Beth Cordingly speaks out on Ruby and Cain cheating twist: ‘It’s bad. I’m scared’
The Ruby actress was as shocked as fans
In a twist that nobody saw coming (or wanted), Cain Dingle cheated on his wife while she was in brain surgery – with his sister-in-law Ruby Fox-Miligan.
Viewers were left shocked at the end of last night’s episode (November 20), as Emmerdale’s Cain and Ruby slept together. Many took to social media to display their anger at the storyline.
Cain and Moira have always been one of the biggest and strongest power couples in Emmerdale, but with this latest twist, everyone can’t help feeling very let down.
Throwing a cheating storyline in the middle of a powerful health storyline has upset fans. Not only that, but after all Cain and Moira have faced, and her previous affair with Nate, was it really necessary?
But it seems fans weren’t the only ones surprised by it, as Ruby actress Beth Cordingly has spoken out about her reaction.
As Emmerdale’s Cain and Ruby sleep together – actress speaks out
Taking to her Instagram after the episode aired, Beth posted a video to her followers. In the video she has a fearful expression on her face and admits: “I know. It’s really bad.”
She continued by worrying: “What’s going to happen when Moira finds out? I’m scared.”
Beth also mentioned Caleb’s reaction won’t be good, but admitted “Moira is probably more scary” between the pair.
The Emmerdale star went on to tell her followers what it was like when she first heard the news.
“When they told me in the storyline meeting that was going to happen, I literally went like this [Screaming]”, she confessed.
In the caption for the post, Beth wrote: “Tonight’s episode. I KNOW. Not a good idea.”
So it looks like even the cast weren’t too joyous of the storyline, and fans were quick to comment on her post letting her know what a shock it was.
One commented: “I’m actually unwell over it.”
Another predicted Moira’s reaction: “Hope you’re ready for a gift from Glasgow!”

How will Moira react?
It wasn’t long ago Moira accidentally tried to kill Ruby when she was hallucinating Emma Barton, so when she finds out what happened between her and Cain, the reaction could be even worse.
Both Emmerdale’s Cain and Ruby have been involved in huge storylines recently. Cain has been trying to deal with Moira’s brain tumour (Not very well). Last night was a Cain and Moira special, and although fans were angry with the ending, the first half, with the return of Moira’s dead daughter Holly, served as an emotional treat.
Elsewhere, Ruby’s daughter Steph, and her father, Anthony, have arrived in the Dales. While she is keen for Steph to stay, she’s determined to get rid of Anthony.
But with this latest Emmerdale twist, what does the future hold for Coira? Could she ever forgive Cain? And how will Caleb react when he hears his wife has slept with his brother?
