According to explosive new spoilers, one villager may be on the verge of uncovering the horrific truth about Nate Robinson’s fate. Fans were shocked earlier this year when it was revealed that Nate had been m.u.r.d.e.r.e.d. He had supposedly left for Shetland in September, but his lifeless body was later discovered in a lake—after it had been wrapped in sheeting and discarded into a stream. Recent episodes featured haunting flashbacks of Nate’s final moments, which finally revealed that Jon Sugden accidentally k.i.l.l.e.d him during one of his twisted attempts to play hero.
It turns out Jon suffers from a disturbing savior complex—he puts people in danger just to “save” them and earn their gratitude. But things went horribly wrong when he injected Nate with an unknown substance. Nate started reacting badly, and before Jon could reverse it, he d.i.e.d. Jon blamed Ella Forrester for his violent act against Chas Dingle, but so far, no one knows the full extent of what Jon has done—or that he’s a m.u.r.d.e.r.e.r walking free.
Meanwhile, the village was rocked when Nate’s ex-girlfriend, Tracy Robinson, was exposed for embezzling money from Eric Pollard. Her actions stemmed from pure desperation—she hadn’t heard from Nate in months, he hadn’t paid child support, and she was left struggling to provide for their daughter, Frankie. Cain Dingle and Chas were furious, believing Nate had abandoned Tracy and Frankie. Of course, they have no idea Nate is already d.e.a.d.
Spoilers suggest that the mystery around Nate’s disappearance is finally about to unravel. Carrie Wyatt urges Tracy to take action—track Nate down and hold him accountable. But what if, in doing so, Tracy discovers Nate never arrived in Shetland? What if she begins to connect the dots and realize Jon Sugden was the last person to see him alive?
The pressure may soon mount on Jon. If Tracy alerts the police, they’ll begin to retrace Nate’s last known steps. That investigation could lead straight to Jon—and possibly the discovery of Nate’s body in the lake. Adding to the chaos, ITV will be changing Emmerdale’s schedule due to a football match between Burnley and Sheffield United, delaying the next episode that may contain a major reveal. Fans will be left hanging during the Easter break just as the truth begins to surface.
Jon Sugden’s true nature continues to unravel. Introduced as a charming doctor and Aaron Dingle’s loving partner, he’s now being exposed as a manipulative and dangerous figure orchestrating tragedy behind the scenes. Actor Oliver Farnworth recently commented on his character’s darkness, saying that playing Jon has been a deep dive into hidden layers of guilt, fear, and twisted motivations.
Elsewhere in the village, drama continues to unfold. Eric Pollard is trying to sell his shop after a failed crypto investment drained Brenda Walker’s savings. Tracy, already under pressure, was caught stealing from the shop, and Vanessa exposed her in front of Eric. While Tracy claimed she didn’t want to hurt him, her actions might have caused even more damage.
Rumors are swirling that Manpreet Sharma might be the one to buy the shop after being struck off as a doctor due to leaked intimate photos. She’s been trying to keep her secret buried, but Joe Tate’s blackmail and Ella’s betrayal have brought her to the brink. With no job and scandal looming, taking over the shop could be her only option.
As secrets pile up and past sins come to light, one thing is clear: Emmerdale is heading into one of its darkest and most explosive storylines yet. Will Tracy uncover the horrifying truth about Nate’s d.e.a.t.h.? Will Jon finally face justice? And is a supposed corpse—Anthony Fox—actually still alive?
Stay tuned, because the storm is far from over.
