Jacob Gallagher in Emmerdale has been part of village life since he was young lad.
Having grown up before viewers eyes, Jacob‘s had an eventful life. He’s endured family dramas, been groomed by his teacher and had an affair with his dad’s ex-girlfriend.
Born on February 28, 2003, Jacob is the biological son of Leyla Harding and Justin Gallagher. Jacob was conceived after Leyla had an affair with Justin, who was her sister Alicia’s husband.
He was adopted by Alicia who, unable to conceive, raised him as her own.
Jacob considers Alicia’s former husband, David Metcalfe, to be his dad, and refers to him as that.
He has two half-siblings, Amba and Theo Metcalfe, who no longer live in the Dales.
Jacob excelled at school and is currently in higher education studying to be a doctor.

Who plays Jacob Gallagher in Emmerdale?
Jacob Gallagher in Emmerdale is played by British actor Joe-Warren Plant. He was born on April 12, 2002, and raised in Poulton-le-Fylde by parents Warren and Steph Plant.
Joe-Warren became a student at Blackpool’s Scream Theatre School when he was four-years-old. The actor then joined the Emmerdale cast aged eight and was introduced as part of a new family.
As a youngster, Joe-Warren balanced his filming commitments with studying at Baines School in his home town.

Jacob’s arrival in Emmerdale
Jacob and Alicia arrived in the village in 2010. He was seven-years-old, but still had no idea his Auntie Leyla was actually his mum.
Alicia began dating David Metcalfe, who Jacob grew to love like a real father. In 2013, Jacob discovered Alicia wasn’t his birth mum and ran away for the night.
The truth about Leyla left Jacob angry and confused with the world, but he eventually adapted.
Bullying hell
Jacob has had an on/off friendship with local lad Noah Dingle. Noah made Jacob’s life hell in 2014 by waging a bullying campaign against him.
The nasty lad forced Jacob to vandalise Bernice Blackstock’s beauty salon and steal money from the church. Jacob got caught red-handed, but admitted to Alicia and David that Noah had forced him to do it.
The couple informed Noah’s mum, Charity Dingle, who punished her son. Jacob and Noah eventually made up and continued to be mates.

Jacob’s dramatic exit
Jacob’s world was turned upside down in 2015 after learning Alicia had been sexually assaulted by unhinged Lachlan White. In an act of revenge, Jacob trashed Home Farm.
Traumatised Alicia decided to leave the village and took Jacob to live with her in Portugal. David stayed put, and he and Jacob lost touch for a while.
A year later, Jacob sneaked back to Emmerdale without telling Alicia, but David and Leyla convinced her to let him stay.
Everything was rosy until David discovered he had testicular cancer. Too scared to tell Jacob the truth, he banished the teen back to Portugal.
Jacob was back again soon enough and was hurt to discover David had lied to him about his illness. However, he was persuaded by David’s girlfriend Tracy Shankley to stick around and help his dad. David went on to make a full recovery.

Abuse hell
Another dark period in Jacob’s life was when he fell victim to predatory Maya Stepney. She was one of his secondary school teachers and they began dating. Maya also happened to be in a relationship with David by this point.
Maya groomed Jacob and they began a secret relationship, at her request. When Jacob turned 16, Maya took his virginity.
Their affair was rumbled by Jacob’s ex Liv Flaherty, who tried to blackmail Maya for £10,000.
The truth all came out when Priya Sharma spied Jacob and Maya kissing outside a nightclub in Hotten and informed Leyla. Maya and Jacob ran away, but the police caught up with her and arrested her.
Still believing the love he and Maya had was real, it took Jacob a long while to realise he’d been abused.
Another shock was in store when Jacob and David found a baby boy on their doorstep on Christmas Day 2019. A note revealed the tot was Maya’s son, and Jacob feared he could be the father.
A DNA test later confirmed the child was David’s, and he was named Theo.

A messy love triangle
After Maya, Jacob had a one-night stand with classmate Leanna Cavanagh. He was devastated when she was murdered by Meena Jutla.
Jacob’s next romantic interest caused a storm in the village. He fell in love with Victoria Sugden, who happened to be his dad’s ex-girlfriend and nine years his senior.
After confessing their feelings for one another, the unlikely couple began a secret affair. But to make matters even more complicated, David had decided he still loved Vic and wanted her back.
When David discovered Jacob had won her heart he was sickened. Unable to forgive what he perceived to be a massive betrayal, David fled the village, leaving Jacob wracked with guilt.
Sadly the romance with Victoria wasn’t to be and she dumped him, leaving Jacob heartbroken.

