Emmerdale's Will Taylor is being blackmailed by a mystery person following his tryst with ex-flame Rose.
Fans have been speculating for weeks over who could be tormenting him, and next week's episodes promise to escalate the tension as Kim Tate is abducted. This Morning soap expert Sharon Marshall has now revealed who she thinks is as a potential blackmailer, hinting that the culprit might be hiding in plain sight, reports the Mirror.
On today's programme, Sharon teased: "Moira's having visions of Emma Barton. I don't know what's going on! I can tell you that Mack and John go into the barn tonight. Ruby's still in there, Moira's in there."
She also warned viewers to watch Will closely: "Also keep an eye on Will. He's supposed to give the blackmailer money but he gets caught up in this barn fire. That's going to lead to trouble. I can tell you next week, Kim gets abducted. Where is she? Or is it all some huge game? I'm thinking is it Kim doing Kim stuff?"

Will actor Dean Andrews has expressed his character's regret over the affair with Rose. He shared: "He realises it was a stupid mistake after a few drinks. Him and Kim had a little argument, a couple of little moments of arguing, she was away. That turned into that. He knows deep down that he loves Kim and he didn't want Rose."
Guessing who the blackmailed might be, Dean revealed: "He thought it was Caleb at one bit. He doesn't actually know."
Kim Tate, matriarch of Emmerdale, no dooubt has a hit list. Claire King, who portrays the iconic character, teased: "I can't wait. I have them all lined up. There will be a few that have wronged her in the last few storylines. There's Rose to sort out, Ruby, Will's got to have a bit of slap round the chops. There's a few. Probably Caleb is in there just for good measure. Maybe chuck a Dingle in."
King also reflected on Kim's recent softer side: "It has been a nice two or three years of playing happy families. I think that's always going to be within her (a darker side) and it is going to come out at some point. I fear for Rose and I fear for Ruby. It has been lovely to [be a nicer Kim] because, for a time, it was all hard, hard, hard as well as knockbacks, putdowns, one-liners, bitchings, snippings and revenge."
With Rose out of the picture and Ruby's fate potentially sealed by the barn fire, could Will be next in line for Kim's wrath?
