An Emmerdale star hints at a shocking twist as a character seeks revenge for past abuse

The Dales have been a whirlwind of emotions lately, especially for Ruby Fox-Miligan. She’s been dealing with painful memories of her father’s abuse from her teenage years. Fans saw her father, Anthony, stick around the village, but flashbacks revealed why Ruby wanted him gone.
While Ruby’s family is clueless about her past, she confided in Chas that Caleb might not be Steph’s real dad. As viewers piece things together, Ruby has asked for a DNA test to find out the truth.
In the next episodes, Ruby decides she doesn’t want to know the answer, but it’s too late. Caleb finds the DNA test results and is desperate for answers. Actor William Ash explained that Caleb discovers he’s not Steph’s father and starts to wonder who could be.
Caleb suspects a guy named Rob, who Ruby was close to growing up. He wasn’t a favorite of Caleb’s, but he’s the only one who fits the timeline. After talking to Chas, he realizes Anthony might be the father.
As Caleb confronts Rob, he learns Rob is gay and just a friend to Ruby. Meanwhile, Chas figures out that Anthony is the real father, shocking everyone.
Caleb talks to Ruby about his theory, and when she confirms it’s Anthony, he’s furious and wants revenge. Ruby begs him not to go after Anthony, but Caleb is determined to seek justice for her.
Now fueled by anger, Caleb gets a gun delivered to him, and a gunshot is heard just before Anthony’s body is discovered. While there are other suspects, things don’t look good for Caleb.
William Ash mentioned that Caleb isn’t a killer at first, but Anthony’s casual attitude about the abuse pushes him over the edge. He’s angry and ready to confront Anthony, which could lead to a dramatic showdown.
