In Emmerdale spoilers for Christmas week, youngster April Windsor spirals out of control.

The teenager was left shaken last week after she was abducted by menacing Jade, over cash she thought Ross Barton had stolen.

As leverage, Jade dragged April to a location that was terribly familiar to Ross: a multi-storey car park where April’s mum and his ex, Donna, died in 2014.

And Emmerdale spoilers for later this month reveal that things are set to take a more dramatic turn for April…

Emmerdale spoilers: April spirals

Last week saw April’s life hang in the balance.  Rushing to the rescue, Ross managed to avert disaster – although this was more thanks to the arrival of Aaron and Mack, with Jade’s money.

Saved by Ross, April and Ross then headed back to the village. However, there was worse to come as she learned about the tragic circumstances behind mum Donna’s death.

Understandably, April was shaken to learn that her mother had taken her own life at that very same car park.

And fans will see another side to April later this month, as she struggles to come to terms with the past few weeks.
