  • Twinnie-Lee Moore confirms Jade’s future on the show after terrifying April scenes

    Twinnie-Lee Moore confirms Jade’s future on the show after terrifying April scenes

    Emmerdale star Twinnie-Lee Moore has confirmed Jade’s future on the soap following tonight’s episode – in which she kidnapped young April Windsor. This came as she attempted to reclaim the money stolen by Mack in the aftermath of the his fight with Billy.

    Believing that Ross had her cash, Jade appeared in the village this week to make ominous threats. After implying that she’d be going after his family, Jade struck – kidnapping April.

    After sending a video message showing a bound and gagged April in the back of her car, menacing Jade demanded to see Ross. She then summoned him to the same multi-storey car park where he’d once watched Donna die.

    As Ross begged for April’s life, Jade’s thugs dangled the terrified teenager off that very same roof. Ross managed to save a traumatised April, but wrathful Jade and her thugs are still on the loose.

    But how much longer is Jade sticking around?

    Twinnie-Lee Moore reveals Jade’s future on Emmerdale

    During an interview on Sunday Brunch this weekend, actor Twinnie-Lee Moore, who plays Jade, revealed how long her character will be sticking around.

    “It’s been a really fun character to play. She’s an underground boxing promoter. She’s been fun to play – a good baddie” she told hosts Tim Lovejoy and Simon Rimmer.

    When asked whether she’d be in the soap long-term, Twinnie replied: “Well… ten episodes, I’ve done.”

    However, she wouldn’t rule out a future return, saying: “I don’t know. Who knows?” Good news for fans of the character – who previously described her brand of villainy as ‘iconic.’

    With Twinnie currently dividing her time between the Emmerdale set and Nashville – where she currently lives and works as a musician – it seems that Jade’s exit from the soap is imminent.

    Jade’s got her money – but what more carnage will she cause before Twinnie leaves again?

  • Emmerdale star Michael Parr rushed to hospital after ‘hallucinating for days’

    Emmerdale star Michael Parr rushed to hospital after ‘hallucinating for days’

    Emmerdale star Michael Parr has revealed how he was rushed to hospital following a serious illness which had him ‘hallucinating’ for four days. The actor, who plays badboy Ross Barton, was filming a role in India two years ago.

    It was there that he was struck down after crushing a nerve while in the gym. Speaking to The Mirror, he revealed:  “It was terrifying; it was by far the worst pain I’ve felt in my entire life.

    “The injury froze me and I couldn’t move,” he says. “I was permanently in bed and bent over. It even impacted my breathing.”

    He continued: “My immediate thought was that I was going to be like that for the rest of my life. The panic really set in that I’d done myself some permanent damage.”

    However the worst was yet to come…

    Emmerdale star Michael Parr reveals hospital horror amid hallucinations

    It was while Michael was already bedbound with nerve damage when a colleague found him delirious and hallucinating his his hotel room. Suspected of having Legionnaires disease, doctors rushed Michael to hospital, where he began treatment.

    “I dropped about 20lb in four days and my cheekbones were starting to protrude,” he said.

    “I’d been in my room hallucinating for four days. I didn’t know what was going on. I was delirious. I’m a massive chess player. I was so out of it I kept thinking I was a chess piece.”

    He added: “Being taken to hospital in a foreign country is always scary, but especially when you can’t communicate with the doctors,”

    Michael’s Emmerdale comeback as Ross Barton makes his return

    Thankfully, Michael made a full recovery. The actor is now back as Ross after initially leaving in 2018. Ross’s return came as Billy entered a dangerous bareknuckle boxing ring – finding a menacing Ross waiting for him.

    Ross and Billy made an enemy of fight promoter Jade. She didn’t appreciate Billy ruining things by sucker-punching Ross. She arranged a rematch, but that fell apart too when the police got involved.

    And, as Mack took the opportunity to take her cash for himself, Ross was left holding the (empty) bag. Determined to get her money back, Jade held Ross responsible.

