Spoilers: Liam accuses Ella of faking her pregnancy after it’s confirmed there’s no baby
Things get even worse for Ella
Next week’s Emmerdale spoilers see Liam Cavanagh on the warpath after he finds out Ella Forster isn’t actually pregnant.
The shock truth comes out at Ella’s baby scan, causing Liam to accuse his ex of making the whole thing up to trap him. But is there more to the sad situation than meets the eye?
Pregnant Ella looks to the future in Emmerdale spoilers
Ella’s return to the village has been nothing short of dramatic. After being involved in a car crash, the disgraced receptionist stunned Liam by revealing she was carrying his kid.
Liam didn’t respond well to the news and humiliated Ella by forcing her to take a pregnancy test. Despite all of this, Ella wants to make a future for her unborn child.
After booking in for a scan, Ella asks Mandy Dingle if she’ll hold her hand through the appointment. She also explains she’s undergoing a paternity test to prove to Liam the baby is his.
Liam has a change of heart
The day before her ultrasound, things take a turn when Ella starts experiencing stomach cramps.
She’s clearly in a lot of pain and Vanessa Woodfield advises her to go and get examined at the doctors. Ella visits the surgery and is seen by Liam, who checks her over.
The GP is still struggling to get his head around the idea of becoming a dad again. But after talking things through with Paddy Kirk, Liam gets a fresh perspective on the situation.
Seeking out Ella, Liam asks if he can join her at the scan, but she refuses to have him there. And who can blame her after his unkind behaviour!
Ella and Liam are rocked by baby bombshell in Emmerdale spoilers
A mix up with the transport results in Liam going with Ella to the hospital after all.
The former lovers are anxious as the sonographer takes a reading and flags up a problem. But then comes the big sucker punch – no foetus can be found.
Before anyone has the chance to explain, Liam jumps to the conclusion Ella must have invented the pregnancy.
After all, she has a track record of not telling the truth. And if she could conceal the fact she was a killer, Liam reckons it would be easy to fake a baby.
Seeing red, he accuses Ella of lying all along, pointing out that’s why she never wanted him at the scan.
Ella is public enemy number one
Back in the village, Liam is in bits as Paddy consoles him. Much like his mate, Paddy assumes the worst and is sickened how Ella could stoop so low.
With both men convinced Ella invented there being a baby to trap Liam, Paddy declares she’s truly unhinged.
But are they just assuming Ella’s a pathological liar without considering the other possibilities?
Did Ella actually invent her pregnancy? Or could there be another explanation? And will Liam be willing to listen?
