Emmerdale star Will Ash has hinted that Caleb Miligan's betrayal with Sadie King could be revealed to his wife Ruby at Christmas, amid Joe Tate's revenge plan.
Ash, who plays Caleb, teased that festive scenes could see a ticking time bomb explode. Caleb has cheated on Ruby with Sadie King, who seduced him while teaming up with Joe Tate.
Joe wants revenge on Caleb and Ruby, blaming them for the death of his partner Dawn Taylor this summer. So far, Sadie and Caleb are keeping their fling a secret, despite Joe setting out to prove they have slept together.
Joe Tate's Revenge Plan Continues
Ash warned that Joe will not be leaving his uncle alone any time soon and will continue with his plan. It has been heavily hinted this will carry on into Christmas, and this could be when the secret eventually comes out.
Asked if it was going to be an exciting Christmas on the show, Ash said: "It is definitely. You've got this secret that's kind of [a ticking time bomb]. He's working overtime between now and forever to kind of keep it under wraps."
"It's inevitable that it's going to get out, but because he's naive and he's working really hard, he thinks he's going to be able to stop it."
No Coming Back for Ruby and Caleb
On Joe's continued antics not dying down any time soon, Ash added: "So not yet, he's circling. He's always kind of in for Caleb, you know what I mean, and all the Tate stuff, all the stuff that happened with Dawn. He's circling like a shark."
Ash warned there might be no going back for Ruby and Caleb once she finds out the truth about Caleb sleeping with Sadie. He explained: "I think it's like the betrayal is so much greater now this time. Their relationship became so strong after everything that happened with Anthony, and with Steph and all that kind of stuff, they've overcome so much."
"He's always been a bit of a philanderer. Ruby and certainly Caleb as well thought they'd put all that behind them. So for something like this for Ruby, on the surface how it looks, that he's just slept with her, you know what I mean. It depends how Ruby sees it I think, but I think she'd definitely kick him out. I don't think there's any coming back from that."
It could all come out at Christmas, while Sadie's exit from the show is meant to be airing around January or February time, as actress Patsy Kensit is filming until December. Emmerdale airs weeknights at 8pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