    And, as she resorts to increasingly violent measures, Jade kidnaps April Windsor in Emmerdale tonight.

    Will Ross be able to save April before Jade does something terrible?

  • Aaron and John need to split up, fans insist

    Aaron and John need to split up, fans insist

    Fans of Emmerdale have shared their distaste for Aaron and John as a couple… once again demanding that they split up before their relationship goes any further.

    This follows last night’s episode (airing Wednesday, November 4), in which John could be seen briefly as Ross popped around to see Aaron and Mack.

    After sending Ross packing, John headed off too. It was then revealed that Mack was the one who took Jade’s money.

    However, fans were more distracted by the presence of John, reminding them of a relationship that, for many, is one of the soap’s least-liked pairings.

    Emmerdale fans slam John and Aaron as they demand ‘Robron’ returns

    Writing on the social media site X, fans shared their disappointment that the soap was continuing to plough ahead with Aaron and John’s relationship.

    Many, of course, are still holding out for the reunion of ‘Robron’ – Aaron and ex-husband Robert.

    “Many of us want Robert back in Ryan Hawley’s face. We don’t care about John and Aaron as ‘couple’ nor about John as character. I don’t know what Emmerdale was waiting for? good buzz? there is only negativity and boredom. Break them up and give Aaron a better story,” said one fan.

    “Can’t stand John and Aaron together they just don’t have chemistry imo,” claimed another.

    “I think Aaron will feature in one if not two storylines the first will probably be the continuation of Ross’s boxing storyline and the second will have to do with Chas and her new/old romance and it’s aftermath. Because unless Robert returns he and John will be boring,” said a third.

    “As far as we like Aaron,we know that he would never have been with John knowing that he is a Sugden, I still don’t know why they are together, because like everything happens off screen,” agreed another.

    Emmerdale spoilers: Love is in the air

    This comes as recent Emmerdale spoilers have revealed that Aaron and John will confess their love during an upcoming camping trip.

    After John takes Aaron out on a getaway in the woods, their relationship deepens. It’s then that the pair admit their love for each other.

    Buckle up, John and Aaron haters!

  • Fans mock Bob’s appearance as he debuts new look: ‘is he off duck hunting?’

    Fans mock Bob’s appearance as he debuts new look: ‘is he off duck hunting?’

    Fans of Emmerdale were left shocked by Bob Hope‘s new look in last night’s episode of the soap. This came as he showed off a new jacket while advising Brenda on her relationship with Eric.

    As Brenda fretted that Eric only wanted to marry her due to side-effects of the medication, Bob provided a sympathetic ear, listening patiently as she explained her worries. After all, if the meds had caused him to throw all their money into a cryptocurrency scheme, who was to say it hadn’t also been behind his proposal?

    Bob was quick to put Brenda at ease, but fans were more distracted by the coat he was wearing throughout the scene.

    The rain jacket – adorned with an Earthy-coloured camouflage pattern – had fans taking to social media in their droves to blast Bob’s new look.

    Emmerdale fans make jokes as Bob steps out in controversial jacket

    Writing on X as the episode aired, fans shared their thoughts on Bob’s coat.

    “Bob’s going to using his new T.A jacket to go on the pull before long,” joked one fan.

    “Is Bob off to do a survival course? Well he lives in Emmerdale – so it could come in handy,” said another.

    “Has Bob joined the Army all of a sudden?” asked a third.

    “Is Bob off duck hunting?!” a fourth laughed.

    “Bob living in a bush on the home farm estate?” another said.

    Bob talks some sense into Pollard

    His fashion choices may have been questionable, but Bob was successful in getting through to Eric – advising him to sell the shop in the hope of keeping Brenda.

    Pollard seemed to have seen sense following his talking-to from Bob. And, as the episode ended, Eric made a concerted effort to make things right with Brenda.

    Nice job Bob!

