1. April out of control in Emmerdale spoilers

Things are still tense between Marlon and April following the revelation about Donna’s death and Marlon trying to set Ross up. Marlon has found out April has been trying to buy cannabis and also that Ross is living rent free in Tall Trees.

At the end of his rope Marlon threatens Ross to stay away from April for good, believing her rebellion is all because of him. Ross is cruel to April later on, following through with Marlon’s wishes and she is distraught.

And it seems Marlon has only made things worse when April spirals even further out of control. She steals a bottle of wine from the pub and begs Cathy to drink it with her, but Cathy says no. Rejected April drinks it alone and makes a show of herself in front of Brenda, Bob, Wendy and Marlon.

Marlon is furious and when April then spills wine on Donna’s memory card, he lashes out. Snapping at his daughter, Marlon only serves to make the situation even worse.
