1. Ruby and Caleb struggle in Emmerdale spoilers for tonight

Steph has left her parents feeling terrified after she found Caleb’s gun. And it seems this may be the downfall, as even after their explanations, Steph doesn’t believe them.

But after Ross told Caleb that Steph is going to the police about their involvement in Anthony’s disappearance, is there anything anyone can do to stop her?

With the realisation hitting home, both Caleb and Ruby are under pressure to get Steph to change her mind. But will they succeed? Or are things about to get even more messy?

2. April refuses to go to the funeral

One thing that April has made clear since she returned is that she doesn’t want to have anything to do with the funeral of her daughter, Rebecca.

And so, Marlon and Rhona hold one without her. But both of them believe that she needs to be there for the scattering of the ashes.

They decide to bring the topic up to her, but it’s quickly clear that April doesn’t want to be involved. Will they be able to change her mind? Or will April come to regret her decision?

3. Billy is left feeling rejected in Emmerdale spoilers

Dawn is still very much on team Joe, and her husband Billy can sense that something is different. So, feeling rejected, he decides to do something about it.

Up until now, Manpreet didn’t think anyone knew about her online profile (apart from her blackmailer).

But after feeling rejected by his wife, we see Billy attempt to view it. However, due to her current situation it has been deleted.

Kim tries to talk to Dawn yet again about her affair with Joe. But Dawn refuses to listen to her, adamant that her want for Joe hasn’t gone away.

4. Tracy’s money problems continue

Nobody knows about Tracy’s money problems (apart from Leyla). And she seems keen to keep it that way, as she remains desperate to not let Vanessa find out.

However, when she gets a text from Eric asking her to meet him at the Woolpack for a chat, she immediately thinks the worst.

But what will he want to talk about? Has he discovered the truth about Tracy stealing money?

Steph to go down for Anthonyâ€™s murder after gun move? This fan theory thinks so

In last night’s episode of Emmerdale (March 11) Steph found Caleb’s gun during her search for Anthony. And now fans fear that one discovery could result in a bad outcome for Steph.

Ever since Anthony disappeared, Steph has been on the hunt for him. And she doesn’t seem to be put off by anything. Every scene she is in seems to be connected to her looking for Anthony. But so far this week, she has gotten extremely close to the truth.

Despite how adamant Steph is to find him, Caleb and Ruby are keen to keep the truth a secret. However, last night Steph found the gun Caleb was going to kill him with. So how will they get out of that one? Well, a new fan theory predicts that Steph just put herself right in the frame.

Steph refuses to give up on the truth (Credit: ITV)

What happened to Anthony?

Viewers know that Anthony was murdered by his daughter Ruby, after he sexually assaulted her when she was young.

But she isn’t the only one involved in the murder cover-up. Aaron initially believed he was the one who took the final punch on Anthony, and so John covered it up. Then Caleb was preparing to cover-up for Ruby. On top of that now Cain, Chas and Moira are all in on it. So if the truth comes out, a lot of people will be facing the consequences.

It was only recently that John even told them all where Anthony’s body is (if you believe him). And Ruby has been taking trips out there quite a lot. So much so that Steph even followed her one day.

Despite being told by Ross that she should quit looking, Steph remained determined. And it paid off for her as she entered the correct code for the safe and found the gun.

Emmerdale Steph in the frame for the murder?

But fans believe her lifting the gun out without any gloves may actually result in her becoming the number one suspect in the case.

One fan took to X to propose the theory. They wrote: “Steph will now be in the frame for murder now that she has picked up the gun. Stupid woman.”

While it would be unlikely she would go down for murder if no body is found. And if they find Anthony they should be able to determine he wasn’t shot to death.

However, if she brings the gun straight to the police, her finger prints are all over it. So while they have nothing else to go on, Steph may just make herself look very guilty.

She may argue that she is the one who has been looking for him, and constantly going to the police to report him missing. But perhaps it could be thrown back that all along she was the one who murdered him.

Perhaps she should make the decision to not go to the police about her parents after all…

Emmerdale viewers â€˜work outâ€™ who is targeting Manpreet after new â€˜cluesâ€™

Someone in Emmerdale has been targeting Manpreet over the images she has been using online, and the only person she has turned to is Ella.

