Emmerdale Reveals Clues About Nate Robinson’s Killer as Hooded Figure’s Identity is Theorized
Emmerdale fans are buzzing with speculation after Friday night’s dramatic episode, which dropped major hints about the identity of the mysterious hooded figure.
As the episode concluded, Tracy Metcalfe (Amy Walsh) was seen in tears, leaving an emotional voicemail for Nate Robinson (Jurell Carter),
raising further questions about his fate.

While Tracy sobbed into the phone, telling Nate how much she missed him, a shadowy hooded figure lurked nearby, observing as police left the scene of the crash.

Notably, the body in the water remains undiscovered, fueling ongoing speculation among viewers.

In her message, Tracy heartbreakingly admitted: “Hi, Nate. It’s me. I don’t know what made me think I’d get through to you at this time, but maybe I was hoping you’d sense that I wanted to hear your voice. Look, whatever happened with us, whatever went wrong and… just… there was a crash and Suzy, Leyla, and Amy, they all died. And I just… and I just miss you so much.”
Prior to her tragic death on Thursday, Amy Wyatt (Natalie Jamieson) had hinted that Nate was the person found in the water, intensifying fan theories that he had been killed and dumped in the lake. Now, Emmerdale enthusiasts are debating who might be responsible.
Several suspects have emerged, including Caleb Milligan (Will Ash) and John Sugden (Oliver Farnworth). Caleb, who had a motive due to Nate’s affair with Tracy, was last seen telling Ruby (Beth Cordingly) that he had something important to do before leaving the house. Notably, he was spotted putting on a dark hoodie—matching the attire of the figure seen at the lake.
Viewers quickly took to social media to share their theories. One fan noted, “When Caleb left on tonight’s episode, he picked up a dark-colored hoodie and put it on, and that’s what the person standing by the lake had on at the very end.”
Another viewer agreed, adding, “I think it was Caleb looking at the lake at the end…” A third echoed this sentiment: “It looked like Caleb; he was wearing a dark hoody when he left Ruby.”
However, some fans believe there could be an unexpected twist. A wild theory has emerged suggesting that Tracy herself might have been involved in Nate’s fate. One viewer speculated, “So, did Tracy kill Nate?” Another responded, “Why did I not think of this?”
The uncertainty surrounding Nate’s whereabouts and the identity of the hooded figure has kept fans on edge. As the mystery deepens, viewers eagerly await the next episode to see if Emmerdale will finally reveal the truth about Nate’s disappearance.