  • What happened between Ruby and her dad? From abuse to pregnancy, all the theories over why Ruby is so scared of him

    What happened between Ruby and her dad? From abuse to pregnancy, all the theories over why Ruby is so scared of him

    A terrible family reunion continued to unfold for Ruby on Emmerdale this week, as the return of estranged dad Anthony Fox continued to play havoc with her emotions.

    In last night’s episode (airing Wednesday, December 4), Ruby was ambushed by Anthony and Steph, who were determined to have her hear him out. Ruby was stoic as ever, putting up with this impromptu family gathering, and appearing to hear out her dad’s apologies.

    However, as the episode ended, a tearful Ruby fled from the house – pretending that she needed to nip to the shops – her father’s words reverberating in her head. As she suffered a panic attack outside, it became clear that there’s more to their animosity than mere bad blood.

    But what really happened between Ruby and her father?

    Emmerdale fans predict Anthony abused Ruby

    A prevailing theory, and one that Ruby‘s reaction last night would seem to back up – is that Anthony abused his daughter. Many viewers have suggested that this could be the case, writing on social media to shar their theories.

    “I think Ruby has been abused by her dad in the past,” wrote one viewer on X.

    “I still think ruby been abused by her dad,” said another.

    He’s Steph’s father

    Taking the dark theory one step further, many have wondered whether Steph could be his daughter.

    “Did Ruby’s Dad abuse her? and is Steph her Dad’s child?” asked one fan.

    “Ruby dad, is he Steph’s dad too?” asked another.

    “My heart is breaking for Ruby right now. She’s got so much going on and I don’t trust her dad at all. Actually think her dad is Steph’s dad too,” wrote a third.

    Abused by her mother

    If not Anthony himself, others think that he could have been party to Ruby’s abuse by another – in this case her mum, Helen. Again, this might make sense given Ruby’s reaction to learning that her mother was dying earlier this year.

    “I’m starting to think she was abused in one way or another by her Mum, and maybe her Dad knew about it?” suggested one viewer.

    Ruby clearly has no love for either parent. But why?

    Emmerdale fans predict cover-up between Ruby and Anthony

    Recent spoilers have revealed that a flashback will detail exactly what happened between Ruby and her dad. This includes the presence of a lad named ‘Rob’ who might hold the key to Ruby’s trauma.

    “My theory is that her parents invited someone to her 16th party to sway her from Caleb. She rejects him and he assaults her? Maybe she told her parents but they covered it up because he’s from a ‘decent’ family or something?” wrote one fan on Reddit.

    “I’m guessing Anthony doesn’t know what happened to Ruby, maybe ‘Rob’ abused her after Anthony had set him up with her,” another viewer suggested.

    Why do you think Ruby is so frightened of her dad?

    1. Jade kidnaps April

    Frustrated after Marlon tells her she can’t go into town after school, April accepts a lift from the apparently friendly Jade. Not long after, she makes a video call to Ross revealing that she’s kidnapped April.

    Telling Billy that he needs to go alone, Ross borrows his car and heads out to rescue April – in spite of the fact he doesn’t have Jade’s money. Getting a pin from Jade, Ross is filled with dread as she directs him to a place he knows all too well… the multi-storey car park where Donna died.

    Arriving at the car park, Ross is horrified to find April, one of Jade’s thugs dangling her over the edge of the car park roof. As Jade continues to demand money that Ross doesn’t have, April’s life hangs in the balance.

  • Daisy Campbell reveals reality tv career hopes amid soap exit

    Daisy Campbell reveals reality tv career hopes amid soap exit

    Emmerdale star Daisy Campbell has revealed what she hopes to do after she leaves the soap this year. Speaking about her upcoming exit, the actor has revealed how she hopes to take part in one of the BBC’s biggest reality TV shows.

    It was revealed earlier this year thar Daisy, who plays Amelia Spencer on the soap, has been axed. She will exit the dales in scenes airing over Christmas – following Amelia’s part in Tom’s abusing wife Belle.

    Recent scenes saw Amelia learn the truth about boyfriend Tom. This came as she finally realised that he was responsible for the abuse and coercive control of wife Belle.

