Emmerdale fans 'work out' paternity twist as father of April Windsor's baby 'revealed'
Emmerdale fans have been sharing their theories about who could be the father of April Windsor's (played by Amelia Flanagan) baby, and they think they have figured it out.
During last night's special episode, fans saw flashback scenes of April and what life was like for her on the streets. It was also revealed that she ran away from home because she was pregnant.
As the episode came to a close, April went into labour and ended up giving birth in the toilet of a gym. However, things took a heartbreaking turn when the teenager realised her baby was stillborn.

Ever since the tragic scenes played out, fans have been sharing their thoughts and theories about who the father of April's baby could be.
Some think Anthony (Nicholas Day), Ruby's (Beth Cordingly) dad, could be the father, although he died in scenes aired last week at the hands of his daughter.
Others have suggested Ross Barton (Michael Parr) or Samson Dingle's (Sam Hall) friend Josh (Osian Morgan), who appeared in the ITV soap last year.
One eagle-eyed fan noticed April mentioned a person called Avery - so could he be the real father?
Taking to a Facebook fan page, one fan theorised: "What about that thug that hung around with Samson as the father?"
"That's who I think it might be," another replied, while a third added: "She mentioned someone called Avery, he's probably the dad."
Echoing the same sentiments, someone else shared: "I also think the mention of Avery was significant."
"Samson's friend Josh, or could be someone from the villager," a fifth fan went on.
Throwing another theory into the mix, one stated: "Anthony or Arthur."
During tonight's episode, which is available to watch on ITVX, April is rushed to hospital after being found lying on a bench bleeding.
Her father, Marlon Dingle (Mark Charnock,) and Rhona (Zoe Henry) are relieved their daughter has been found but are heartbroken to learn April was pregnant and had given birth to a stillborn baby.
"It is good to see you are," Marlon began as his daughter lay in a hospital bed. "I am glad you are safe."
"Please, can I hold your hand," he sobbed as April nodded. "We don't have to talk just yet. I love you."
