Emmerdale: Gabby and Jamie

Last year, Jamie was presumed to be dead after crashing his car in a lake.

His car was found but his body was never recovered.

After Andrea Tate’s memorial, Kim became convinced her son was dead. But it was later revealed to  viewers that Jamie is alive and staying with his ex-mother-in-law Hazel.

Recently Gabby had a christening for her son Thomas and invited Andrea’s mother Hazel and Millie, who is Thomas’s half-sister.

Hazel feared Millie would tell Jamie’s family that Jamie is still alive and tried to keep Millie close to her.

However when Millie gave baby Thomas a secret message from their dad, Gabby heard through the baby monitor.

Later Gabby and Dawn went to Hazel’s and snuck into her house while no one was home and found evidence that Jamie is alive.

This week, Dawn and Billy told Gabby that a hooded figure was seen on Home Farm CCTV.

Gabby is convinced Jamie is back to try and take Thomas.

Rosie Bentham hints Alexander isn’t back as Jamie

Emmerdale has been dropping hints Jamie is back, however Rosie Bentham has hinted that Alexander Lincoln hasn’t reprised his role.

As reported in Metro.co.uk she said: “I think for the audience it’s been left as a ‘what’s going to happen?’ and I think it’ll be really good.

“I’d love to see Alex back, he is good fun, and it would be a lot of drama, which would be good.”

“He hasn’t even met the baby yet, so he needs to come back and be a dad.”

So if Jamie isn’t the hooded figure, who could it be?
