Tonight’s episode of Emmerdale saw traumatised Steph Miligan apparently leave the village after her parents shared the full truth about Anthony and his evil past.
In a jam-packed series of revelations for the family, Steph discovered that Anthony is actually her biological father, that he’d sexually abused her mother as a teenager – and learned that Ruby had killed him too.
The bombshells kept dropping tonight (Friday, March 14) as Caleb and Ruby decided to fill her in on the full story – including the part where John had covered up the murder and buried him in the woods.
Steph ‘left’ the village in Emmerdale tonight – but is she gone for good?
Understandably, this was a lot to process for Steph, who had to balance her sympathy for her mum (it’s about time!) with what this meant for her and the person she’d always assumed she was.
Caleb tried to help his daughter understand that she was still, well, his daughter. And for a moment there, it seemed as though he’d gotten through to her.
However, the news was ultimately too much for Steph, who decided to leave the village. As they received the news, Ruby broke down in tears, fearing she’d now lost her daughter forever.
But is that it for Steph? Has she left the soap for good?

And, as the story continues next week, Emmerdale spoilers reveal that Jai begins to catch on that something’s amiss.
Growing resentful that Caleb and Steph aren’t pulling their weight at work, Jai is determined to bring Caleb down a notch.
