ITV Emmerdale legend's exit 'sealed' as fans fear for their life after 'stalker twist'

Emmerdale: Ella Forster kisses Liam in front of Chas

Emmerdale viewers are worried for the safety of Liam Cavanagh, played by Jonny McPherson, as his ex-girlfriend Ella Forster, portrayed by Paula Lane, seems to be developing an unhealthy obsession with him. In recent episodes, Liam ended his relationship with Ella to pursue a romance with Chas Dingle, played by Lucy Pargeter, after they confessed their feelings for each other and shared a kiss.

Despite ending things with Ella, Liam has not disclosed his interest in Chas, leading to secretive meetings with his new love interest that have not gone unnoticed.

Ella, who has a dark history involving the murder of a childhood friend at the age of 11, seemed to have turned over a new leaf as an adult. However, during Wednesday's episode (November 27) of the ITV soap, Liam appeared apprehensive as Ella began monitoring his every move.

Liam informed surgery receptionist Ella that he needed to step out of the practice for a short period, but she attempted to thwart his plans by arranging a 'last minute appointment', leaving him perplexed. An irritated Liam demanded that Ella contact Manpreet (Rebecca Sarker), and as he left the surgery, she followed him until she was distracted by Brenda (Lesley Dunlop).

Later at The Woolpack, John (Oliver Farnworth) stumbled upon Chas and Liam sharing a passionate kiss and urged them to inform Aaron Dingle (Danny Miller) and Ella about their relationship before they hear it from someone else, reports Leeds Live.

Liam returned to the surgery only to be interrogated by a suspicious Ella, as she had doubts about his whereabouts. When her curiosity led her to unveil Liam's deceit, finding that his supposed 'patient' was actually in Rome, it sparked theories among Emmerdale viewers of an ominous twist possibly placing Liam in peril.

On social media, fans expressed their unease and hypotheses about Ella's 'true' intentions. One viewer posted on X (Twitter): "The psycho in Ella is coming out...#Emmerdale". (sic)

Someone else chimed in with humor and a hint of concern: "Ella really over stepping her duties to find out what Dr love rods up to", accompanied by knife emojis to underscore the potential threat. (sc)

Speculations of Ella's capability for violence were fueled by another comment, which read: "Ella going to do another murder? #Emmerdale." (sic)
