Ella Forster (Paula Lane) will face a dramatic showdown in tonight’s episode of Emmerdale.
The character departed the village a few days ago after being accused of drugging Chas Dingle (Lucy Pargeter). She is back in the Dales because Ella is determined to get Liam Cavanagh (Jonny McPherson) to believe that she is innocent.
Following reports that Paula Lane has left the ITV soap, the scenes that air tonight will eventually result in Ella’s storyline concluding.
But is there any chance we will see her again?
Here’s everything you need to know.
Is Ella leaving Emmerdale?
Yes, Ella Forster is leaving Emmerdale for now.
Tonight’s episode of the ITV soap is available to view on ITVX right now, which means you will be able to see how Ella’s final scenes play out, before it airs on TV.
Due to how Ella’s story with Liam and Chas concludes, it is safe to say we won’t be seeing the character for a little while.
Will Paula Lane return to Emmerdale?
Paula Lane’s exit was revealed in December last year. For those who wish to watch tonight’s episode on ITV, we won’t reveal what happens to Ella in great detail, but we will tell you she isn’t being killed off.
This, of course, gives Paula Lane the opportunity to return to the show and reprise her role.
Who did Ella Forster kill?
The main focus of Ella’s time in the village has been her attempting to live a normal life after killing her best friend.
Ella killed Joanne when they were children during a state of jealous rage. She was sent to prison but when she was released, she changed her name to eliminate the chance of people finding out who she really is.
While the Emmerdale residents eventually came to accept Ella, she has been isolated as a result of everyone thinking she did spike Chas.