This week’s Emmerdale review is sadly lacking in festive cheer! Because it really wasn’t a merry Christmas for anyone in the village. There was death, a lot of secrets, quite a bit of shouting, and generally a lot of drama!
Which is just the way we like it.
Here’s what we thought of the Christmas action in our Emmerdale review.
Joe’s back with a sassy new haircut, a secret illness, and a vendetta! (Credit: ITV)
Joe Tate’s back!
The big news this Christmas in Emmerdale was the return of Joe Tate! YAY! It was revealed that Joe was the person pulling the strings, as Will tried to escape Peter’s plan. We were delighted by the news as it always felt like there was some unfinished business when it came to Joe.
And he’s certainly come back with some secrets. He’s clearly not well and we’re desperate to know what that’s all about.
We want to know why he’s back, obviously. And why he’s turned his revenge plot from Charity to Kim (also, what’s with all these younger men harbouring hatred for Kim for YEARS? Bit odd, isn’t it?)
We’ve got a lot of questions and we know we’re going to enjoy finding out the answers.

Emmerdale review: Will’s dead (sob!)
And as if that wasn’t enough drama up at Home Farm, shortly after Will and Kim had renewed their vows, and Joe had strolled back in, Will was struck down by a heart attack.
He was struggling with chest pain, but Kim wasn’t sure he was being genuine. And in a brilliant bit of cyclical storytelling, she powdered her nose while watcihng him on the floor – just as she did with Frank.
BUT, Joe’s arrival made Kim realise Will was being truthful and snapped her into action. She desperately tried to save her husband’s life, while they waited for the paramedics, but there was nothing they – or the professionals – could do. It was a really clever callback to Kim’s evil takedown of Frank, except this time Kim was devastated. It felt like karma for her actions all those years ago.
We’re going to miss Will but we have a feeling his death is just the beginning of some even bigger drama – and it’s not looking good for Kim.
Ruby’s having a really hard time (Credit: ITV)
We’re rooting for Ruby
Emmerdale’s had some pretty sinister baddies over the years (not you, Jade), but we reckon Anthony is the most evil of all.
Poor Ruby is clearly terrified of her father. Her reaction to being left alone with him on Christmas Day was shocking and we can see why.
He’s so charming to everyone else, while making sly, pointed comments to Ruby as she quivers in fright, that it makes us shudder.
We were delighted when Cain interrupted Anthony tormenting Ruby mentally, and when he realised how scared poor Ruby was. We also loved him confiding in Ruby about his own abuse at the hands of Shadrach.
This awful storyline isn’t easy to watch, but it’s being handled brilliantly and we’re looking forward to seeing how it plays out. We’re totally invested in Ruby’s torment now. Beth Cordingly, who plays Ruby, is so clever in showing us every side of her character, even when Ruby’s friends and family can’t see it. We’re all in with this one.
April’s gone off the rails (Credit: ITV)
April’s missing in our Emmerdale review
It’s early days in April’s story, but so far, this drama doesn’t have us gripped. At the moment, everyone just seems to be doing a lot of shouting and finger pointing.
No one – not even the police – seems to be thinking clearly or rationally about where April could have gone, or why. It’s infuriating and frustrating. DS Foy would have found April by now, that’s all we’re saying.

