There have been a lot of BIG storylines up front and centre in Emmerdale this week. But despite the non-stop action and all the drama, there were \u2013 as always \u2013 some things that just made no sense!<\/p>

<\/div><\/div>\n

Here are some of the things that have been bothering us in Emmerdale this week.<\/p>\n

1 Why was Ruby using the name Fox?<\/h2>\n

When Ruby and Caleb signed the contract with Kim<\/a>, Ruby made a point of signing Ruby Miligan, dropping the Fox from her name. It\u2019s a logical step. Of course she wouldn\u2019t want to bear the name of the dad who abused her so brutally. But what we were left wondering was why she\u2019d not got rid of Fox years ago.\u00a0 Perhaps when she married Caleb, all those decades ago?<\/p>\n

If it was Steph who\u2019d changed her name in the light of the revelations, it would make total sense. It\u2019s all new information to her. But Ruby\u2019s been carrying this secret for more than 30 years, signing her dad\u2019s name every time she put pen to paper.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re glad Ruby\u2019s ditched that part of her name, but it makes absolutely no sense to us that she\u2019s kept it for so long!<\/p>