And after the last few episodes, viewers are convinced they have worked out exactly who is behind the messages. But, it’s bad news for Manpreet.

It seems many suspect that her close pal Ella isn’t being as friendly as Manpreet may think. Right now, she is viewers’ main suspect in the blackmailing case. And they have the evidence to back it up.

Viewers are suspicious of Ella (Credit: ITV)

Is Ella blackmailing Manpreet in Emmerdale?

Ever since she came to the village fans have wanted more from Ella. When we heard about her past as a murderer, viewers thought the show was going to go down the route of psycho Ella.

Then when Liam got with Chas, many suspected that may bring out her crazy side. But again, it didn’t.

Months then passed, and nothing ever came from it. So perhaps all that time Ella was actually just sitting waiting for her perfect opportunity.

Taking to X, a fan proposed the idea that Ella is the one behind the whole thing – to get revenge on Liam.

They wrote: “I think Manpreet’s blackmailer is Ella. I know she would be the obvious choice, but she is leaving. And I think it’s because she is still hurt over Liam and Chas. So, she ultimately wants to destroy the practice so he suffers.”

Other than Ella being the one Manpreet chose to open up to, she also is conveniently always around. And so, she has the perfect opportunities.

Another penned on X: “I still think it’s Ella blackmailing Manpreet. Who else could it be?”

A third user commented: “Ella definitely has something to do with this blackmailing. She is always the one finding things.”

Ella will be leaving the village soon (Credit: ITV)

What would this mean for Ella?

If it comes out that she is the blackmailer, then she can kiss goodbye to her job at the surgery. And without her job, she doesn’t have any other involvement in the village.

A while back it was reported that Paula Lane was leaving the role of Ella after one year.

The news first came after Paula put on her own Talent Spotlight page that she would finish filming Emmerdale in February.

So, if that timeline has stayed correct, that would mean we’re very close to Ella’s exit – even though some already thought she had left with her lack of appearances.

The theory of Ella being the blackmailer seems to be strong, especially as it provides her an exit storyline. But whether or not it is true, viewers have to just wait and see.

What happened in Emmerdale on Friday March 7: Manpreet opened up and Jacob broke up with Sarah

In Emmerdale Friday March 7, Manpreet finally revealed exactly what her huge secret is to Ella, but things only got worse. And when Sarah went to tell Jacob about her pregnancy, things did not go well at all.

Elsewhere Dylan was struggling with withdrawal symptoms and lashed out at April just as Marlon walked in.

And Tracy’s money problems continued to grow as she keeps stealing from Eric.

Read on for a full recap of Emmerdale tonight (March 7).

The blackmailing continues (Credit: ITV)

Manpreet reveals all in Emmerdale Friday March 7

Clearly on edge because of the text messages she has been receiving, she decided to block the number. However, this didn’t help as she soon got another one informing her that they “are not going anywhere”. It didn’t take long for Ella to work out something was going on – and Manpreet finally opened up.

She revealed that she began posting photos of herself to her social media after she and Charles broke up because she felt rejected. But when a follower suggested she got a subscription account, it became something bigger.

Now, with the messages, Manpreet is realising her career may be in complete jeopardy. And no matter how much Ella tried to reassure her, the doc wasn’t convinced. Ella then told her to delete her account – which she did.

But immediately after she got another message: “Deleting your profile won’t make a difference”. As it turns out, the blackmailer has taken screenshots of all of Manpreet’s content. Another message came in: “One word to the police and everyone will know your secret. I will be in touch.” Who is sending the messages?

Sarah confides in Charity

Charity was on her way out but quickly realised something was wrong with Sarah, who stunned her by admitting she was pregnant. She headed out to meet with Jacob but before she got the chance to tell him the news, he broke up with her.

Again, his reasoning was that he didn’t want to lose anyone else, and there was no changing his mind. Sarah returned home clearly upset and told Charity the situation.

She reminded her that Sarah will have all of the Dingles to support her no matter what she decides to do. But Sarah’s mind was already made up – she wants the baby.

