Emmerdale exit ‘sealed’ for icon after 19 years as fans ‘point out’ tragic d.e.a.t.h clue

Emmerdale viewers have been left fearing for Victoria Sugden’s life after she uncovered a huge secret about her half-brother John (Oliver Farnworth) on Tuesday evening (April 22).

As John and Aaron Dingle (Danny Miller) go full steam ahead with their wedding plans, Victoria (Isabel Hodgins) is trying to get a crowd together for the stag do.

Victoria knows John spent a great deal of time in the army, so she decided to contact one of his old squad mates and learn more about his past.

While at The Hide, Vic met up with Connor, and quickly, the conversation turned to a man named Aidan Moore.

Vic knew about Aidan because she had discovered his dog tags among John’s belongings, and learnt her brother was close to him while in the army.

However, Connor was left shocked when Vic mentioned Aidan’s d.e.a.t.h, as the ex-soldier confirmed that he is still alive.

Taken aback, Vic went to the hospital hoping to see Aidan. However, she wasn’t expecting to see him in such a bad way.

When she returned home, Victoria wasted no time confronting her brother and wondered why he had lied about being engaged to Aidan.

John held his temper and explained that Aidan is currently in a vegetative state after having his brain starved of oxygen, and he feels guilty for the incident.

This means he cannot do anything that requires conscious intention, and the chance of him doing so ever again is slim.

Vic is unaware that John tends to put people in grave danger before saving their lives. He is also responsible for Nate Robinson’s (Jurell Carter) d.e.a.t.h and a long list of other crimes.

John asked Vic to keep the truth about Aidan from Aaron, adamant him discovering his secret wouldn’t be wise. However, Emmerdale fans are now predicting John will try and k.i.l.l Victoria in a bid to keep his past a secret.

Taking to X, one person wrote: “Oh dear…. Victoria could be John’s next victim???…. #Emmerdale.”

A second stated: “John’s now thinking he has to ‘save’ Victoria…and ‘accidentally’ k.i.l.l her in the process! #Emmerdale.”

A third chimed in: “Victoria needs to be one of John’s victims, she’ll bring it on herself, it’s none of her business, even if John’s a psychopath. #Emmerdale.”

“John will have to get rid of Victoria, his list of people to k.i.l.l is growing rapidly…#Emmerdale”, added one fan.

“Nah, John will have to k.i.l.l you now Victoria! #emmerdale”, added another.
