    Spoilers: Ruby discovers heartbreaking family secret at her mum’s will reading

    It’s the week of Ruby Fox-Miligan’s mother’s will reading, in Emmerdale spoilers next week – and there’s a huge shock in store.

    Ruby’s estranged mother recently died. However, before then, shifty-son-in-law Caleb took the opportunity to blackmail her, demanding money if she ever wanted to see her daughter again.

    Mum Helen died anyway, leaving Ruby without a sense of closure. However, in the weeks since, she has discovered that Caleb in fact visited her mother on her deathbed.

    Caleb has managed to talk his way out of trouble so far, with Ruby still none the wiser about the deal he made with her mother. But for how much longer will his secret stay buried?

    And what fresh revelations will Helen’s will reading dig up?

    However, Ruby’s world is turned upside down for entirely different reasons. She’s shocked to learn that Helen was secretly in touch with her estranged daughter – Steph.

    Caleb enjoys a private moment of relief after making it through the will reading with his secret intact. But for how much longer will Ruby stay in the dark?

  • Emmerdale fans suss out newcomer Jade’s true identity – and she’s a mystery Miligan

    Emmerdale fans suss out newcomer Jade’s true identity – and she’s a mystery Miligan

    Fans of Emmerdale believe newcomer Jade is hiding her true identity and is in fact related to two other village residents.

    Last week, actor and musician Twinnie-Lee Moore made her first appearance as ruthless boxing promoter Jade. Jade arrived in the village to encourage – or rather demand – Billy to fight again.

    However, cynical viewers don’t believe that Jade is her real name and have been speculating over who she really could be.

    Jade arrives in Emmerdale

    In recent weeks, fans have seen Billy get involved in the world of unlicensed boxing and hide the secret from wife Dawn, who thinks the money he’s made from it has been pulled off trees.

    In Friday’s episode, ruthless boxing promoter Jade arrived in the village much to Billy’s horror. As she wound down the window of her car, Billy asked what she was doing there – meaning they’d already met.

    After telling him she was impressed with his home setting, she gave him a veiled threat by saying: “Obviously got a lot to lose.”

    Jade told Billy she wanted to see more of him in the ring just as Dawn arrived to ask if everything was OK. Jade responded: “It would be if Billy would do as I ask.”

    Billy covered by saying she was a potential client. Jade went along with the story and said she was in the market for a PT and had heard how good Billy is. Later, Billy told Mack that Jade is the one who runs all the fights, but he was determined not to get involved anymore given his current injuries.

    However, he soon changed his mind when he got ripped off buying a new car and Dawn commented about everything going wrong for them. Dawn encouraged him to call the ‘posh client from this morning’ and so that’s what he did. But what does Jade have in store for him? And do her ties to the village go further than Billy?

    Caleb and Ruby apparently have a daughter!

    Fans rumble Jade’s true identity

    Last month, it was revealed that Caleb Milligan and his wife Ruby had a daughter. Caleb went to visit wife Ruby’s dying mother in the hospital. During a heated exchange, Helen asked Caleb if he had seen anything of Stephanie. Caleb was furious at the question and told Helen not to mention his kids.

    When he arrived in Emmerdale, Caleb did mention kids – but we only met Nicky. Nicky, himself, also mentioned having a sister. Though we should remember he also told a bunch of lies including the fact that his mum was dead. Which, as we know, she’s very much alive.

    Aside from that, nothing else is known about the mysterious Miligan daughter. But fans have been speculating that Jade could be Stephanie.

    “Just a thought, I know Caleb and Ruby have a daughter called Stephanie, but suppose Jade isn’t her real name – but Jade is Stephanie?!” wrote one fan on X, with a second fan writing: “Wouldn’t surprise me if she’s related to Caleb and Ruby.”

    Fans on Reddit were also on board this theory, with one viewer writing: “Could she be Caleb and Ruby’s estranged daughter? Using the name Jade as an alias… Both Caleb and Ruby have ruthless streaks, and what we’ve seen from Jade so far is that she seems ruthless.”

    Another fan agreed, adding: “I actually thought the same thing. They suddenly have a daughter, and then this new chick turns up.”

    Twinnie-Lee Moore on new role

    Speaking about being back on screen, Former Hollyoaks star Twinnie said: “My life has been a bit crazy recently juggling music and acting with lots of back and forth between Nashville and Yorkshire but I’ve been loving it!

