Emmerdale viewers are speculating about a potential comeback for one character, who is currently presumed dead.

In past episodes, Ruby (Beth Cordingly) was under the impression that she had murdered her own father, Anthony, following years of childhood abuse.

She received help from Aaron Dingle (played by Danny Miller), John Sugden (Oliver Farnworth), and her spouse Caleb (William Ash) to conceal the crime, with John allegedly disposing of Anthony's remains.
