Emmerdale’s Caleb threatens to kill as identity of mystery caller revealed in Ruby twist

Caleb Miligan had a dark warning for one Emmerdale character, as his mystery caller’s identity was revealed in spoilers.

While they were not identified onscreen on Monday night, spoilers detailed this week we would see the in scenes with Caleb. It confirmed a twist for Caleb’s wife Ruby Miligan, while Caleb vowed to protect her.

Viewers had seen Caleb answering Ruby’s phone on Friday, with him shocked by who had called her. Ruby had no idea that Caleb took the call before telling the person not to call again.

After he blocked the number he said nothing to Ruby, but on Monday he too began receiving calls from the same person. Caleb threatened to kill someone as he vowed to protect his wife, preparing to meet the caller.

He coldly told the person on the phone: “Stop calling. I will protect Ruby from you with everything I’ve got, are you listening to me?” The person on the other end of the line then told him something to which he said: “You’re a liar.”

He then agreed to meet the person, issuing a sinister death warning. He said: “Alright then tomorrow, I’ll be there… if only to put you six feet under myself.”

So who is the caller and what did they want? Is Ruby in danger, and why is Caleb so keen to protect her, while hiding the twist from her amid her recent brush with death?

Spoilers have revealed it’s Ruby’s estranged mother Helen who called her and then Caleb, after years of being apart from them. Upcoming scenes will see Caleb visit her at a hospital, where he learns from Helen that she is very ill and is dying.

Helen admits that she regrets the distance between herself and her daughter and that she’s now divorced from Ruby’s father. She wants to make amends with her daughter before she dies, hoping to see her and put things right.

Things take a turn when Caleb cunningly strikes a deal with Helen to bring Ruby to see her if she sends him £100k. But will Helen agree and how will Ruby react?
