In a shocking twist on Thursday’s episode of Emmerdale, the storyline involving missing April Windsor took an unexpected turn.
Jacob Gallagher, a young doctor in training, was working a shift in A&E when he was startled by the arrival of a young woman who had been stabbed.
Although Jacob didn’t see the patient’s face, he found her purse and realised it belonged to missing April, leading him to fear the worst. He promptly informed April’s anxious parents, Marlon Dingle and Rhona Goskirk.
The worried parents quickly rushed to the hospital, only for their worst fears to be confirmed when the surgeon revealed that the patient had died during surgery.

However, upon identifying the body, Marlon and Rhona were shocked to discover that it wasn’t April but another person. This led to Jacob being severely reprimanded by hospital staff for breaching patient confidentiality and causing unnecessary distress to the parents, reports Leeds Live.
Twitter, now X, has erupted with theories on how the missing girl’s purse ended up in someone else’s hands. One user speculated: “My guess is April threw her purse away before she got in that car and somebody else picked it up #emmerdale”, another suggested: “I bet someone has stolen April’s purse or she’s lost it. #Emmerdale @emmerdale”, and a third posted: “Telling you, it’s not even April, I reckon it’s someone who stole her purse! #emmerdale”, whilst yet another added: “No way that’s April, someone’s knicked her purse clearly! #Emmerdale.”
It comes as April vanished on Christmas Day in scenes that pulled at the heartstrings. Marlon was stunned to find out his daughter April had fled in the emotionally charged Christmas episode. Future episodes will unfold the harrowing motives behind April’s abrupt departure, shedding light on a part of her life Marlon never knew existed.

The ITV soap has collaborated closely with Missing People to ensure an accurate and realistic portrayal of this hard-hitting storyline. Prior to her disappearance, April was seen waiting for an unidentified person.
A vehicle soon arrived and without a word, April climbed into the back and was driven away. Since then, they have discovered a secret social media account, which April had been using under an alias, with a video showing her drunk at a party.
