April Windsor (Amelia Flanagan) is so close to being back on her feet but a completely chance encounter will set her right back to square one in Emmerdale.

Her time on the streets has left her with a dark past, of which dad Marlon (Mark Charnock) only knows a smidgen.

Since returning to the village, she’s battled the loss of her stillborn baby, been shunned by her friends at school, and now she’s feeling the impact her time away has had on her prep for her GCSEs.

As she goes to sit her exam, she’s completely overcome with panic. Belle (Eden Taylor Draper) gently suggests redoing the year might be her best bet.

While April figures it all out, she decides she wants a summer job and Belle is there to help – offering her a trial shift at take a vow. It’s the perfect distraction while giving her a slice of normality.

Her trial involves filming a Christening, simple enough. The job is just what she needs to get her back on track, but there’s a cruel twist ahead.

As the Christening gets going with April filming the beautiful event, the teen finds herself suddenly frozen with fear as she recognises the baby’s father.

She’s suddenly transported back to her days on the streets when a vile man threatened to urinate on her. The baby’s dad is that man.

Marlon and Mary (Louise Jameson) are completely oblivious to April’s fresh turmoil as she struggles to continue with this man in her midst.