    Until now, Amelia had believed all of Tom’s lies, including his claims that Belle had been the real monster in their relationship.

    Amelia sees the truth as Tom is exposed

    Tom’s carefully stacked house of cards all came crashing down when the police managed to recover evidence from Tom’s tablet. And this all backed up Belle’s version of events.

    As Tom attempted to flee, Amelia realised he hadn’t been entirely honest with her. In the Woolpack, she revealed how he’d fled the country. Thankfully, Belle had other plans – and the police arrested Tom, fake passport in hand.

    With Daisy’s exit scenes as Amelia due to air in the coming weeks, she’s already spoken out on what she hopes to do next.

    Daisy Campbell reveals plans after Emmerdale exit

    Speaking on her plans for the future, Daisy said: “There’s so much I want to do. I really want to do Strictly, like that’s one thing I really want to do next year because I’m a dancer. I’ve always danced. I’ve danced since I was three and I don’t know how to do the Salsa or anything so I think that would be really cool to learn.”

    On the possibility of entering the jungle to take part in I’m A Celebrity, Daisy revealed: “I’d really like to do it, I think it’d be fun because obviously you just don’t know how you’d be in there because you just have to really push yourself down to what you’re eating and everything.

    “But Strictly’s my one, because I just know that I would really, really enjoy the experience from dancing as a kid and everything.”

    Daisy is no stranger to reality TV, having appeared as a panelist on the Big Brother spin-off Late & Live last month.

    But will Daisy’s post-Emmerdale dreams come true?

  • Daisy Campbell defends naïve Amelia Spencer’s relationship with Tom amid fan backlash for her character

    Daisy Campbell defends naïve Amelia Spencer’s relationship with Tom amid fan backlash for her character

    Emmerdale star Daisy Campbell has defended ‘naive’ Amelia amid her controversial relationship with village abuser Tom King.

    Along with his uncle Jimmy, Amelia has been one of Tom’s few defenders, even as the net closed in on him and his lies.

    It all came crashing down for Tom recently (Thursday, November 28), as DS Foy arrested Tom while he tried to flee the country.

    Belle had managed to turn the tables on Tom, sneaking her phone into his bag as he gloated and threatened her. She then told the police, who tracked the device and arrested him at the ferry port.

    By now, the evidence is overwhelming – and not even Jimmy or Amelia can turn a blind eye anymore.

    Daisy Campbell defends Amelia as the police arrest Tom

    Star Daisy has revealed her own thoughts on the situation. When asked whether she thinks Amelia would know better, she said: “I think she would. I’ve had a lot of comments off people saying your character’s so annoying at the minute because she’s not seeing Tom for who he is.

    “But, I think people forget that it’s a story we’re trying to tell. He’s such a manipulator. He knows what he’s doing, and obviously he’s done it with Belle so he can do it to someone else.

    She added: “Because Amelia’s so much younger, she’s only 18, she is very vulnerable.”

    Hitting back at fan comments, Daisy said: “It frustrates me because I’m like this is the story. This is how it is. This is real life. But it does frustrate me in some areas because I’m like oh come on Amelia, you’ve got a kid now, he’s older, come on, get the cogs turning because she should know.”

    Amelia to leave Emmerdale as the Tom faces justice

    The truth is out now – but what’s next for Amelia? Daisy revealed earlier this year that she had been axed from the soap during a meeting with producers.

    Amelia is expected to leave at Christmas – as the soap wraps up Tom and Belle’s story for good.

    It’s now been revealed that Amelia will leave the village with Daz Spencer in upcoming scenes.

  • Peter working with other Tates to destroy Kim?

    Peter working with other Tates to destroy Kim?

    Fans of Emmerdale have predicted that Peter is working with other members of the Tate family to bring down Kim. The soap revealed the other night (Monday, November 25) that Will has been working with dodgy solicitor Peter in his vendetta against Kim.

    Will is having second thoughts about their plan, but Peter won’t be so easily deterred. He remains set on his plot to destroy Kim Tate.

