ITV Emmerdale Dawn Fletcher’s fate ‘confirmed’ and Joe Tate will be speechless

Emmerdale viewers believe they’ve “uncovered” Dawn Fletcher’s fate, and Joe Tate will be speechless.

Soap fans have witnessed how earlier this year, Dawn (Olivia Bromley) embarked on a scandalous affair with villain Joe (Ned Porteous).

Dawn decided to break things off with her devastated husband, Billy (Jay Kontzle), who later found out about her secret romance after Joe threatened Dawn and Billy’s daughter, Clemmie Reed (Mabel Addison).

Upon discovering Joe’s coercive tactics, a raging Dawn took matters into her own hands during Lydia Dingle’s (Karen Blick) 50th birthday party, which ended with her pushing Joe out of an upstairs window.

The fall left Joe with serious injuries, including a fractured pelvis and brain haemorrhage, necessitating his placement into a medically induced coma, reports Leicestershire Live.

Joe has since woken up and made his return to Home Farm, where he and Dawn have rekindled their romance.

Billy, upon realising Dawn’s enduring affection for Joe despite his actions towards Clemmie, declared his intention to fight for sole guardianship of their children.

“I don’t trust you anymore, Dawn. You’ve lied to me, you’ve lied to the kids, and you’re happy to live here with the guy who threatened our daughter!” he said last month.

“I do not know you anymore… I want full custody of our kids, they’re not staying here in this toxic environment!”

In last Thursday’s episode (May 29), viewers saw Joe make Billy an enticing offer outside the depot.

“Dawn’s worn out, Billy. She just wants an arrangement that works for everyone… I know you and I will never exactly be friends, but that doesn’t mean that we have to be at each other’s throats every second of every day,” Joe remarked.

Joe then shared that he had a friend in Liverpool who was starting a chain of gyms, and urged Billy to be the face of his operation.

But Billy was sceptical of Joe’s friendly gesture, retorting: “You really think you can throw some money at me, there’s no tune that you can play that I’m about to dance to.”

The situation escalated when Joe insulted Billy by calling him a “loser”, prompting an outraged Billy to knock Joe from his wheelchair.

Fueled by anger, Billy then issued a stern warning: “My family, they’re everything. Mess with me or my kids again, and I’ll k.i.l.l you.”

Joe Tate recently gave Billy a job offer

Now, Emmerdale viewers have taken to social media to share their theories that Dawn might leave Joe to try and get back with Billy, who could potentially reject her.

“Can’t wait for everything to come crashing down on Dawn,” one person wrote on a Facebook fan page.

“Something will happen and she will run back to Billy who won’t want her,” another added, while a third said: “She is heading for a big fall.”

A fourth viewer echoed the sentiment, saying: “I feel so sorry for Billy. Can’t wait for it all to come crashing down on Dawn and Joe.”

Meanwhile, another fan believes that Joe will turn on Dawn in upcoming scenes: “I’m hoping Joe is using her for some reason. Maybe to get ownership of the big house?”

Emmerdale airs weeknights on ITV1 at 7.30pm and is available to stream from 7am on ITVX
