They might be arguing now, but Emmerdale fans are sure Dawn Fletcher and Joe Tate’s hate will soon turn to passion!
Joe returned on Christmas Day and witnessed the death of Dawn’s dad Will Taylor.
Dawn is convinced Joe, who was plotting with Will against Kim,was responsible for killing her father.
Joe has maintained his innocence and is trying to prove he’s just there to support his family. But does he have his eye on Dawn too?
Joe Tate’s return
In amongst the chaos of Christmas Day in Emmerdale, Joe made a shock return to the village. He made a comeback as part of his scheme to take Kim Tate down, after she attempted to have him killed six years ago.
Following Joe’s arrival at Home Farm, he exposed Will’s involvement in the revenge plot. This led to a row between Kim and Will, who begged for her forgiveness having changed his mind on the plan.
Will then suffered a heart attack, leading to him later being pronounced dead. Following this, Dawn and Billy have grown suspicious of Joe, with the couple wondering if he was involved in Will’s death somehow.
Emmerdale fans predict an affair is on the cards
Despite Dawn’s hostility towards Joe in Emmerdale, fans have predicted the two could embark on an affair behind Billy’s back.
Taking to social media, soap fans predicted things are going to take a turn for Dawn and Joe. One person said: “How long before Dawn and Joe are having an affair?” while a second agreed, commenting: “I give it a couple of episodes before Joe and Dawn…?”
“I can see Joe pursuing Dawn at some point… It just makes sense which makes me worry for Billy,” reasoned a third. A fourth speculated: “I sorta need Joe to have affair with Dawn and Gabby.”
However, some think Dawn could be the one to take Joe down. A fan commented on social media: “If she takes down Joe Tate she will become my most disliked character.”