April tried to help Dylan with his withdrawal (Credit: ITV)

Marlon gets frustrated as Dylan struggles

Clearly in withdrawal from the drugs, Dylan starts to lash out at April who is trying to help him. And he does it just as Marlon walks in (bad timing!). Dylan heads out and Marlon tells April that she can’t be the one to help him get clean and that he needs professional help. But April is adamant that her experience on the streets makes her the best person to help.

She even flips the situation asking Marlon what he would like to happen if it was her in that situation. While Marlon eases up on her, he heads to meet Ross (new best friends?). Ross instantly is on Marlon’s side and tells him they need to do something to get through to April.

Tracy continues to keep her secret (Credit: ITV)

Elsewhere in Emmerdale Friday March 7

It’s Vanessa’s birthday and she is missing Suzy. And when she continues to turn to Mary for support, Mary keeps her and Suzy’s secret quiet. But clearly with a guilty conscious, she decides to host small birthday celebrations for her.

Tracy can’t afford to contribute as viewers found out last night that she is stealing from the shop. And despite promising Leyla that she would stop, Tracy once again gives in.

When Victoria arrives, stopping her from telling Eric the truth, she suggests Frankie joins Harry for swimming lessons. And later signs her up with a deposit, leaving Tracy anxious about how she will pay for it.

Inside the life of Emmerdale Michelle Hardwick: From relationship with Emmerdale boss to other soap roles

Emmerdale star Michelle Hardwick has been on our screens as Vanessa Woodfield since 2012, and has been at the centre of some huge storylines.

Vanessa has been a fan-favourite for years. From her relationship with Charity to her emotional cancer storyline, fans love her. And after the recent death of her girlfriend, Suzy, she is once again thrown into centre stage. Especially as it looks set that she is going to have her heartbroken if she ever discovers the truth of Suzy and Mary.

From meeting her wife on Emmerdale, to raising their children together, let’s have a look at Michelle Hardwick’s life away from the Dales.

Michelle Hardwick acting background

In reality, soapland is actually a small place, so it’s no surprise when stars have some cross-overs.

Before getting her role on Emmerdale, Michelle actually appeared on ITV’s other soap, Coronation Street in two different minor roles, in 1997 and 1998.

But it was her character in the TV series The Royal which worked as one of Michelle’s biggest roles. She starred as the character Lizzie Hopkirk – a huge hit with the fans!

Is Michelle in a relationship?

After coming out as lesbian in July 2013, Michelle confirmed she had been in a long-term relationship with music teacher, Rosie Nicholl.

The couple went on to get married in April 2015, but began divorce proceedings two years later, in 2017.

However, Michelle has happily moved on from her previous marriage. In October 2018 she revealed that she was in a relationship with then Emmerdale producer Kate Brooks.

A few months after going public the pair announced their engagement. And in September 2019, they tied the knot.

The pair are really big on keeping fans up to date with their life together on their social media platforms.

Dealing with trolls

In a sit-down interview with OK!, Michelle admitted she got a lot of abuse online after coming out.

She said: “The root of it all is always because I’m gay. I’m a gay woman. And it’s like, ‘Lesbians shouldn’t be on this earth’.”

The trolls were so extreme that once Michelle had to call the police after receiving death threats.

She explained: “We have had a bit of trolling over the years. And there have been certain times when police have had to be called. There have been some death threats.”

Michelle’s family life

In October 2020, Michelle gave birth to her and Kate’s first son, Edward. And then in November 2022, she gave birth to their daughter.

After she had their each of their kids, she took a break from Emmerdale to enjoy time being a mum. But Michelle returned to the show, and has slotted back in naturally.

Away from her relationship, the Emmerdale star has taken part in numerous Race For Life events near her home, raising money for Cancer Research UK. She has publicly spoken about her brother’s diagnosis and recovery from skin cancer.

Is Michelle leaving Emmerdale?

As of today (Sunday March 9), there have been no reports that suggest Michelle’s time on Emmerdale is over.

However, in recent months, her wife made the decision to leave Emmerdale and move to Coronation Street.

