The Emmerdale village now knows about Mary Goskirk and the late Suzy Merton’s kiss. And, the fallout looks set to be huge.
Unlike other soap secrets, this one really didn’t stay a secret for that long at all…
But, as Mary burns bridges with grieving Vanessa, is she set to leave the Dales? Will Vanessa push her out?

Mary and Suzy kiss secret is out in Emmerdale
On the day of the limo crash, Mary visited Suzy and was stunned to find out that Suzy actually had feelings for her.
Mary and Suzy had been avoiding telling each other how they really felt for over a year. But, Suzy couldn’t keep quiet any longer.
She admitted to Mary that she was willing to ditch Vanessa and start a proper relationship with her instead (poor Ness!)
As they kissed (and were caught by Leyla), Suzy was determined to speak to Vanessa and end things with her. But, the limo crash prevented this… Suzy sadly lost her life in the accident meaning that Suzy and Mary’s relationship ended before it really got off the ground. Tragic.
Tonight (Thursday, March 13), after Vanessa read through Suzy’s phone (that miraculously survived the crash) and found out that she was seeing another woman, the truth came out.
Rhona popped round to visit Ness and spotted her mum’s bracelet in the house. Little did she know that she’d just dropped her mum right in it.
Adding two and two together, Ness realised that Mary was Suzy’s ‘other woman’ and had it out with her in the Woolpack. And, oh, she wasn’t afraid to put on a huge show for the punters. She was LIVID. At least Ross enjoyed the free entertainment with his pint even if he was stopped from capturing it on video and going viral online…

Are Mary’s days in the village numbered?
As Vanessa rightly said Mary is her ‘best friend’s mum.’ But, with the truth now out, Rhona might just be forced to take sides.
And if Rhona happens to side with Ness, where would that leave Mary? While nothing’s been officially confirmed about Louise Jameson leaving the soap as Mary, Mary should expect a lot of heated conversations coming her way should she decided to stick around.
Vanessa’s not impressed, but will she force Mary out of the Dales?

A new Emmerdale fan theory has emerged suggesting Suzy Merton was having an affair – no, not that one (sorry Mary), but with another other woman. This came as Vanessa opened Suzy’s phone last night (Wednesday, March 12) to discover a series of texts from Leyla.
She was horrified as she read on, learning that Suzy had kissed another woman. And, while Leyla hadn’t deigned to name names, the culprit wasn’t far away. Vanessa shared her discovery with Mary, unaware that she was speaking to the true object of Suzy’s affections – not knowing that Suzy had been planning on ending things so she could be with Mary.
But is there more to Suzy and Mary’s emotional affair? Some think not – and have accused Suzy of having another affair.

Suzy was having a second affair, Emmerdale fans predict
Writing on social media as last night’s episode aired, fans shared their theories about what might happen next. And some wondered if Suzy might have had a third woman on the go.
“Wouldn’t it be a great twist, unlikely, but if Mary WASN’T the other woman and there was someone else. Again unlikely, but given Mary and Suzy were not having an affair like Vanessa has suggested imagine the shock if there was someone else involved,” wrote one fan on X.
“I’m a bit confused about the whole thing cos we never saw this ‘relationship’ between Mary and Suzy. We barely even saw one between Vanessa and Suzy. I know we saw that kiss but other than that, there wasn’t anything so what if the texts were about someone else? If Vanessa thinks Suzy was having a full blown affair it can’t have been with Mary, so maybe she was having an affair with another woman?!” asked another.

Was Suzy seeing multiple women?
This unlikely theory was quickly debunked by a third fan, who said: “Just because it was only one kiss, no I do not believe Suzy was having another affair yet to be revealed. Some can’t grasp concept of being able to fall in love with someone without sex involved first. Suzy had fallen in love with Mary over time on deeper level.”
Do you think Suzy was playing both Mary and Vanessa?

Fans of Emmerdale have been left confused as Vanessa Woodfield found out about Suzy’s kiss last night (Wednesday, March 12) after reading Leyla’s messages to her phone.
Having walked in on Suzy and Mary kissing, Leyla was had been party to their illicit kiss. She took the secret to her grave, but not before sending a series of incriminating text messages to Suzy.
Viewers were more distracted by another issue though… how did Vanessa get hold of Suzy’s phone in the first place?

Emmerdale fans confused by ‘plot hole’ as Vanessa learns about Suzy kiss
Writing on social media as the episode aired, fans shared their thoughts on Vanessa’s discovery. And some had a very pressing question – would Suzy really have left her phone behind as she embarked on her fateful limo ride?
“How does vanessa even have Suzy’s phone? wouldn’t it have gone down with her in the limo? I would’ve believed if she was reading the texts from a laptop,” pointed out one fan on X.
“Why didn’t Suzy’s phone end up in the lake?” asked another.
“Good question that,” agreed a third.