    But is Peter working alone – and, if not, are there other Tates waiting in the wings?

    Emmerdale fans predict more Tates are behind plot to destroy Kim

    As these scenes aired, fans took to social media to share their theories about Peter and his plan for Kim.

    “All I can think of is something to do with Joseph Tate. He has beef with Kim and also a character is returning at Christmas?,” suggested one viewer in a Reddit thread.

    “Peter is going to bring other Tates in, isn’t he? Jamie or Joe coming back would be wild. Jean coming back would be MEGA Tate!,” another said.

    “Joe? Jamie? Another scorned lover?,” asked a third.

    “Could be Jamie, Joe – someone to do with Graham that he’s working for?,” another viewer asked, invoking the name of Kim’s other ex, Graham Foster.

    Who is Peter working for?

    Peter and Will’s plot to destroy Kim follows Caleb’s arrival in the village in December 2022. Soon afterwards, the soap revealed that Caleb was the long lost son of Frank Tate. He initially came to the village looking to take back what he felt was his heritage from Kim.

    Caleb’s plan ultimately came to naught, with Kim coming out victorious – and Caleb being pushed off a cliff as payback for all of his wrongdoing.

    Caleb may have been a dud, but are there other Tates waiting in the wings? Of the once mighty Emmerdale dynasty, there are certainly plenty of candidates who could be responsible.

    A popular fan theory is that her son Jamie is overdue a return – last seen in 2021, the character is currently in hiding with his daughter, Millie, having faked his own death after attempting to poison mum Kim.

    Another possible candidate is Chris Tate’s son, Joe. He hasn’t been seen since 2018, after a near-fatal run-in with Cain Dingle. Could Jamie or Joe be set to make a comeback?

  • As Kim reunites with Will, who was the ‘other love of her life?’

    As Kim reunites with Will, who was the ‘other love of her life?’

    Last night’s episode of Emmerdale saw Kim and Will finally bury the hatchet to give their relationship another go. This came as Will survived Ross’s attack – having joined forces to convince her that he’d been killed.

    In spite of Will’s deceit, the couple managed to settle their differences. After Kim admitted that she just wanted to end all the arguing, they fell into a passionate kiss – and agreed to give their marriage another go.

    And the pair remained loved-up tonight (Tuesday, November 27). As she filled Dawn in on recent events, Kim even went so far as to describe Will as one of the only two men she’d ever loved. No, we don’t see it either, but whatever floats your boat, Kim.

    But who was the other love of Kim Tate’s life?

    The ‘other’ love of Kim Tate’s life – who was Dave Glover on Emmerdale?

    Speaking to the Metro back in 2020, actor Claire King, who plays Kim Tate, revealed who she thinks first stole Kim’s heart… and no, it wasn’t her husband, Frank Tate.

    According to Claire, Dave Glover was the only man to steal Kim’s heart. A member of a local ‘roving gypsy clan,’ Dave had a steamy affair with Kim behind the back of his partner, Kathy Glover and Kim’s husband, Frank.

    During their affair, Kim fell pregnant with her son, James. It was then that Frank offered Kim £1million to leave Dave, also forbidding his love rival from contact with baby James (who he believed was his own.)

    They resumed their relationship while he was engaged to Kathy, planning to leave the village together. However, their relationship came to an abrupt end when a fire broke out in James’s nursery – trapping Dave, who later died of his injuries.

    Speaking to the Metro at the time, Claire said: “I honestly believe that he was [her true love]. I think she still believes that it was possibly Dave’s baby. Frank went to get a test done but he had to bribe them so there’s still that grey area although Jamie thinks Frank’s his father and Kim’s let that ride.”

    “I think in her heart of heart she still thinks there’s a possibility it could be his. He was definitely the love of her life up until Graham.”

    “With his death you’ve seen how affected she was by it and she’s realised she didn’t make her feelings known to him as she should have done, as she really did care for him but I doubt as much as she did for Dave, I think it’s fair to say Dave was her one.”
