnders Avani in heartbreaking baby twist - leaving Suki devastated
But as Suki arrived home she was confronted by the sight of Eve with her bags packed.
Eve told her: 'I think we need some space.'
And she wasn't alone as Vinnie also packed his bags, and Nugget was collecting his mum's stuff too.
Eve told her: 'I love you but I don't think you realise just how message up all of this is, all of the secrets.
'I was more worried about you finding out than them, I was worried about what you'd do to try and stop it. It's not normal. It's really not normal.
'And I can't believe that I let you convince me that we could raise this baby. I don't know whether you really mean it or whether you just saw a weakness in me.'
Darkest soap storylines
Over the years the likes of EastEnders, Emmerdale and Coronation Street have all tried to try outdo each other with their outlandish plots in a bid to keep us tuning in each week. But here are some of the darkest that had fans in shock...
EastEnders: Tony grooming Whitney (2008-2009) - Tony King first appeared in Albert Square in 2008 as the boyfriend of Bianca, played by Patsy Palmer. But it was quickly revealed he was a paedophile who had been grooming vulnerable Whitney, Bianca's adopted stepdaughter from a previous relationship, since she was 12. The shocking storyline attracted more than 200 complaints within a week of it beginning. Whitney waited until her 16th birthday to reveal the truth to a horrified Bianca, who called the police.
Emmerdale: Holly's drug addiction and shock death (2010-2016) - In 2010, Holly Barton (played by Sophie Powles) became Emmerdale's first teenage drug addict. The shocking storyline saw her taking cocaine on a night out before developing a deadly heroin habit. Parents John and Moira desperately tried to help get their daughter clean but when Holly returned in 2016, following a four-year absence, she quickly relapsed. Fans were left stunned and heartbroken when distraught Moira found Holly dead in her bed from a heroin overdose.
Hollyoaks: Luke's rape (2000) - Actor Gary Lucy was just 17 when he took on this groundbreaking storyline, which saw his character Luke Morgan become soap's first male rape victim. Luke had endured a long-running bullying campaign by football rival Mark Gibbs - who raped him after Luke stood up to him. Luke was left suicidal following the brutal attack, before opening up to his brother Adam. Gibbs was sentenced to eight years in prison. Gary won the Best Actor gong at the British Soap Awards in 2000 for his performance.
Coronation Street: Evil Richard Hillman (2001-2003) - Just a mere mention of 'Richard Hillman' is enough to send a shiver down the spines of soap fans. He is often ranked one of the most evil soap villains and it's not hard to see why. The smooth-talking financial adviser bashed his ex-wife Patricia over the head with a shovel. In a bid to keep his mother-in-law Audrey quiet, he set fire to her house. And when Maxine caught him trying to murder Emily Bishop, he took a crowbar to her head. He made his exit from the cobbles in 2003 when he drove Gail Platt, played by Helen Worth, and her family into the canal. They survived, but he didn't.
Breaking down Eve asked: 'Why would you open me up to that hurt?'
Suki said a simple 'I'm sorry' that stopped Eve in her tracks.
But it wasn't enough and Eve left telling her: 'I don't know what we've got left.'
Eve walked out the door, but has she left Walford for good? Or will she be back?

Bollywood-inspired 'A Christmas Carol' will feature an anti-refugee Scrooge - and star Boy George, Eva Longoria and Danny Dyer
A Bollywood-inspired adaptation of A Christmas Carol will star a version of Ebenezer Scrooge who 'despises refugees', the director has revealed. The musical, which is directed by Gurinder Chadha and based on the 1843 novella by Charles Dickens, will feature a 'British-Indian' man named Sood as the lead character. He is described as a wealthy man who hates poor people and refugees on the basis they 'haven't worked as hard as him to get where he is'. The film, called Christmas Karma, is due for release in November this year and will star Kunal Nayyar, Boy George, Eva Longoria, Hugh Bonneville and Billy Porter. EastEnders actor Danny Dyer also has a part in the musical as a London cab driver and was spotted wearing a red Christmas jumper during filming in May last year. Ms Chadha said according to The Telegraph: 'Our Scrooge, called Sood, is a rich British Indian who despises poor people and refugees in particular. 'Sood has decided that immense wealth brings him status and standing, so to hell with the poor, unemployed and disenfranchised who didn't work as hard as him to get where he is.' The director, who is known for Bend It Like Beckham and Bride and Prejudice, said the inspiration for the modern-day musical came from politicians in Britain today. She added that Christmas Karma, which is set in London, is a celebration of 'all of modern Britain's communities and cultures'. Ms Chadha explained that her version is 'very true to the original text and sentiment' and aims to teach viewers how prejudice in society still exists. 'A hundred and eighty-two years later, Dickens' novella still resonates globally in today's sometimes harsh world,' she said. A Christmas Carol traditionally recounts the story of Ebenezer Scrooge - a miserable old man who is visited by a series of ghosts. He is subsequently transformed into a kinder and more empathetic character. Nayyar, who will play the protagonist in Ms Chadha's musical, is known for his role as Raj Koothrappali in the US sitcom The Big Bang Theory. Meanwhile, Boy George will play the Ghost of Christmas Future and Paddington's Hugh Bonneville will take on the role of the Ghost of Jacob Marley. The film, called Christmas Karma, is due for release in November this year and will star Kunal Nayyar, Boy George (left), Eva Longoria (right), Hugh Bonneville and Billy Porter Nayyar, who will play the protagonist in Ms Chadha's musical, is known for his role as Raj Koothrappali in the US sitcom The Big Bang Theory Christmas Karma is the latest in a series of controversial remakes of Dickens' work. In 2019, the BBC's version of A Christmas Carol was slammed by viewers for tampering with the traditional dialogue. Those tuning into episode one of the three-part drama were shocked when lead character Ebeneezer Scrooge [played by Guy Pearce] dropped the F-bomb. The mini-series was written by Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight. It shocked fans from the off, opening with a scene in which a young boy urinates on the grave of Jacob Marley, calling him 'a skinflint b*****d'. Claire Tomalin, who wrote a celebrated biography of Dickens, said at the time: 'I don't think he would have been very pleased. 'Dickens didn't need people urinating on graves. He reached people through the power of his words and his imagination.'
