Tracy Shankley (Amy Walsh) had no choice but to deal with the aftermath of her affair reveal in Friday’s (Febraury 16) episode of Emmerdale.
This week, newcomer Ruby (Beth Cordingly) spotted Caleb and Tracy together and immediately knew what was going on. She was in the village trying to get back with Caleb, but sensed he was hiding something from her.
Seeing Caleb and Tracy together didn’t exactly break Ruby’s heart, she merely saw it as Tracy being an obstacle in her way – and oh how she dealt with it.
Of all the days she could’ve picked, Ruby chose Belle (Eden Taylor-Draper) and Tom’s (James Chase) wedding day to expose Caleb and Tracy’s secret.
In tonight’s episode of the ITV soap, there was understandably high emotion – and an awful lot of arguing.
When Tracy returned home from a walk, she found Nate packing a bag for young Frankie. He explained that Frankie would be living with him from now on, and Tracy didn’t get a say in it.
Devastated Tracy tried to get Nate to sit down and talk, but another argument soon got underway. Tracy attempted to say she didn’t want to hurt his feelings, but Nate pointed out that had already happened.
Highlighting that Tracy took Frankie away from him when he cheated, Nate was adamant losing his daughter wasn’t an option, however this played out.
He grabbed the bags and headed outside, where Vanessa (Michelle Hardwick) was waiting with Frankie.
Not wanting to upset her little girl, Tracy tearfully explained that she’d be going to stay with her daddy for a while.
As Vanessa tried to support Tracy, Nate barely looked at her.
He opened the front door of the car and said he’ll see her in court, ready to prepare for an ugly and emotional custody battle.
