Emmerdale: Tracy finds out that Nate has left the village
Nate Robinson's unexpected departure has Emmerdale fans reeling, some believe he may not have even landed his supposed new gig in Shetland.
The character, portrayed by Jurell Carter on the ITV soap, was last seen over a week ago where he revealed his intentions to relocate for an exciting opportunity on a wind farm.
Excitement bubbled over when estranged wife Tracy (played by Amy Walsh) agreed to mend their union and embark on a new life together away from the village on the Scottish isle.
However, Nate faced Cain Dingle's wrath (Jeff Hordley), who under a misconception of infidelity with Moira (Natalie Robb), dealt Nate a brutal beating.
A severely injured Nate sought out Moira at the farm only to be interjected by John Sugden (Oliver Farnworth) who persuaded him against it, reports Leeds Live.
As calamity struck with a barn fire on Moira's property causing injuries and chaos, Nate resolved to leave the village and pursue a solitary future in Shetland.
But Emmerdale devotees are on edge, as Nate hasn't checked in post-departure, leaving his safety in question.
Amidst speculations on social platforms, one fan expressed concerns: "Something going on with Nate. Nobody can get hold of him but text messages. He seems kidnapped."
Fans were abuzz with theories and concerns on social media, as one echoed the sentiment: "So no one finds it strange that Nate hasn't contacted anyone!?", while another was left hanging: "Still waiting to find out where Nate is...."
Adding to the mystery, a viewer remarked: "I don't know what's happened, but Nate's exit was very strange, John is acting way too shifty and Moira could have done ANYTHING in the state she was in. Even shot her stepson...", stirring further intrigue among fans.
Speculation intensified with a comment from another concerned fan, pondering: "Is Nate really still alive or is he dead somewhere and someone has got his phone....."
Emmerdale airs weekdays at 7:30pm on ITV1 and ITVX, with an hour long episode every Thursday