    “I’ve loved being back on screen, especially as the show is shot in Yorkshire. Being able to be home with family and go to work on such an iconic show has been nothing short of amazing! The whole team has been so welcoming and really supportive.

    “My character is so much fun to play and I can’t wait to see how the audience reacts to her.”

  • Review of the week: Kim’s taking things too far, more Miligans in the offing, and Nate’s alive!

    Review of the week: Kim’s taking things too far, more Miligans in the offing, and Nate’s alive!

    Our Emmerdale review this week is mostly just full of confusion. After the thrills and spills of last week’s barn fire, it’s been a bit quieter, a bit baffling, and we have to admit – a bit disappointing.

    Here’s what’s been leaving us wanting in this week’s Emmerdale review.

    Kim’s terrible revenge

    First up, we need to talk about Kim Tate and her overly elaborate revenge on cheating husband Will.

    Because WHAT on earth, was that?

    Just to recap. Will cheated with his ex, Rose and thought he’d got away with it. But unbeknownst to him, Kim had worked it all out.

    In the meantime, Will got a mysterious message from a mysterious blackmailer, demanding £10k to keep his secret. He sold his precious watch – the one Kim had bought him as a wedding present – for the cash. But when he was on his way to the drop-off, he found out about the barn fire and went to help, getting injured in the process.

    Anyhoo, that didn’t sit right with his blackmailer, who then upped the price to £50k and nicked Kim’s horse too. And then finally Kim herself vanished. A frantic Will had to follow strange instructions and the distant strains of Fleetwood Mac to find his kidnapped wife.

    It was like some weird, twisted version of Taskmaster, as he was forced to dig a grave, spurred on by a recording of Kim’s voice shouting for help. And what did he uncover? A coffin with his own name on it. Seriously who has the time or the energy to set all that up?

    Surprised? Nope.

    Well, we were about to find out! Because the blackmailer appeared and what do you know? It was Kim all along! Hands up if you were surprised? No? Neither were we.

    What we were surprised about, though, was the HUGE amount of effort Kim put into this ridiculous revenge plot. Buying a coffin with Will’s name on it, and burying it. Dressing a mannequin up as herself. Laying the trail for him to follow… the whole thing was ridiculously complicated, time-consuming, expensive and totally bonkers (and not in a good way!).

    If we’re being honest, it was all very unlike Kim. Ms Tate is the mastermind behind a business empire. She is no fool.

    She wanted to make Will pay, which is really no less than he deserves, the big wally. We get that.

    But we reckon she’d  have done it in a cold, calculating Kim kind of way. Not this elaborate prank that served no purpose – Kim’s better than that!

    More Miligans!

    The biggest news of this week, though, was Caleb and Ruby talking about their daughter Stephanie! She was mentioned by Ruby’s dying mum, Helen, and then by Caleb and Ruby.

    Obviously, we’re now desperate to meet her and to find out what they did that made her cut them off!

    Ruby and Caleb are a great addition to Emmerdale (when Caleb’s not weirdly fixating on Kim that is) and we’re really enjoying finding out more about Ruby’s back story especially. Though we love Sharon Maughan and we’re sad we didn’t get to see Helen and Ruby together.

    But like we said, now we’re eager to find out more about Stephanie and hopefully meet her too. In fact, we’re busy putting together a wishlist of actresses who could play her. Watch this space!

    Nate’s alive!

    One disappointment this week was finding out that Nate is alive! We didn’t wish him dead, but his exit seemed so brutal and unfair, we were convinced he was really another victim of the fire.

    We pictured Cain calling his son, ready to apologise, only for the camera to focus on the phone ringing out as Nate lay unconscious nearby. We imagined his final hours – once someone (probably Mack, let’s be honest) had found him. Nate in a hospital bed, Cain and Tracy waiting to say sorry for the awful things they said. And then the long beep as his life slipped away… SOB!

    But instead we got a half-hearted mention of him settling into his new life in Shetland. Is that really it?

  • Ruby’s got regrets, Will’s staying put and Moira’s made a big decision – here’s what happened in Emmerdale tonight

    Ruby’s got regrets, Will’s staying put and Moira’s made a big decision – here’s what happened in Emmerdale tonight

    Emmerdale tonight saw Moira make a big decision about her treatment for her brain tumour. She’d been adamant that she wasn’t going to have the surgery, but after the dramatic events of this week, she’s changed her mind.