Emmerdale tonight saw a whole load of suspicion. Marlon Dingle suspected that Jade had taken April, while Ruby was suspicious of her own father’s involvement in April’s disappearance.
Meanwhile, Billy became suspicious of Joe Tate‘s involvement in Will Taylor’s death after learning about his bad boy past.
Here’s everything that happened in Emmerdale tonight (Friday, December 27.)
Ross took Marlon to see Jade (Credit: ITV)
Marlon confronted Jade
Bob organised a search party for April, but Marlon insisted it was all for nothing and that they wasting their time because he was sure Jade had her.
The police paid Ross a visit to enquire about Jade, but were satisfied that she wasn’t a suspect. Later, Marlon went to see Ross, where Ross delivered one of his classic lines: “What the hell did you tell the police? Don’t think that I won’t give you slap just because you’ve had a stroke.” Stay charming, Ross.
Marlon demanded that Ross take him to see Jade. Jade was not pleased to see Ross and told them to get out. Marlon, however refused to leave and picked up a pipe, before telling Jade: “I need you to tell me what you’ve done with my daughter.” Brave man, taking Jade on.
Fortunately, he was saved by the police, who arrived to arrest Jade for illegal fighting and betting. They said they’d had Jade under surveillance, meaning she couldn’t have taken April.
Marlon was at a loss, as he’d been so sure that he was right. Later, he lambasted Ross, saying this was all his fault for telling April the truth about Donna. “If anything happens to her, it’s on you,” he told Ross.
Joe is back (Credit: ITV)
Joe Tate aroused suspicion in Emmerdale tonight
Following Will Taylor’s fatal heart attack, Joe covered for Kim, lying to the police that they’d been no delay in getting Will help. Tonight, Billy became suspicious of Joe and Kim’s new found closeness.
Joe Tate tried to talk to his half brother Noah Dingle in the village. But Noah was angry, telling Joe: “You let me think you were dead.”
Charity then told Joe that Noah wanted nothing to do with him, adding: “You’re a ruthless liar, who destroys innocent people to get what he wants.†Joe told her people change – “Case in point. A gold digger and petty criminal turned respectable business woman.” Way to try and make friends, Joe.
Billy witnessed the altercation and asked Charity what the deal with Joe was. She filled him in and Billy later relayed the information to Dawn.
He then shared his suspicions with Dawn. “Kim tried to kill him, that’s why he run off,” he said. “So why has she forgiven him just now? Something is off, like really off. Dawn, I have never seen your dad and Kim happier. Their vow renewal, beautiful. And he turns up and our whole world is turned upside down. Aren’t the police doing a post mortem?”
Billy then asked “What are the chances of him turning up just as your dad has a heart attack?†Dawn realised what Billy was getting at and said: “You think he murdered my dad?”
Ruby questioned Steph about Anthony (Credit: ITV)
Ruby was suspicious of her dad
During a break from searching for April, Ruby and Steph grabbed some coffee from the cafe. While there, Steph mused: “What would make a teenage girl on Christmas morning run off before opening her presents?”
This caused Ruby to ask: “Do you know where your grandad was on Christmas morning before he came over for lunch?” Steph said he had been at the B&B. Unbeknown to them, Anthony had heard the exchange.
Later, Anthony gave Ruby a vailed threat, telling her: “We do need to be careful you know. When nasty rumours start, people are forced to defend themselves and other things come out, secrets that can ruin lives. And we don’t want that, do we?”
Elsewhere in Emmerdale tonight
The villagers were mourning Will. Jimmy was devastated to hear about the death of his best friend. “How can my best mate be dead? We’re meant to be playing poker this week” Jimmy said, before recounting Will’s relationship advice – “never buy her flowers from the garage and always take all of the blame.”
Kim and Dawn were also struggling, but Joe was quick to take Kim to the side and tell her: “I saved you yesterday. You simply cannot afford to be showing any hint of guilt or regret. I need you to keep it together. It will all be fine. I will take care of everything. Trust me.” Trusting Joe Tate seems a mistake waiting to happen, but will Kim have any choice?

In Emmerdale, Will Taylor met an untimely end this week after suffering a heart attack. But fans believe Joe Tate was actually responsible for Will’s death.
Joe returned to the Dales on Christmas Day after six years away and picked up where he left off by creating drama.
After revealing to Kim Tate that her husband Will had been plotting to bring her down, Will collapsed to the floor clutching his chest. But fans think there was more to Will’s death and that Joe had a hand in it.

Will Taylor dies
During Emmerdale’s Christmas episode, Kim and Will renewed their wedding vows. Shortly after, their bubble of happiness was burst when Joe Tate made a dramatic entrance.
Joe revealed to Kim that Will had been planning revenge on her. He lied about Will’s involvement, telling Kim that Will had actually orchestrated it all by getting in touch with Kim’s son Jamie. Joe also told Kim that he and her financial advisor Peter had only gone along with the plan as a joke, to see how far Will would take it.
Kim asked to be alone with Will, where he attempted to give his version of events. But Kim wasn’t having any of it. Shortly after, Will collapsed to the floor clutching his chest. Kim ignored his pleas for help, accusing him of faking a heart attack for sympathy.
It was only when Joe returned that Kim started to help her husband. However, it was too late and by the time medics arrived at the scene, Will was pronounced dead.

Fans suspect Joe Tate in Emmerdale
After watching Will’s death, fans felt it was too much of a coincidence that Will would die so soon after Joe’s return.
Taking to X, one fan said: “Makes you wonder if Joe slipped some pills into Will’s drink.” A second fan agreed, writing: “ I think Joe put something in the wine, that caused will to get a heart attack.”
Over on Instagram, fans were in agreement, with one asking: “Who killed Will? Joe Tate?” Another fan added: “There is a twist somewhere.”
A fifth fan said: “I’m sure Joe is behind Will’s passing because the pills he is taking.”

