What happened to Holly?

Holly Barton in Emmerdale died in September 2016.

She became addicted to drugs, but eventually got clean after her parents did all they could to help.

She went on a methadone programme and got a job at the factory.

When her dad, John, died she relapsed, but insisted it was a one-off. She later left the village for a fresh start in London.

Holly returned in 2016 in debt due to being back on drugs. She quickly became infatuated with Moira’s husband, Cain, and when he rejected her she relapsed on heroin again.

She got clean once more and bonded with fellow addict Jai Sharma. The couple started a relationship and Holly began a photography business.

When they attended a wedding together, Holly relapsed again.

This time it killed her.

Moira found her daughter’s lifeless body the following morning.

The tragedy is never far from Moira’s mind. Will the revelation that Suzy knew her daughter stir up all sorts of pain for Mrs Dingle? And will she work out what Leyla’s been up to once she realises?
