Has Graham really left Emmerdale? Fans certain there is a twist ahead
Kim was distraught to see them both leave, but was it all a con?Graham Foster left Emmerdale last night (Thursday October 1) taking Baby Tate with him and leaving Kim Tate devastated to lose them both.
But fans are convinced that’s not the last we’ve seen of Graham or the baby. In fact, they are sure this a great big trick and actually something far different is going on.
Goodbye Graham and Baby Tate
Earlier this week Graham gave Joe an ultimatum: if he has the baby adopted, Graham would leave his life for good. Joe had been adamant he would not bring his and Dawn’s baby home as he blamed the child for ‘killing’ the love of his life.
Graham hoped his threat would cause Joe to reconsider. But alas, Joe remained firm. So Graham was forced to follow through and leave the village.
Kim begged him to stay, if only for her. But Graham knew he couldn’t. He forced devastated Kim to hand over the tot and she sobbed as they both departed.
Graham promised he would hand Baby Tate over to the adoptive family and make sure everything was set and then he left.
Kim was distraught, but she told Joe she supported his decision. She then and headed to the pub where she had a run-in with both Vinny and Lydia, acting like she didn’t care about the baby at all.
Has Graham really left Emmerdale?
Kim’s quick turnaround, even defending Joe’s decision to those who disapproved, has got fans thinking. That, coupled with the fact it was a bit of a “damp squib” of an exit for Graham after the fanfare of his return from the dead at the start of the year, has made viewers suspicious.
And it wouldn’t be the first time Emmerdale has tricked us this way!
“Surely that’s not it for Graham. He’s not even been back a year,” queried on fan on social media.
A second suggested: “Just a theory but does anyone else think that baby Tate isn’t being adopted? Graham hasn’t ‘delivered’ him to Social Services and that he is actually going to care for the little man himself until Joe finally wakes up and realises what he’s lost?!”
“We all know Graham won’t hand the baby to anyone. Cos he lost his wife and unborn child. Graham will raise the child himself,” agreed a third.
Someone else wrote: “They can’t have brought Graham back just for that damp squib exit surely… He must either have kept the baby himself or will turn out (god knows how) to be Thea’s Dad.”
The theory definitely holds water as another said: “I think the baby will be raised by Graham and he [will] be back soon when Joe thinks he’s made a big mistake.”
It seems no one is ready for Graham or the baby to leave. So let’s hope these theories are right!