And with Suzy’s death having just taken place a few weeks ago, it seems unlikely that she would go anywhere anytime soon. Vanessa still has a lot of storylines to share with us! And while there have been some exit announcements lately, she does not appear to be one of them.

But while we hope we aren’t losing Vanessa, it seems an exit is always a possibility in SoapLand.

Is Arthur the dad of April’s baby in Emmerdale? Fans sure they’ve spotted ‘hint’ despite him being gay

The mystery in Emmerdale of who the dad of April’s baby doesn’t seem to be a huge concern on the show. April gave her explanations and then it was dropped.

But viewers can’t help but wonder if what she said was lies, and that she did know who the dad of the baby was.

Initially there were a lot of theories, where fans believed she was covering for someone because she was scared of Marlon’s reaction. But now, some fans think the baby daddy may be closer to home..

April told everyone she didn’t know the dad (Credit: ITV)

What has April said about her baby’s dad?

When April was found after almost six-weeks of living on the streets, everyone wanted to know who got her pregnant.

Marlon, Rhona and Ross were all ready to track him down. Although, to do that they needed April to give them a name.

However, it seems that even April didn’t fully know the answer to that. As she explained that she was drunk at a party and slept with a random guy that was there.

She was scared of how it looked to everyone, but not long after it, it was never mentioned again.

But in Emmerdale this week Laurel commented on how April hasn’t been to see Arthur yet, leading some fans to wonder if this was a hint.

Arthur and April have been friends for years (Credit: ITV)

Is Arthur the dad of April’s baby in Emmerdale?

Laurel headed over to April and told her that Arthur would love to see her, and April said she would “maybe” come over for dinner some time. But the hesitation on her face was clear.

Fans took to reddit to discuss the possibility that April and Arthur may have slept together, and now she doesn’t want to face him.

One wrote: “Am I the only one who finds it odd that April has been back a month and lives about five doors away from Arthur, but she hasn’t responded to him. And she hasn’t seen him at all in that time? I think in a weird twist he might be the baby’s father.”

However, one huge issue with the theory is that Arthur is gay, and had his own coming out storyline. So if this came true, it would kind of ruin his own character arc – which others point out.

A viewer commented: “I don’t want that. I am sick of the whole ‘gay guy sleeps with a woman in a moment of madness and gets her pregnant’ storyline. It’s not realistic.”

Others have called for Arthur to begin a romance with April’s friend, Dylan.Â

Another added: “This would be infuriating. I would much rather Arthur hook up with Dylan instead. That could be a potentially good storyline for him.”

Joe’s doctor is hiding something in Emmerdale- all the theories on what he’s really after

When Emmerdale brought back Joe Tate it was clear that he was hiding a mystery illness that requires an on-call doctor. And nearly three full months later, we still don’t know what it actually is.

But recent episodes gave us more of an insight as he got progressively worse and called for his doctor. But Dr Crowley didn’t seem like any normal doctor. He has been visiting Joe in the evenings, checking up on him during the days. Anyone would think he’s the new Graham.

He told Joe that he needed to stop his affair with Dawn (hasn’t really gone to plan). And on one occasion used whatever was in Joe’s black small suitcase to make him feel temporarily better – leading viewers to believe he has kidney failure. But could the mystery doctor be in Joe’s life for another, more sinister reason?

Viewers are now suspicious about Joe’s doctors true intentions are. And even think he may be more than a doctor to him. But what exactly could he be hiding?

What is Joe’s mystery illness? (Credit: ITV)

Tate connection?

Some fans think Dr Crowley and Joe may actually be related. And if that’s true, and the doc is somehow connected to the Tate family, then maybe he is up to his own con. Could he have his own plan in motion to take over Home Farm?

Taking to a reddit thread, one fan theorised: “Something is telling me that he isn’t really a doctor, or he has ties to the Tate’s. Why would he help Joe and go to so much length and secrecy to do so? How come he only Joe has seen him?

The relationship between Joe and Crowley seems a bit closer than doctor and patient? I wonder if the reason he hasn’t been seen with other characters yet is because someone might recognise him?”

Dodgy doc

Another popular theory seems to be that he isn’t a doctor at all and is actually pretending that he is to Joe for money.

