EMMERDALE viewers think the soap has hinted a secret affair between two unlikely characters
from before one of them was brutally killed off.
Fans saw Suzy Merton (Martelle Edinborough) die in the ITV soap’s horror limo crash aired earlier this month.
Suzy notably had a relationship with Vanessa Woodfield (Michelle Hardwick) during her time in the village.
But viewers think she may have secretly had an affair before her tragic demise.
Namely, with Mary Goskirk (Louise Jameson), who has mourned the loss of Suzy.
While Mary described Suzy as a “friend”, fans haven’t been left convinced.
One wrote on X: “#emmerdale Oh hello Mary…was suzy more than a friend…..”
Another added: “Yo Mary and Suzy have definitely had an affair or some kind of a moment..
“She was my friend” More than that love. #emmerdale.”
A third remarked: “Why do I get the feeling Suzy and Mary had a secret affair #emmerdale.”
It comes following viewers last year begging show bosses to write a “happily ever after” for Mary.
She and Suzy had grown close while Vanessa was away from the village, in Canada.
Emmerdale fans convinced they have worked out who else has died – and it’s not who you think
Mary failed to tell Suzy how she really felt when she asked her, after hearing Vanessa gush over her earlier in the episode.
Later, Vanessa and Suzy shared a kiss, but it wasn’t long before Suzy was glancing over at Mary.
This left Emmerdale viewers screaming for bosses to give the pub cook a happy ending.
In the preceding months, Mary had been conned by former love interest Faye Helders and left embarrassed after she shared compromising pictures of her around the village.
She also contended with daughter Rhona’s drama with her ex-partner Gus over baby Ivy, which was stressful for the whole family.
Taking to X – formerly Twitter – Emmerdale fans discussed the love triangle between the three women.
SOAP viewers are frequently left heartbroken after watching some of their favourite characters bite the dust.
Here is a list of the most devastatingthat have taken place in soapland over the years.
When she threatened to reveal the truth, Carla’s brother Rob got into a physical altercation with her.
Tina lost her footing and fell off a balcony – then warned Rob she was going to tell the cops he pushed her.
In a panic, Rob brutally clobbered her over the head with a metal pipe.
