ITV Emmerdale tonight: Nate's fate is 'sealed' due to Moira's 'brain tumour'
Emmerdale fans have been left saying Nate’s fate is ‘sealed’ as they ask ‘what's wrong with Moira?’
As viewers of the ITV show will know, two characters were left in a life-threatening situation after a barn fire started in tonight’s episode. Before the blaze began, Caleb wrongly told Cain that Moira and Nate had kissed. After confronting his wife, Moira said that Cain was being “paranoid and ridiculous” however he continued to have his suspicions due to Moira and Nate’s previous affair.
Meanwhile Caleb confronted Nate and told him to “come clean”. But it was bad timing as Tracy came out of the house and broke the news to Caleb that she and Nate were planning on moving to Shetland. Her bubble was sadly shattered when Caleb stepped in and told her that Nate had “his tongue down Moira’s throat” the previous day.

As viewers will know - Moira and Nate didn’t kiss, however he accused her of being “weird” after holding a hug for too long. Moments after Tracy had received the news, Cain stormed into the house and punched Nate in the face and told him: “You’re not my son and you never were, I’d be happy if I never saw you again.”
As a result of the bombshell, Tracy backed down on her plans to accompany Nate to Shetland and instead, he was forced to say an emotional goodbye to their daughter. An angry Cain headed home and confronted Moira once again, which resulted in her slapping him, and Cain deeming their relationship “over”.
Ruby (Caleb’s wife) then arrived at the farm to confront Moira and seek revenge as she revelled in the heartbreak that the false claim had caused her. As Ruby started having a go, Moira could be seen zoning out with a can of fuel in her hand. Moira has been experiencing strange symptoms for several weeks, and while in the barn, she could be seen hallucinating as she thought that it was Emma Barton standing in front of her, not Ruby.
Shocked by Emma’s appearance, Moira became distressed as she told the hallucination she was “not listening”, and dropped a can of what appeared to be petrol on the floor in the process. A confused Ruby tried to calm Moira down, but the farmer was having none of it and she locked the barn door and grabbed a shotgun.

Moira shot at the light in the ceiling and sparks flew out, settling the fuel and hay bales alight. Ruby tried to grab the gun from Ruby and in the scuffle, Moira knocked her to the ground.
While this was going on, Nate could be seen telling John that he was going to go to the barn to “confront Moira face to face” and could be seen walking in the direction of the Barn. Before the end credits, Moira could be seen trying to wake Ruby up and she appeared to have no recollection of what she’d done. She could be seen breathing and zoning out yet again.
Fans of the show took to social media to say that Nate’s fate is ‘sealed’, as they predicted that he will be the one who gets killed in the fire. They also asked ‘what’s wrong with Moira?’ as fans guessed that all of her symptoms may mean that she has a ‘brain tumour’.