    Meanwhile, a battered Will returned to Home Farm, Arthur was giving Laurel a headache, and Ruby was having regrets about her family situation.

    Here’s everything that happened in Emmerdale on Friday September 20.

    Bad Will hunting

    Like a couple of mismatched detectives in a Sunday-night thriller, Lydia and Jimmy were off hunting for Will in the woods. As they tried to find Will using his phone tracker, Lydia took the opportunity to take a few digs at Jimmy’s support of his abusive nephew Tom (good work, Lyds). But her shade was interrupted when they came across Will, who’d crawled out of his grave.

    Gazing at the grave with Will’s coffin inside and his exhausted, filthy mate, Jimmy came to the belated conclusion that the blackmailer meant business. As a detective, Jimmy makes a great lorry driver.

    Will and Kim are over in Emmerdale tonight

    As Will made it home, he confronted his unrepentant wife about what she’d done – and what he’d done with Rose.

    The pair picked over the bones of their marriage, and Kim demanded Will sign the papers giving her back ownership of everything in his name. But Will refused. He told her bluntly they weren’t separating. Yeah, good luck with that, Will. Kim always gets her own way in the end.

    And then he asked the question we’ve all been wanting to ask. Why didn’t Kim just ask him if he’d cheated? Why go to the lengths of pretending her horse had been stolen, or Kim was kidnapped?

    But Kim had the answer ready – she said Will had proved she meant nothing to him. Ouch.

    Will dug his heels in and refused to go. But when he admitted he’d signed over his life, or his share of the haulage yard at least, to Caleb, Kim wasn’t impressed. Though where else she thought he’d get £50k in a hurry we don’t know.

    Still refusing to sign the paperwork, Will left. And Kim took off her wedding ring. Seems it’s really over!

    Family ties

    Emotional Ruby begged Caleb to talk about Stephanie, revealing more about their relationship with the daughter they’d never mentioned before this week. Ruby said losing her mum had made her think of Steph. She said if she’d died in the fire, Stephanie wouldn’t have known how much she loves her, and she was tearful as she talked about her daughter.

    But by the end of the episode, Ruby had decided not to call her daughter after all, meaning we’re going to have to wait a bit longer before Steph inevitably shows up in the village!

    Jai made a move

    Arthur was defiant after being caught drinking with the date he met online, lashing out at his mum and Jai. Laurel tried to calm him down and tell him she just worried about him, and that he was too young to be on dating apps.

    With the air cleared between mum and son – almost – he warned Laurel that Jai was trying to worm his way back into the family. And he was proved right later when Jai made a move on Laurel – and she threw him out. Yay, Laurel!

    Moira made a decision

    Worried Moira was shocked when Cain admitted he’d told their boys how to call an ambulance in an emergency. And she was grateful that little Isaac had got help after she’d had a seizure. She told her relieved husband that she’d decided to go ahead with the surgery after all. Let’s hope it’s the right decision.

  • Queen Kim is finally back, Billy’s telling lies and Moira won’t see sense – everything that happened in Emmerdale tonight

    Queen Kim is finally back, Billy’s telling lies and Moira won’t see sense – everything that happened in Emmerdale tonight

    Emmerdale tonight saw Kim finally outed as Will’s blackmailer. Despite the fact we’d all worked it out, Will hadn’t and was left in a deep hole – literally and metaphorically – when she finally revealed herself.

    Meanwhile, Moira was still struggling and Caleb was trying to cover his tracks. Here’s everything that happened in Emmerdale on Thursday September 19.

    Kim was revealed as Will’s blackmailer in a total shock

    Will met with Caleb and signed the contract for the cash without even reading it. Probably signed his life away, but who cares?

    Soon, Will got a call from, er, himself – or at least someone using his voice at the other end of the phone. Kim was missing, and he had to follow directions to find her.

    When he got to the location, he found a creepy mannequin with Kim’s face on it. He then followed more instructions taking him to a speaker playing Tell Me Lies and a spade. The instructions were to dig. And when he heard Kim’s voice shouting for help, he started to dig.

    He found a coffin in the ground and feared Kim had been buried in there. What he found was a walkie talkie with Kim shouting out ‘Will’ before he was hit over the head with a spade and knocked into the coffin – by none other than Kim herself. Well would you believe it? Who would ever have worked out Kim was behind all this? That was such a shocking reveal…

    As we picked our mouths up off the floor, Will still hadn’t worked it out as he asked Kim what was going on. She spelt it out for him and he confessed he had slept with Rose.

