Viewers of Emmerdale met Lydia Hart’s sister last night – but many think she’s not actually Lydia’s sister at all!
They’re convinced she’s an imposter pretending to be Lydia so she can get money from Lydia’s mum, Agatha.
With Lydia wanting to know who her mystery benefactor is, Thursday’s episode of the soap (November 8 2019) saw her, along with Mandy, Vinny and Sam sneak their way into the solicitor’s office to get the information.
Mandy grabbed Lydia’s file, which revealed the £10k left to Lydia was from her mum, and she also asked for her address to be forwarded onto her daughter, who she hadn’t seen for years.

After discovering her mum lived in Hotten, just minutes away from the village, Sam and Mandy took Lydia to her mum’s address.
When she knocked on the door, she was greeted by a woman who claimed to be Agatha’s daughter.
Lydia explained that she was also Agatha’s daughter.
That’s when Lydia’s sister, who was named Beth in the credits, told Lydia that Agatha had passed away three weeks before.
When Mandy and Sam came to support Lydia, Beth’s demeanour completely changed.
Beth explained that before her death Agatha had read about Lydia in the paper, but Beth knew nothing about any money being sent.
When she shut the door on Lydia, Mandy demanded answers and was shocked that Beth didn’t want to get to know her sister.
But Beth was cold and told her she had read about Lydia burying her baby when she was a teen.
She then threatened them to get off the property before she called the police.

As they drove away, it was revealed to viewers that Agatha is alive and was upstairs taking a nap whilst all the commotion was going on.
She’s clearly pretending to be Lydia/Jenny!

One thing’s for sure, the drama is only just beginning for Lydia and her family.
So who is Beth? And why has she lied to Lydia about Agatha being dead?
