In a new fan theory, it seems the Emmerdale cast could be about to get another shakeup as many predict Beth Cordingly’s Ruby may not be around much longer.
Ruby Fox-Miligan came to the village at the beginning of 2024 and it’s safe to say she hasn’t had a quiet time.
Since arriving in the village, Ruby has been at the centre of many storylines. Her time on the show has seen her team up with Kim Tate, make enemies and even included a hit and run.
Ruby’s current storyline
Most recently she has been at the front of a storyline that saw her daughter and father arrive to the village.
While Ruby was thrilled about Steph’s arrival, it hasn’t been smooth sailing. Steph will only forgive Ruby and Caleb for her upbringing if Ruby forgives Anthony for hers.
This is proving to be a struggle, and while she has given reasons for her feelings towards Anthony, flashbacks will soon reveal the whole truth.
The current storyline puts her in the spotlight, and viewers are enjoying it (except for the part where she slept with Cain).
But according to a new fan theory, she may be the next Emmerdale character that leaves.
Fans predict Emmerdale exit for Ruby
The Emmerdale cast seems to be getting smaller very quickly with all of the upcoming exits.
In a new Reddit thread viewers were discussing Ruby’s storyline, and one predicted it will result in Beth Cordingly bowing out of the role.
“I think at this rate she’s for the chopping block sooner rather than later. However I think she’s interesting and better than Caleb,” they wrote.
Despite the new theory, that didn’t stop others from admitting they love her character.
One added: “I absolutely adore Ruby. One of my favourites! Just the right level of mischief, but also deep vulnerability. There is quite a lot about to come out about her past which will add loads more layers.”
Another expressed their concerns for the storyline. They penned: “I love her but they are rushing everything. The Steph arrival with the grandad straight after. They should have unpacked more with Steph first. Then brought Anthony in. Added with the cancer, the flashbacks etc I feel like they should steadily pace it. But it feels rushed.”
However despite everyone agreeing they were enjoying watching her at the minute, one viewer admitted they wouldn’t mind seeing her leave.
They commented: “I would happily see Ruby gone.”
With more secrets about to be revealed to viewers, will Ruby remain in the village?
