Emmerdale viewers divided over Isabel Hodgins’ new hair

Isabel plays Victoria on the ITV soap

| Updated:

Isabel Hodgins’ character Victoria Barton is set to return to Emmerdale next week after some time away and judging by spoiler pictures, she will be returning with a new look.

Isabel chopped her hair into a bob back in February, but now it looks like she’s gone for an even shorter haircut.

On a Digital Spy forum called: “Emmerdale: Isabel Hodgins’ hair?” users have posted their thoughts on her new haircut.

The forum started off with a user asking “Has the actress cut her hair shorter into a pixie? As next week’s spoilers look like it.”

Another user then posted: “Looks awful doesn’t it.”

A few disagreed however and put: “No it is nice and suits her.”

Another added: “Very chic” with a red love heart.

Some preferred Isabel with longer hair.

One user posted: “She shouldn’t have cut her hair it looked great long.”

Another put: “Definitely better than the bob! Miss her long hair though (always envious of anyone with long healthy hair).”

Over on Twitter, others were debating the new ‘do too.


One user, however, thinks the cut has a deeper meaning behind it than just a new look.

In an interesting theory, they think Victoria has cut it like her late mum, Sarah Sugden.

Sarah was killed in a fire started by Victoria’s adoptive brother Andy Sugden.

He set fire to the barn to claim on the insurance and solve the family’s financial problems.

Victoria was recently raped by a man named Lee who she met in the club.

Although she tried to keep it to herself and told everyone she had the flu, her ex-mother-in-law Moira could tell something wasn’t right and persuaded Vic to open up.

After going to the police, the chef took a pregnancy test and found out she was in fact pregnant with Lee’s baby.

She told her stepmum, Diane, brother, Robert, and brother-in-law, Aaron, what Lee did.

Robert and Victoria decided to get away for a while, telling Liv and friends and family that they had a sick relative to visit.

The brother and sister will return next week and Victoria tells her family she plans on keeping her baby.

Emmerdale airs Monday to Friday at 7pm with an extra episode on Thursday at 8pm.
