As Dawn Taylor’s (Olivia Bromley) affair continues in Emmerdale, is Billy Fletcher (Jay Kontzle) about to do the same thing and have his head turned by someone else?

In tonight’s episode of the ITV soap, villagers gathered to say goodbye to Leyla Harding (Roxy Shahidi) and Amy Wyatt (Natalie Ann Jamieson), who died in the recent limo crash.

The instalment featured a narration from Leyla, as well as flashbacks that revealed three characters are hiding pretty huge secrets from their friends.

Tracy Metcalfe (Amy Walsh) has been stealing money from the shop till, Mary Goskirk (Louise Jameson) kissed Suzy Merton (Martelle Edinborough) and Manpreet Sharma (Rebecca Sarker) has been earning money through a site online.

And Leyla knew every single part of what they had been up to.

Judging by the events planner’s reaction, we can only assume Manpreet has been selling intimate photographs of herself, a bit like OnlyFans.

The episode ended with Manpreet standing alone in the street. She had received a concerning text, one that proved someone else knows all about her little side hustle.

In upcoming episodes, she remains on edge regarding the blackmailing.

Up at Home Farm, Billy is sensing something isn’t quite right in his and Dawn’s marriage.

Of course, it’s largely down to the fact she’s finding Joe Tate (Ned Porteous) a lot more exciting than Billy right now, but the poor man’s got no clue.
