Joe abandoned Dawn in Emmerdale spoilers

Dawn and Joe’s steamy affair came to an abrupt end last month after he fled the Dales. Dawn thought she’d just been dumped – which she had – but the truth behind Joe’s abandonment was a lot more complicated. And sinister.

Unbeknownst to her, Joe had gone on the run after illegally stealing Caleb’s kidney and undergoing life-saving surgery. He and co-conspirator Dr Crowley feared the police were closing in on them, particularly after Caleb’s attacker Shaun was released from custody. Joe ignored Crowley’s medical advice to stay close and decided it was safest if he jetted off to Dubai.

It seemed he wasn’t planning on coming back either after deleting Dawn from his phone contact list. But absence makes the heart grow fonder, and Joe has now returned with the hope of getting his girl. But will Dawn forgive him for running out on her?

Dawn realises she’s still in love with Joe

Kim is not happy to see Joe back at Home Farm, particularly as she’s been working so hard to try and fix Dawn and Billy’s marriage.

During a heated confrontation, Joe insists he’s sincere about wanting a future with Dawn. He also declares he’s going to do whatever it takes to win her round, and there’s nothing Kim can do to stop him. We wouldn’t be so sure about that one, mate.

Later, Joe gets Dawn alone and all her old feelings come flooding back. Cocky Joe insists she’s still in love with him, and Dawn knows he’s right. But there’s just one problem standing in their way now – her hubby Billy.
