Fans of Emmerdale have issued a warning to Ryan Stocks as his ex-lover and friend Gail returned to the village last night. Ryan was suspicious at seeing Gail again after so long – and for some reason. Many viewers felt that she might be hiding something.
Does Gail have an ulterior motive for returning to the village? And if so, is he in danger?
Gail returns to the village
Last night’s episode (Thursday, May 25) saw Gail pay a visit to old flame Ryan. As she joined him for a drink, Ryan was clearly suspicious of her motives.
I don’t trust Gail, there’s definitely a reason why she’s back other then seeing Ryan.
As they talked, tensions were high, and Ryan appeared to blame Gail for ‘ghosting’ him in the past. But Gail was keen to make it up to him, and Ryan’s mood softened as they chatted – thanks to some encouragement from Charity, who watched the scene unfold.
Gail hasn’t been seen or heard from since 2019. Last seen on the soap four years ago, she supported Ryan during his relationship to Dawn – before leaving abruptly.
Emmerdale fans predict ulterior motive for Gail’s return
Writing on Twitter as the episode aired, viewers shared their thoughts on Gail’s sudden return. Many felt that Ryan was right to be suspicious.
“I think Ryan’s friend is after his money or something,” said one fan.
