Ceiling patch growing two days after bathroom leak

Plumber fixed a leak on the bath on Saturday, coming from the pipe work to the taps. The patch on the kitchen ceiling that alerted me to this was about 10cm round. Plumber believes it has been leaking a while, as all the floorboards and joists are wet underneath the bath.

Today, the patch is around 20cm, plus a small patch further along.

Is the leak not fixed, or is this a normal result of him fixing the leak and the water gradually settling before it dries?
