Joe has stirred up troubles since he stepped in the village—and the latest Emmerdale spoilers hint that his big secret will soon be out. Since the start of the storm between Kim and Will, he has been at the centre of the Home Farm. But it has always been pretty clear that he has kept a major secret—now, the time has come for his truth to get uncovered. What’s he hiding?

What’s Joe’s BIG Secret?

On Boxing Day, the day Will died of a heart attack, we saw Joe in immense pain. However, he hid it from everyone and chucked in some pills to ease the symptoms. Later, we even saw him lying down at the side of the bed with no clue of the cause.

Though the storyline’s complete focus was on Dawn and Kim’s storyline, we have been seeing Joe struggling with his health consistently. Remember the day when he tried to make things up with Noah? On that day, we saw him consuming pills.

Though we assumed for it to be some kind of addiction—when we saw him clutching his stomach out of pain. However, now, it seems like a major health crisis is on the horizon. This scene has made us and the other fans curious, and there have been speculations that Joe might need an organ. On X, fans suspected that Joe was probably trying to get a kidney from Noah, as they were related by blood. Maybe that’s the reason he has been putting in so much effort.

Joe Has A Health Crisis?

However, tensions are about to pace up in the upcoming episodes as Dawn finds Joe slumped in his car with pills all over. Dawn and Joe are trying to blow out the fire between them, but they have successfully failed. In the coming weeks, Dawn feels guilty and later decides to confess to Billy. But before that, she gets an offer from Kim to join the Home Farm Estates full-time.