    Will, who at this point had done his back in and couldn’t get out of the coffin, begged Kim to hear him out. But she wasn’t that interested. She took the bag of cash, and Will’s phone, and left him in the hole, making it clear their marriage was over. “How will I get out of this hole?” Will cried. We have no idea Will, none at all.

    Dawn Fletcher confronts husband Billy Fletcher in Emmerdale

    Billy was keeping secrets in Emmerdale tonight

    Dawn had finally taken her hair out of her mum bun and was looking rather glam, but Billy was acting shifty. She then couldn’t help herself snooping in his bag and found wads of cash…

    She confronted him and he claimed to have been saving up for a while. But Dawn railed at him for not helping out when they were struggling to pay their bills. He covered and said he was planning to book a surprise holiday. She bought it hook, line and sinker, but it was clear to everyone watching he wasn’t telling the truth.

    And lo and behold he soon made a phone call asking for more work from a ‘mate’ and that he’s up for whatever. Because, that doesn’t sound dodgy at all. We also think this rules him out of working with Kim because in what universe would anyone address Kim Tate as ‘mate’?!

    Moira had another seizure

    Things were building up for Moira. She was relieved the fire has been ruled as an accident, but still doesn’t think the insurance company will pay out.

    Meanwhile, Cain confided in Liam his worries about Moira not getting the operation. But Liam gave him some strong words of advice: don’t run away.

    Brenda then gave Moira some words of wisdom ‘from one brain tumour sufferer to another’. But Moira wasn’t really interested, until Brenda explained Cain’s anger was at the tumour, not at Moira herself.

    Moira then returned home, thoughtful, but ended up having to look after Isaac by herself when Mack was called away. What could go wrong?

    Well, a lot it turned out as Moira had a seizure with little Isaac just by her side. Cain returned in the nick of time and helped Moira come round. But it turned out Isaac had already acted and dialled 999 – bless him, give that boy a medal.

    And Isaac’s devastation and pleas might finally have made Moira see sense about the surgery. Or have they?

    Caleb worked to cover his tracks in Emmerdale tonight

    Trying to be upbeat, Ruby was faced with a mountain of responsibility as she dealt with the paperwork surrounding her mother’s death. But Caleb grew twitchy at the thought of her contacting solicitors knowing his little transfer secret might be exposed if Ruby digs too deep.

    Fortunately for Caleb he has been named alongside Ruby as the executor of Helen’s will. So he might just be able to do some fiddling to keep his secret safe.

    However, Ruby wasn’t interested in finances at this point, she’s suddenly remembered she has a daughter – the mysterious Stephanie, who has barely been mentioned and has now been brought up twice in a week. If that’s not a great big flashing light saying Stephanie is on her way to the Dales, then we don’t know what is.

    Also in Emmerdale tonight…

    Jai tried to make amends again

    Jai invited Arthur to his Spiderman fest tonight, but Arthur made it clear he wants nothing at all to do with him. There was good news for Jai when Caleb confirmed the investment had gone through.

    Arthur later had a date, who he had seemingly met on an online dating app. They were clearly both nervous as they cracked open some beers and tried to get to know each other better.

    When Arthur went to dispose of the beer cans later and he and his date almost kissed, they were spotted by Jai. But it was very unclear whether Jai was on his side or not or whether Jai would tell Laurel what he overheard – which was Arthur bragging how many men he’d been with. How very un-Arthur-like.

    Gail and Ryan took things to a new level

    Gail was very upset because her rat, Daniel, had died. She blamed her housemate for not feeding him. Gail decided she was moving out and Ryan was thrilled and suggested he make more space in his wardrobe for her. But she told him she wanted to find a place of her own and Ryan was visibly disappointed.

    Gail explained she didn’t want to ruin what they had by rushing into it. But then a quick offer of a gravesite for Daniel in the garden sealed the deal and she changed her mind, agreeing to move in. Will Gail and Ryan regret it?

    Lydia Dingle has a heated row with Jimmy King in Emmerdale

    Jimmy and Lydia went head to head in Emmerdale tonight

    As they locked horns over Tom’s behaviour, Lydia and Jimmy weren’t exactly friends. But then the subject changed and Lydia managed to get Jimmy to spill all about Will’s blackmail. The pair realised they had to do something to save Kim, but can the unlikely superheroes save the day?