Knowing Joe, he is probably paying a lot of money for Dr Crowley. So if he finds out this whole time he hasn’t been honest with him, it will sure cause some chaos.

One fan suggested: “I think he could be conning Joe, pretending to be a doctor when he isn’t really.” And another agreed: “That would be so good. Conning the conner.”

What his exact motive would be is unknown, but are we about to find out there’s more than meets the eye?

Another fan believes this is a likely situation, and that the medication he is giving Joe may actually be making him sicker.

They wrote: “He could giving pills to Joe that are making him more ill. To ensure that Joe is dependant on him (and get money).”

What is he hiding? (Credit: ITV)

Secret relationship?

This one feels a bit of a reach. But some fans think his need for Joe and Dawn to stop their affair is actually because he is jealous.

This theory doesn’t seem too plausible considering if this was the case, Joe could have just avoided Dawn for good. So maybe even if it isn’t a proper relationship, could Dr Crowley have a crush on him?..

One fan noticed: “I wondered whether he was a lover of sorts. He uses ‘we’ a lot, but a doctor would more likely say ‘you’.”

A second viewer added: “I did think after last week that there might be a romance going on. Purely based on the way he spoke to him.”

Figment of imagination

Another popular theory is Dr Crowley actually isn’t real. And instead is just purely in Joe’s imagination.

As fans have pointed out, only Joe has ever seen him. And he seems to appear right when Joe needs him the most then disappears for a while.

The same reddit thread suggested: “It’s also a possibility that Joe is imagining him and he isn’t really there?”

It could suggest that Joe’s illness is actually deteriorating quicker than anyone would like. And maybe, he is running out of time.

Whatever his connection is, it’s time we found out the truth – before it’s too late!

Everything that didn’t make sense about the funerals for the Emmerdale ice stunt victims

It’s been a rough few weeks in the village, but the latest Emmerdale funeral news for the limo crash victims is quite strange – even for Emmerdale.

When Leyla, Amy and Suzy all lost their lives in the ice stunt, viewers expected that to be the focus for a while. And for each of them to have the huge funerals that they deserve. But it seems Emmerdale had other ideas.

From missing family members, off-screen funerals and timing arrangements, here is a round-up of every bit of madness surrounding the Emmerdale funerals.

Leyla’s own family won’t come back for her funeral (Credit: ITV)

Missing characters

When Leyla tragically lost her life, everyone expected David, Alicia or Priya to return to say goodbye to her. Because lets face it, they would not miss her funeral for anything – it doesn’t fit their characters.

However, Jacob revealed to Sarah that none of them are coming, blaming various reasons that they can’t seem to make it back. This revelation outraged viewers, who felt Leyla’s death was being brushed under a rug.

And now, on top of that, Kerry confirmed tonight that Chloe won’t be coming for Amy’s funeral.

Chloe and Amy are sisters, and bonded very closely before Chloe left the village to get away from Mackenzie. But even she would put her differences with him aside to bury her sister – she didn’t even have to bring Reuben along.

Both funerals are on the same day (Credit: ITV) ITV

Funeral days

In another shocking twist, both Leyla and Amy’s funerals are happening on the same day. And there are quite a few reasons that this is a wild move from Emmerdale.

For starters it immediately doesn’t give them their individual moments. They were two extremely large characters on the show, and by pushing their funerals on one day, the focus is spread too wide. They each deserved their own day to be remembered.

Another reason is that it makes no sense for those who are close with both of them. Their friends have to pick between them, which is a horrible decision for someone to make.

A huge example of this is poor Eric. Leyla was basically family to him, and Amy was like his adoptive daughter. For him to not be able to be at both funerals is a horrible call from Emmerdale. There is no way he would miss either of them, but now he is forced to pick.

There is no funeral in the village for Suzy (Credit: ITV)

Suzy’s off-screen funeral

While Suzy was completely underused in the soap, she was still a part of it. And an off-screen funeral isn’t something she deserved.

However, last week Vanessa confirmed that Suzy’s parents decided they wanted to bury her close to them, away from the village. And Vanessa had no say in any of it – despite being her partner.

