Emmerdale Sarah’s surrogacy twist ‘sealed’ as fans ‘uncover’ Vanessa’s dark baby plan
Emmerdale fans are convinced that Vanessa Woodfield will betray Sarah Sugden in a shocking baby plot
Emmerdale fans believe they’ve pieced together Vanessa Woodfield’s ominous baby scheme that could leave Sarah Sugden heartbroken.
Sarah found solace in a new relationship with Kammy after being jilted by her boyfriend, Jacob Gallagher, who was grappling with the loss of his mother, Leyla Harding.
However, their romance hit a snag when Kammy suspected lingering feelings between Sarah and Jacob.
Undeterred by the split, Sarah recently resolved to pursue IVF treatment in her quest to have a baby.
Earlier this week, village doctor Manpreet Sharma confirmed Sarah’s eligibility for the procedure given her genetic condition and previous cancer battles, but cautioned the youngster about the hefty private fees, which start at £5,000.
“Even if you were a suitable candidate, there are no guarantees. A typical cycle starts at £5,000, and that’s not factoring in medications and scans. You could have cycle after cycle, it could take months, years even,” Manpreet advised, though Sarah remained resolute in exploring this avenue, reports Leicestershire Live.
In Wednesday’s (April 30) episode, Sarah confided in Vanessa about her plans, pleading with her to keep it a secret from her grandmother, Charity Dingle.
Sarah also revealed that she had reached out to several local clinics regarding IVF and scheduled an appointment with a Leeds-based doctor to assess her suitability.
Vanessa backed Sarah’s “big decision”, but encouraged her to share her plans with her grandmother, adding, “You need to trust her.”
This follows the soap’s recent switch of its official ITVX logo to an ominous image of Sarah appearing anxious in a hospital corridor.
Emmerdale fans are worried that Vanessa might betray Sarah in a dark baby plot
In light of this week’s episodes, numerous Emmerdale viewers have taken to social media to speculate that Vanessa might decide to carry Sarah’s baby, though the storyline could potentially take a grim twist.
One fan pondered on a Facebook fan page: “Who thinks Vanessa is going to carry a baby for Sarah?” while another added: “If she does, I can imagine something goes wrong after the birth and she doesn’t want to give the baby to her.”
A third viewer suggested: “Vanessa might carry a baby for Sarah, as it’s not safe for Sarah with her heart and medication,” with another concurring: “Yes I was thinking that too.”
Meanwhile, one fan speculated that Vanessa’s sister, Tracy Metcalfe, might step in as a surrogate given her current financial struggles following her husband Nate Robinson’s sudden disappearance.
“Tracy will! Stuck for cash,” they commented.
