In this Friday’s gripping episode of Emmerdale, Dawn Fletcher was exposed

as harboring a dark secret, with fans increasingly convinced that her estranged

mother, Rose Jackson, might be involved. The plot thickened as viewers

uncovered troubling details about Dawn’s family and their past. Dawn, who has been struggling with the recent health crisis of her second son, Evan, has been hiding a significant secret. After Evan was diagnosed with cancer shortly after his birth, Dawn’s worries were compounded when she learned he would need additional rounds of chemotherapy. Despite this, she noticed some improvement in his condition. However, the real twist came when Dawn revealed to her father, Will Taylor, that Evan required a bone marrow transplant and that she suspected Rose, her long-lost mother, might be a match.

The revelation about Rose added a new layer of intrigue. Will, who knows that Rose disappeared after he and his wife, Kim Tate, intimidated her into leaving the village, started to panic. He was unaware that Dawn had been deceiving him about the situation. As the episode progressed, it became clear that Dawn was not as concerned about Evan’s health as she had led Will to believe. In a dramatic scene, Dawn was seen in a remote location, reading a text from Rose’s phone that Will had sent to her, all while receiving a call from an unknown person. During the call, she confessed to lying about Evan’s condition, saying, “I spoke to Dad. He bought every word.”

This revelation left viewers on edge, as they speculated about the implications of Dawn’s actions. Reactions on X (formerly Twitter) suggested that Rose and Dawn might be plotting revenge against Will and Kim. One fan suggested, “Dawn knew all along! Kim and Rose might team up for revenge,” while another theorized, “I think Dawn met up with Rose after Kim and Will left her stranded and now they’re both out for revenge.” A third viewer questioned, “Does Dawn know something about Rose’s disappearance?” and a fourth speculated, “Rose might still be alive and could have gone to Dawn for help.”

Theories abound as fans struggle to believe that Rose could be dead, despite her belongings being abandoned on the side of the road after her forced departure from The Dales. With such intense speculation and intrigue surrounding Rose’s fate, the stakes have never been higher, and viewers are eager to see how this revenge plot will unfold.
