Emmerdale mystery! Has David cheated on Tracy?
Emmerdale has hinted that David Metcalfe could have cheated on his wife Tracy.
David returned to the village following a work trip in Thursday night's double bill (January 18), but his shifty behaviour across both episodes made it very clear that he had something to hide.
As far as David's loved ones know, he's been away at a grocery convention and ignored many of Tracy's phone calls because he was so busy at the event.
However, eagle-eyed Emmerdale viewers will have spotted David (Matthew Wolfenden) looking guilty about his absence, as well as behaving strangely when he refused to take a phone call in front of Tracy later on.
All became clear when we later saw David on the phone to his ex-fiancée Leyla Harding, who recently left the village to take up a new work opportunity in Greece.
Seeming rattled as he spoke to Leyla, David said: "Hey, it's me. Yeah I know, I'm sorry. Well I was out, wasn't I? I couldn't answer. Yes, with Tracy.
"Leyla, I'm sorry, it has to stop. This has to stop."
We already know that Leyla had developed renewed feelings for David before she left the village, which led to him rejecting her twice.
But has everything now changed? Could David have been with Leyla in Greece when he was supposed to be at his "grocery convention"? If so, was he trying to warn Leyla off, or has he betrayed Tracy by giving into temptation?
With Roxy Shahidi – who plays Leyla – currently on maternity leave and not returning anytime soon, we suspect there's more to this scenario than meets the eye. But how long will we have to wait for answers over the latest intriguing Emmerdale mystery?
Emmerdale airs weeknights at 7pm on ITV, with an extra episode at 8pm on Thursdays.