With reports of Gail Loman’s exit on the cards in Emmerdale, a new theory has ‘worked out’ how she will leave – and it’s linked to Mary.
Last night (Tuesday March 11), Mary trusted gossipy Gail (a literal barmaid who strikes up conversation with anyone and everyone) with her big secret.
But, could this secret actually play a huge part in Gail’s exit storyline? We think so!
Mary told Gail everything (Credit: ITV)
Mary told Gail about her kiss with Suzy
On the day of the limo crash, viewers will know that Leyla actually caught Mary and Suzy kissing. The women had finally confessed their feelings for each other after a good year of dancing around them.
Suzy was even ready to throw away her relationship with Vanessa to be with Mary. But, of course, the limo crash meant that they never did get their happy ever after.
Since Suzy’s death in the limo, Mary has been trying to be a supportive friend to Vanessa (some may say out of guilt).
But, last night, Mary felt as though she just had to tell someone about her kiss with Suzy. And with the only other person who knew, Leyla, now dead… Mary selected Gail to share her secret. Wow, what an honour!
Gail was stunned as Mary admitted that they’d kissed on the day of Suzy’s death… But, before she could elaborate any further, Vanessa walked in asking Mary to sign a tribute for her late partner. Talk about awkward.

Theory: Gail’s exit storyline linked to Mary secret?
With Gail now knowing Mary’s secret, it can’t be long before it slips out of her mouth. We just know that Gail struggles to keep anything to herself.
With Vanessa finding out the truth, Gail might feel as though she’s broken everyone’s trust and decide to leave the village.
Or, perhaps, in a sinister twist, Mary might realise that her secret isn’t safe with Gail and attempt to keep her quiet. But in the process, Gail could accidentally get brutally injured…
Considering that Gail doesn’t appear very often, we reckon that last night’s scenes were important in some way. But, could this all be paving the way for her exit?

Tonight’s episode of Emmerdale saw a return to screens for the late Leyla Harding and Suzy Merton in a series of flashbacks. Killed in last month’s horrific limousine crash, Leyla and Suzy have been mourned by those who loved them, including Leyla’s son Jacob and Suzy’s two adoring admirers (one, it became clear, without the other’s knowledge).
And, as the village laid Leyla and Amy Barton to rest tonight, the soap aired three flashbacks to the days leading up to their deaths. One after the other, three bombshells dropped, revealing the secrets Leyla had been party to before she died.
And what doozies they were!

Tracy, we learned, has been pocketing money from the till Meanwhile, Suzy was planning on leaving Vanessa after declaring her feelings for Mary.
Writing on social media as the flashbacks aired, fans shared their thoughts on these revelations. And many were left unsatisfied, feeling as though Suzy and Mary’s relationship deserved more than a short flashback.
“Just watched today’s Emmerdale. And gutted all over again at the choice to kill off Leyla & Suzy. The Suzy/Mary relationship should have been explored way back instead of them shoving Suzy with Vanessa and then massively underusing the character!” wrote one fan.
“One short flashback scene is all writers would commit to Mary & Suzy, a human interest storyline that deserved to be beautifully told,” said another.
“Mary and Suzy???? That’s taken me out more than the fact Emmerdale didn’t show this infidelity In real time? What’s the matter with them? They usually love to show it,” said another.
Has the soap wasted an opportunity in its flashback revelations?

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.

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.

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.

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.

*Warning: Emmerdale spoilers follow from the Thursday March 6 episode, which is available now on ITVX, but has not yet aired on ITV*
Tonight’s episode of Emmerdale revealed three enormous secrets which the late Leyla Harding took to her grave. This came as the village held two funerals – one for Leyla, and one for limo victim Amy Barton.
Amid the grieving families and sniping between Matty and Cain, the soap dropped another bombshell – Leyla had been keeping three secrets very close to her chest. Secrets she’ll now be keeping quiet about forever….

Tracy has been stealing from the shop in Emmerdale spoilers tonight
In the first of three flashbacks, Leyla dropped by Pollard’s shop to pick up an expensive bottle of plonk. But, as she repaired her makeup in the mirror, she inadvertently witnessed Tracy pocketing the money.
Confronting Tracy, she learned just how cash-strapped she was – and that Nate hasn’t been sending her any maintenance money for Frankie. There’s one thing Leyla doesn’t know, of course. Nate is dead, chained up at the bottom of the lake where she met her terrible end.
As they talk, Leyla learned the extent of Tracy’s pilfering – putting her £2000 in debt to Pollard. Back at home, in the present, a guilt-ridden Tracy pored over her purse full of Pollard’s cash. Will she carry on her theft now that Leyla’s out of the picture?

Suzy admitted her love for Mary
In the second flashback, Leyla walked in on a particularly awkward moment between Suzy and Mary – catching them mid-kiss. This came as Suzy admitted that she loved Mary and was going to dump Vanessa for her.
In the present, a devastated Vanessa told Mary how she’d planned to propose to Suzy. Still hiding their secret (and her feelings for Suzy), Mary told her that Suzy would have definitely accepted.
Oh, poor naive Vanessa.

Manpreet’s being blackmailed
In the third, she walked into the surgery to find Manpreet on her computer. She was shocked to see whatever Manpreet was looking at on the screen, exclaiming “was that you?!”
As the episode ended, the mystery of Manpreet’s messages continued to grow, as she read a text claiming to know her little secret. But what did Leyla see on that computer screen exactly? Has Doctor Manpreet opened her own Only Fans?

