Emmerdale fans are convinced they have worked out the identity of Jade’s mum as they have discovered a DNA link to another character from the soap’s past
Emmerdale viewers have been introduced to a new character, Jade, sparking speculation about her possible connections to past characters. Jade, portrayed by actress Twinnie-Lee Moore, is a boxing promoter who has entered into a risky arrangement with Billy Fletcher (played by Jay Konzle), leading fans to fear for his safety.
As is often the case with new arrivals in the village, fans are convinced that Jade is hiding something. One popular theory suggests that she could be the secret daughter of Caleb and Ruby Miligan’s mysterious child, Stephanie.
However, another theory proposes that Jade might actually be related to a different former resident.
In a potential twist, some fans believe that Jade could be revealed as the daughter of Sadie King, Jimmy King’s ex-wife, played by Patsy Kensit. Despite calls for Sadie’s return and speculation about Jade’s parentage, it appears unlikely that this will be confirmed, as it has been announced that Jade is only a guest character.
Taking to a Facebook fan page dedicated to the soap, one fan theorised: She’s Sadie King, ex of Jimmy King, it’s her daughter.”
Another agreed: “Now it’s saying she’s Sadie King’s daughter.”
A third suggested: “Seeing it has a link to a past character, perhaps she is linked to Zoe Tate. She might be the secret buyer of Home Farm.”
Someone else seems to think Jade could be Tom King’s (James Chase) sister. They wrote: “Tom’s sister is supposed to come so could be her and changed her name.”
“I say Tom’s sister, and she’s changed her name,” another echoed.
Speculation is rife about whether she’s keeping secrets about her identity or her reasons for arriving in the village. Imagine the drama if it turns out she’s related to a past character, potentially paving the way for their return?, reports the Mirror.
Meanwhile, Emmerdale viewers have been left fearing the worst for Billy after hints of a tragic end to his troubling storyline. With ominous remarks about not being able to shake him off and the danger of infection, fans are bracing themselves for a possible death.
Mackenzie Boyd (Lawrence Robb) has even voiced his concerns to a friend, believing he might be done for, while John Sugden, who attended to Billy’s injuries, cautioned that another hit could be fatal. The buzz among viewers is that a grim fate is being hinted at, with many predicting this plot will culminate in Billy’s departure.
Social media is abuzz with fan theories, with one viewer posting: “Billy will end up dead,” while another commented: “Billy is putting his life on the line.”
A third chimed in with: “Who gets paid when Billy inevitably dies?”
Emmerdale airs weekdays at 7.30pm on ITV.