Emmerdale aired tragic scenes this week when Will Taylor died after suffering a heart attack, but fans don’t believe he is really dead.
Will has been working with financial advisor Peter on a plot to bring Kim Tate down. However, recent scenes saw Will have second thoughts about the plan as he realised he was still in love with Kim.
After Kim discovered the truth, Will pleaded with her – a scene that ended with him clutching his chest. But is there more to it? Fans think so.

Will has a heart attack in Emmerdale
Recent weeks have seen Will hell-bent on making Kim’s life a misery as he teamed up with her financial advisor Peter to get revenge on Kim. Unbeknown to Will, Peter was also working with Joe Tate.
Although Will had changed his mind about the revenge plot, he couldn’t get out of it that easily and Joe revealed all to Kim.
However, Joe lied to Kim, telling her that Will had directly approached her son Jamie Tate for help with getting revenge. Joe also made out that he and Peter were only ever messing with Will, to see how far he’d go. Joe insisted that he was telling Kim the truth now because he had realised how important family was.
Kim asked for some time alone with her husband. Will attempted to give his version of events before suddenly collapsing holding his chest.
Kim watched on suspiciously, believing that he was faking it for sympathy. It was only when Joe returned that Kim sprung into action and attempted to help Will. But it was too late and when emergency services arrived, they pronounced him dead.
Fans believe Will is still alive (Credit: ITV)
Will Taylor fan theory
Despite the moment that medics pronounced Will dead being shown on screen, fans have predicted that he is still alive and is faking his own death.
“I’d wondered if Kim and Will are faking his death to take down Joe. Seems far fetched… however crazier things have happened,” one fan wrote on X. While another agreed, adding: “Will Taylor not dead and he faking his death again.”
A third viewer went into more detail, writing: “Mmm 2 questions, why didn’t the paramedics use the defibrillator and I thought paramedics weren’t allowed to stop until told to do so by a doctor. I might be wrong but then they might not be paramedics, Will might not be dead & the whole thing is a plot to blackmail Kim?”
A fourth fan added: “Interesting that Kim didn’t put much of an effort with the chest compressions, no mouth to mouth nor did we see the ambulance crew shock Will. Billy didn’t look too surprised either. There could be a twist to this storyline?”
Another fan wrote: “Said all along Will won’t be dead. Him , Joe and Jamie in a plot together to bring Kim down. Joe didn’t phone ambulance, paramedics were less than useless, nor did they declare death properly. Very fishy !” while a sixth viewer said: “Don’t think he dead. All part of joe’s plan with Peter.”

April Windsor disappeared from her home on Christmas Day in Emmerdale and a new fan theory has suggested Anthony Fox could be responsible.
It has been a difficult time for April of late, after discovering the truth about how her mother Donna Windsor died. Her behaviour has worsened and she has been bunking off school and drinking alcohol.
Her dad Marlon has struggled to cope and prior to his daughter going missing, he snapped at her, telling her he wished she’d just fade into the background.
So has April simply run away, or is there something more sinister going on?

April goes missing
On Christmas Day morning, Marlon Dingle went to wake his young daughter only to discover that she wasn’t there. April was later seen waiting for a mystery person before climbing into the back of a car.
It’s been a difficult few weeks for the teenager. At the start of the month, she was kidnapped by Ross Barton‘s enemy Jade. After rescuing April, Ross then told her the devastating truth about Donna’s death.
April’s dad Marlon was furious at Ross for sharing this information, and in return April was furious with Marlon for keeping it from her.
Emmerdale has confirmed that the story will run weeks, with show producer Laura Shaw saying: “In the coming weeks, as the search for April intensifies, we explore the emotional turmoil a family faces when a young person goes missing. We are so grateful to the charity Missing People for their invaluable help and support with this storyline.”
But is April missing out of choice or has someone taken her?
Does Anthony have something to do with April’s disappearance? (Credit: ITV)
With this in mind, a new theory has predicted that Anthony is to blame for teen April’s disappearance.
“Ruby’s dad the creepiest person, was that his car picking up April?” asked one viewer on X. “Anthony has got April! #Emmerdale,” another fan agreed.Â
Over on Facebook, a third fan said: “I’m wondering if April accepted a lift from a stranger or did she know the person, I thought it looked like Ruby’s dad from behind.”
A fourth fan agreed, writing: “Yeah it deffo looked like Ruby dad…”, while a fifth said: “Oh I do hope it wasn’t Ruby’s dad for obvious reasons.”
“Why do I have a feeling Ruby’s dad is involved in April disappearance”, said another viewer.
