In Tuesday night’s episode of Emmerdale (Tuesday, September 5), Craig forced himself on Lydia and raped her.
Lydia was traumatised and failed to open up to her loved ones about what happened.
A new Emmerdale fan theory now suggests that Lydia could end up pregnant after her rape horror.
Emmerdale: Craig raped Lydia
Earlier this week, Lydia couldn’t deal with nearly having kissed Craig and decided to hand in her resignation. However, she soon started to feel guilty when Craig explained how much their reunion meant to him.
Things took a horrifying turn though when Craig wouldn’t accept Lydia’s resignation and forced himself on to her.
He then raped her before acting as though he’d done nothing wrong, giving her a lift back home.
Once home, Lydia had told Sam and Mandy that she was going to take a shower before dinner. With this, she headed upstairs and showered. She then hid her clothes in a basket in the bathroom.
Struggling to process everything, Lydia ignored Craig’s phone call and prepared to go downstairs to face Sam, hiding the truth from him.
