Emmerdale has confirmed the exit date for Celia Daniels and Ray Walters, as their reign of terror in the village comes to an end. The mother and son duo have been running a modern slavery ring, involving teenagers April and Dylan in drug dealing, causing fear for Marlon and Rhona.
In a recent episode, Ray revealed to April that they plan to leave the village on January 1st, urging her to enjoy her last Christmas. Celia, played by Jaye Griffiths, had earlier shared their intention to move to a new area due to complications, including Ray falling in love and Moira asking too many questions.
Actress Jaye Griffiths expressed sadness at leaving the role, describing her time on the show as 'heaven'. She praised the storyline as a strong arc and enjoyed exploring a character who is unafraid and indifferent to others' opinions.