Fans of Emmerdale are convinced that there was something going on between Mary Goskirk and Suzy Merton before the party planner’s tragic death – and have now seized upon a vital piece of ‘evidence’ that they were having an affair.
Last night (Monday, February 24), the village held a vigil for the three lives lost. And, as Vanessa mourned girlfriend Suzy, Mary took the opportunity to pay her condolences… and take a little something for herself.

Writing on social media, fans shared their theories about these scenes – with a number suggesting that Mary and Suzy could have been seeing each other behind Vanessa’s back.
“Why do I get the feeling Suzy and Mary had a secret affair,” wrote one fan on X.
“Mary you little liar .. we know you were more than ‘friends’,” another accused.
“Yo Mary and Suzy have defiently had an affair or some kind of a moment.. “She was my friend” More than that love,” a third said.

It’s been an emotional time to be an Emmerdale fan – with last week’s limo crash episodes serving as farewell to Leyla Harding, Suzy Merton and Amy Barton, all in one fell sweep.
With three residents succumbing to a perilous limousine crash on the outskirts of town, viewers were shocked as the soap killed off the women, one after the other.
First up, Suzy. The party planner was killed during the initial impact as the limo crashed onto an ice-covered lake. Next up, Leyla. She had been mortally injured during the crash. She survived long enough for Kerry to pull her for the car, but died in the ambulance on the way to hospital.
Finally, Amy. Poor Amy crashed through the ice (hi Nate) and later died in hospital from the shock. This week, as the village mourns its losses, viewers attempt to come to terms with the death of three major characters.
But what have the actors said about their death scenes?
Poor Suzy was the first to die (Credit: ITV)
Suzy was the first to die in Emmerdale limo crash
As the first to die, actress Martelle Edinborough paid tribute to her character in the episode’s aftermath. Writing on X, she said: “And just like that….Suzy is no more and a new chapter begins!! What an ep!”
She continued: “It’s been such a blessing to have been a part of such an iconic show that I grew up on and loved by so many!!”
Martelle followed up with a post to her Instagram account, where she shared a series of images from behind the scenes of the crash.
In the caption, she wrote: “Well what a Week!!! I am not OK! Talk about an emotional rollercoaster!! Suzy, Leyla, Amy!!”
She continued: “I genuinely haven’t known where to start with this post as there’s so much I want to say and my brain has not been braining so it’s taken a minute. But I’m going to start by saying firstly how beyond blessed and grateful I feel to have been given the chance to bring Suzy Merton to life on your screens!!
“Emmerdale has one of the most incredible fan bases and I can’t tell you how overwhelmed I have been at the amount lovely messages I’ve received this week and for all the love you have shown for Suzy! I did not know she was loved this much to the point you guys had her trending, which I will never get over! Haha but it’s been so beautiful to see so THANK YOU!!!”
In her full statement, she went on to thank the production team and her fellow cast members, thanking the show for having her.
She finished: “Yes, I kept the Orange Coat!”

Leyla killed in Emmerdale limo crash
The soap revealed last year that actress Roxy Shahidi would be leaving the soap after almost 16 years. This led to much speculation among viewers whether she had been killed off, or quit of her own accord.
“I genuinely am so excited about a new chapter,” she told the panel. “That’s what life’s about, isn’t it? You’ve got to do new things, you’ve got to challenge yourself. And, sometimes, when you’re forced to do that, it’s the best thing that can happen. Otherwise you’ll just stay within your comfort zone.”
She continued: “To have been in a show like that for 16 years is such a blessing, it’s something you can’t take for granted. We’re always aware each year, most of us are on yearly contracts so you never know.
“To have done 16 years, I am so grateful, but when I got that call because I kind of knew something was happening… it was a shock. When it’s such an epic story, you know it’s going to happen and I think your job is just to process that, do the best you can, and just keep going.”
Amy was the third victim of the limo crash (Credit: ITV)
Posting to her Instagram account, she wrote: “Goodbye Amy. I have had the best six years of my life playing this gobby Geordie with a heart of gold! What a way to go – so so proud of the cast and crew who achieved all of this in these last few eps!â€
She admitted she has “so many more amazing things to say†about her time on the show. However, she doesn’t have the words yet.
She continued: “For tonight, I just want to say thank you for everything! And thank you to every one of you who came on the journey with me. And for all your beautiful messages you have sent to me.
Natalie Ann Jamieson confirms shock as Amy dies in Emmerdale limo crash
In an interview with The Mirror, she revealed that Amy’s death had come as a shock to her also. “I had been asking for meetings about what was coming up for Amy and saying that I’d really like some challenging, new stuff,” she said.
“They knew they had this coming up and they didn’t have anything planned for Amy – and that was the direction that I wanted to go in. It worked out that this was going to be Amy’s exit and I didn’t know it was going to be death at first.”
She continued: “When they told me, I was like, “Oh!” It’s really hard to know whether you would prefer for your character to die if you’re going, or to go in the back of a taxi.”
