Emmerdale’s Paula Lane teases things will ‘spiral’ for Ella as accusations build
The actress updated her followers that Ella has lots more drama to come in the ITV soap
Emmerdale actress Paula Lane as teased that “things are about to spiral” for her character Ella Forster in the next few weeks as she gets herself ready to leave the Dales.
Paula Lane joined Emmerdale in 2024 as she took on the role of Ella Forster. Ella found herself a job in the village after she stuck up for Mandy Dingle at a Veterinary Ball.
Paula entered the Dales after leaving Weatherfield behind after her Coronation Street character, Kylie Platt, departed after being m.u.r.d.e.r.e.d in 2016.
Speaking of her new role at the time, Paula shared: “I’m so excited to be joining the cast of Emmerdale. Everyone has been so welcoming and I can’t wait to start a new chapter playing the role of Ella.
“I’ve already heard there are big plans for her and I can’t wait to see her navigate a new life in the village and hopefully make some friends!”
Ella was coupled up with Dr Liam Cavanagh, but they split after Liam re-developed feelings for Chas Dingle during a rocky patch in their relationship.
In another latest twist, we saw Ella’s past resurface as a journalist from the Hotton Courier blackmailed Wendy into sharing more information about Ella Forster, who served time in prison for k.i.l.l.i.n.g her friend at 11 years old.
While rumours have circulated that Paula will be leaving the Leeds-based soap this year, she took to her Instagram to tease what’s next for her troublesome character.
Alongside a black and white snap of her behind the scenes in the makeup chair, she wrote: “@emmerdale Things are about to spiral” and reposted it to her story as she added: “From tonight..”
Ella is about to find herself in a spot of trouble in upcoming episodes after Chas Dingle collapses in Woolpack and she’s convinced Ella is to blame.
As the drama unfolds, Chas and Liam get increasingly concerned about Ella’s string of harassment towards them both. She even throws Manpreet under the bus by informing the rest of the village about her posting photos of herself online after she asks Ella to move out.
Emmerdale airs on weekdays at 7:30pm on ITV1 and is available to stream on ITVX.
