Emmerdale Tina Dingle's second secret child 'revealed' - and she's in the village already
Emmerdale fans are convinced Tina Dingle has a second child - and they are already in the Dales.
The troublemaker (Samantha Power) rocked back up to the Dales last week, for the funeral of her dad Zak (Steve Halliwell), who sadly died off-screen and was brought back from Scotland to the Emmerdale village.
Tina was last seen in the Dales back in 1996, played by Jacqueline Pirie. However, following the news of Zak’s death, Tina returned last week and ruffled plenty of feathers at the funeral.
There were soon fireworks for the Dingles, as Tina started insulting the family, overshadowing Zak's send-off. She also shamelessly tried to claim she had dibs on the family’s home.

Tina - who was on tag - was eventually carted off by police - but during Monday’s episode (October 21) she was back in the village. And in a shock twist, it was revealed that she is actually the biological mum to Vinny (Bradley Johnson) who Mandy (Lise Riley) adopted.
Mandy brought up Vinny for most of his life, after she struck up a romance with his father, Paul Ashdale (Reece Dinsdale). Since then, Mandy has thought of Vinny as her son, and he’s always considered her to be his mum. However, in what would be another huge twist, fans are certain Tina has another secret child - and it’s a familiar face to fans.
Rushing over to an Emmerdale Facebook fan page, one person said: “Mandy is the only Mum Vinny has known . Tina isn't nice she's spiteful and is just after what she can get and cause trouble.”
Someone replied: “I think she has a few more children.” Sharing their thoughts on who it could be, viewers think Amelia Spencer (Daisy Campbell). A third person mused: “Definitely! Wouldn’t surprise me if it’s Amelia - both nasty characters!"
Another questioned: “How would that work though?,” as they explained: “You know what soaps are like, anything can happen.” A fifth excited fan wrote: “I would love for this to come out, I can see it now!” Someone else penned: “100%.”
Teasing what viewers can expect, Samantha said of Tina: "Well, she has no filters, and she will literally do anything to make sure she gets her way, including her claim to the house. She is not one to be trusted! I loved it!" She added: "She is feisty, bolshy, selfish, and she always seems to have an agenda and won’t stop at anything to get what she wants!"
