Emmerdale airs shock death in stunt week fallout as character left grief-stricken
Emmerdale's latest episode saw one character learn of a devastating death with them unable to say goodbye or get the answers they needed, unaware of a betrayal on the ITV soap
Ruby Miligan was left rocked by a shocking death twist on Emmerdale on Wednesday night.
Unaware of a betrayal at the hands of her husband Caleb Miligan, the character was left with sad news a week after she was almost killed in a barn fire during stunt week. While no one died in the blaze, there was a sad death twist this week instead.
Ruby had no idea her mother Helen Fox had reached out to her recently to break the news she was terminally ill. Caleb intercepted the call and warned her away before blocking the number.
On Tuesday Caleb went to see her, with her desperate to see Ruby and make amends. She also said she had something to tell Ruby but she wouldn’t tell Caleb what it was, while she also asked about Caleb’s AWOL daughter Stephanie who we are yet to meet.
But as Caleb left the hospital, he told her she needed to pay him £100k, or he wouldn’t tell Ruby about her illness. Helen agreed to this, and Caleb still said nothing.

Sadly on Tuesday Ruby got a call from the hospital alerting her to her mother being sick, with Ruby being told to get there as soon as possible. When she arrived she was sadly told her mother had already died, denying her of a goodbye and to find out what she wanted.
Caleb was watching on in secret having gone to see her herself, and then he lied about his whereabouts later on. As Ruby reeled over her mother’s death after being estranged for years, Caleb acted like he had no idea Helen was unwell or that she’d made contact.
Ruby confessed she’d always be wondering why her mum reached out then and what it was she needed to know. But will she find out Caleb’s betrayal, and how will she react?
