Is Dylan April’s secret twin brother? Emmerdale fans predict huge twist

A new Emmerdale fan theory has emerged, suggesting that there may be even closer ties to April Windsor and young Dylan than we might have initially thought. With speculation growing as to whether he might have family in the village, some have wondered whether the pair might be related.

This came as Dylan left the village last night (Wednesday, March 12) after a guilt-ridden Marlon agreed to pay for him to go to rehab. Making up with April (who believed Dylan had stolen the ketamine), he headed off to get clean.

But, should he return, some fans have predicted that he might do so with a bombshell up his sleeve. Are Dylan and April related?

Emmerdale fans predict that Dylan and April are brother and sister

Writing on X as last night’s scenes aired, fans shared their theories as to Dylan’s ties to April. With many still convinced that Dylan is a secret Dingle, some took it a step further – suggesting he could be none other than her twin brother.

“Donna had twins and gave the boy to her ex and guess what it’s Dylan – Marlon’s secret son and Aprils twin brother,” wrote one fan.

“I bet Dylan has a photo of himself and April as baby’s before they were separated,” said a second.

“That’s crazy because thy actually do look alike,” another observed.

“I knew it,” said a fourth.

But is there any truth to the rumour?

Dylan the secret Dingle – the fan theory continues

Speculation as to Dylan’s heritage has been rife since he arrived in the village looking for April. And many are convinced that he’s the offspring of none other than April’s uncle, Eli Dingle.

Eli left the soap in 2010, but remains a popular character – currently in the thick of the action in this month’s Classic Emmerdale – and many are holding out hope that his legacy will live on in ‘son’ Dylan.

Marlon’s son, his nephew, or a complete stranger – who do you think Dylan is?
