Emmerdale has appeared to confirm who Will Taylor’s blackmail is – and it’s not someone fans ‘didn’t suspect at all.’

Fans will recall that Will (Dean Andrews) has been blackmailed by a mysterious person ever since he slept with his ex, Rose (Christine Tremarco.). Rose had rocked up to the Dales this year and appeared to turn up in a bid to rekindle things with her estranged family – including daughter Dawn (Olivia Bromley)

However, it was revealed that Rose was in cahoots with Ruby (Beth Cordingly) to take down Kim (Claire King). Kim eventually found out that Rose was out to get her – and forced Rose out of the village.

However, things took an unexpected turn when Rose disappeared – with Kim and Will thinking either one of them murdered Rose. The truth came out though that Rose was alive, with daughter Dawn fuming after finding out about Will’s lies. As a result, she and Billy (Jay Kontzle) moved out of the Home Farm.

However, recently, Will started receiving threats for money. It all started with a bouquet of flowers that Will received that had a note attached that read: “I know what you did”.

Things then escalated when the blackmailer kept sending more cryptic messages, and last week, they started to demand cash – or they would reveal all about Will’s night of Passion with Rose.

Now, following spoilers for next week, fans are certain they know who is behind Will’s blackmail. In the Dales next week, Will panics when his mystery blackmailer increases their cash demand to £50,000.

Meanwhile, Dawn comes across Billy’s secret stash of cash that she knew nothing about. She confronts Billy who wins Dawn over by claiming that he was saving up for a surprise.

Later though, it’s clear that Billy is not telling the truth as he calls up mystery contact, and asks them for more work. Now fans are certain that it is Billy who is blackmailing Will.

On an Emmerdale Facebook fan page, one post discussed Billy’s mysterious behaviour next week on the soap. One person said: “Oh dear, he’s the blackmailer, what a shame had turned into a nice guy!”

A second agreed and penned: “Will’s blackmailer.” A third chimed in and wrote: “He might be the blackmailer on Will.” Another said: “Aahh so it’s Billy who’s the blackmailer! I didn’t see that coming. They will need the money for the rent once it’s run out after 4 months upfront payments.”

A fifth wrote: “They made it too obvious to be Kim. If it is Billy I never suspected him but it’s more believable now for him to be involved.” A sixth proclaimed: “Yes think he might be the one blackmailing will.”
