Tina Dingle has a secret in the village – and Emmerdale fans quickly worked out what it is
Emmerdale fans have been left saying ‘I knew it’ after they ‘worked out’ the identity of Tina Dingle’s secret son.
As viewers of the ITV soap will know, Tina Dingle made an appearance in the village last week as the Dingle family continued to mourn the loss of their patriarch, Zak Dingle. In Monday night’s episode of the show, she stormed into Mandy’s salon where she confirmed that she was staying in the village due to having ‘interests’.
She mentioned that she was sticking around to claim her share of Zak’s house, before she alluded that there were more important reasons she wanted to stick around. As Mandy began to look concerned and fearful about what Tina was speaking about, she went on to threaten her cousin. Tina said: “What’s mine is mine. I’ve come for my house and my son,” as it was confirmed that Vinny Dingle is in fact her child.
It was clear they were hiding something before Mandy sobbed, as Tina made everything clear. She was heard commenting about Vinny Dingle and how he “liked her”, which left Mandy nervous. She then dropped hints that she had lost time with Vinny before making the son comment.
Viewers were left saying ‘I knew it’ after the bombshell was dropped, as they took to social media to share their reactions. On X, formerly known as Twitter, @FreakyLilReader wrote:” Knew that was coming. Vinny’s real mum. #emmerdale.”
@IrmaGrace26 said: “Oh So Vinny IS really a Dingle #Emmerdale,” and @pam_debeauvoir added: “The secrets just keep on coming. Now Tina has thrown her hat into the ring and claims Vinny is her son #Emmerdale.”

@LoveSoapsntv said: “We already knew Mandy wasn’t his mum his mum being Tina makes so much sense don’t really get why y’all are complaining #Emmerdale.”
