Betrayal or Fresh Start? Emmerdale Legend Ditches the Dales for Rival Soap’s Steamy Storyline!
Emmerdale viewers are convinced that a major character will be k.i.l.l.e.d off soon - and April is to blame for the tragedy
Emmerdale viewers are predicting a tragic end for a beloved character, and it’s all due to April Windsor’s actions.
April (played by Amelia Flanagan) has had a tumultuous time on the ITV soap recently. Last year, she disappeared after a disagreement with her father Marlon (Mark Charnock), only to be found months later in a gym toilet where she tragically suffered a stillbirth.
Since returning to the Dales, April has been battling her demons, while Marlon lives in constant fear of her running away again. In his desperation, Marlon has allowed her to get away with much more than usual.
However, Marlon himself hasn’t been entirely innocent during this ordeal. He recently framed Dylan (Fred Kettle), a friend April met while living on the streets, by planting drugs on him – a fact that April discovered this week, leaving her horrified. In a shocking twist, April faked an overdose on ketamine to scare her father.
Believing she was d.e.a.d, a panicked Marlon instructed Rhona (Zoe Henry) to call emergency services, only for April to sit up and reveal she was perfectly fine, reports Leicestershire Live.
Emmerdale’s Marlon Dingle took drastic action and placed a tracking device on his daughter, April, sparking concern and drama during the episode aired on Thursday (April 2), where he eventually fessed up to his actions.
Yet, fans are gripped by a creeping fear that this could spell doom for Marlon, as online chatter suggests they believe April’s actions might push her dad over the edge, leading him to suffer another fatal stroke.
Tensions have soared among followers of the show who remember Marlon’s life-altering stroke in March 2022, with some speculating that Emmerdale is setting the scene for his character to depart tragically.
One anxious fan expressed their thoughts on an Emmerdale Facebook fan page: “What April did to her poor dad was rotten. I do believe Marlon is going too far but the man is actually terrified he’s going to lose her. Don’t know how the storyline will come to an end but I have to say I’m quite fed up of it!”
“Maybe Marlon will have another stroke and then she’ll be so regretful at how she’s been treating him…” pondered another viewer, concerned about the turn of events.
A third viewer is convinced disaster looms, saying: “She will drive him to another stroke and he’ll d.i.e 100% calling it that’s the outcome.” Echoing that sentiment, another added, “I think Marlon will have another stroke with all the stress.”
Emmerdale airs weeknights on ITV1 and ITVX at 7.30pm