She even admitted that inviting Mary along was “pushing it”, which is also a weird decision. Surely Suzy’s family would want anyone who loved her to come and say goodbye, including her Emmerdale friends?

Overall, it feels there is quite a lot wrong with the Emmerdale funerals for three people who deserved something more.

What happened in Emmerdale Wednesday March 5: Sarah thinks she’s pregnant and Dylan gets to stay

In Emmerdale on Wednesday (March 5) Marlon jumped to conclusions about Dylan, before realising he was massively wrong. And Jacob lost his temper at Sarah, who had a pregnancy test in her bag.

Elsewhere the mystery of Manpreet’s texts continue as the girls of the village paid tribute to those they lost in the Woolpack.

And Cain continued to get grief from Matty, who was adamant that he doesn’t deserve Moira’s forgiveness, or to be at Amy’s funeral.

Read on for a full recap of Emmerdale for Wednesday March 5.

Dylan gets another day in the village

Marlon reluctantly let Dylan come along to his, April’s and Paddy’s lunch at The Hyde, after giving him a list of hostels to spend the night at. But Dylan had already tried them, and they were full.

Before their lunch, April opens up to her friend on how she’s feeling about her baby’s death. But she was unaware that Marlon sat in the other room listening to everything she said on a baby monitor.

The three of them went to meet Paddy, and while they are there, Paddy’s phone goes missing. Marlon immediately blames Dylan, assuming that he had taken it. This only angers April more, who then gets Dylan and leaves.

Not long after that Marlon comes home apologising as Paddy found his phone in the bathroom. April angrily explains to Marlon that she would be dead if it wasn’t for Dylan. This seems to strike a nerve, as Marlon asks Rhona if he could stay another couple of nights. The pair decide as long as he has no drugs, then he can stay only for a few nights.

Jacob spirals and Sarah thinks she’s pregnant

It’s Leyla’s birthday. And Jacob decided he wanted to head back to his placement, however everyone thinks it’s too soon. This turns out to be true, as a patient arrives with the exact same injuries as Leyla and he panics.

He gets sent home, told to take time to grieve and come back in a few weeks or months. So, his next move is to get drunk. He meets up with Ritch for some beers, ignoring Sarah’s calls and Belle’s questions about the funeral.

They then head back to Jacob’s house and he had invited a bunch of people he didn’t know over for a party. It doesn’t take long before Sarah arrives, but he isn’t interested in what she has to say and forcefully gets her out of the house.

But then as she’s leaving she looks in her bag and we saw she had a pregnancy test. How will the pair cope?

Emmerdale: Vanessa lashes out at Mary

Mary has been clearly harbouring a secret about Suzy ever since she died. And in Emmerdale tonight, she went to check on Vanessa. But when she kept asking questions about the funeral, Vanessa lashed out and told her to stop. And even uninvited her.

But later, realising she had been a bit harsh, Vanessa apologised and Mary admitted Suzy meant the world to her, quickly adding “as a friend”. And she still had Suzy’s photo on her, so what is she hiding?

Matty remains annoyed at Cain

Kerry and Matty were still struggling with Amy’s death. And it didn’t help when Cain came to drop of his suit for the funeral. Matty was quick to question why Moira would have sent him, and was immediately angry when he heard Cain and his mum were giving it another go.

He told him that he knows he will never change, and ultimately hurt Moira again. But Cain was adamant that the pair are for keeps (Please keep it that way, Emmerdale).

Matty furiously tells him that he shouldn’t come to Amy’s funeral, reminding him the way he acted when he found out Amy was pregnant with Kyle. However, it was Kerry who came to his defence. She told her son-in-law that no matter what he thinks of Cain, Kyle needs him to be there.

Elsewhere in Emmerdale…

The girls of the village met up to toast Leyla, Amy and Suzy. But as they were about to pay for drinks, Vanessa spotted how much cash Tracy had in her purse. Tracy nervously told Vanessa that she was paid in cash, but is that the truth? And if not, where is she getting the money from?

And finally, Manpreet continued to get her mystery texts. She left the pub early, telling the girls that she got called in to work, but judging by the smirk on her face, that definitely wasn’t it. But what is she hiding?
