After the truth was revealed about Caleb Miligan in Emmerdale he’s done a brilliant job of alienating everyone in the village. Despite no one wanting him there, he’s determined to stick around, but someone has taken action to ensure he’s gone for good when he was pushed off a ravine.
But, given he’s made an enemy of just about everyone in the entire village, it’s anyone’s guess as to who did it.
Fortunately we’re here to help! Here’s all the suspects and their motives for pushing him.
Emmerdale suspects: Kim
Everything Caleb’s done has been to spite Kim but it seems he’s finally met his match as Kim rumbled his plans.
Kim’s watched Caleb try to steal her money, set up fake business deals and be responsible for Nicky’s using of Gabby.
Kim has promised Gabby that she wouldn’t let Caleb get away with this. She said she had her gun ‘loaded’ and her finger was already ‘on the trigger.’
But, could Kim kill Caleb? Or would death be any easy way out for him? Does Kim have another form of punishment in mind or is she about to go in for the kill?
She seems the most likely culprit – is Kim guilty?
Will
The thing about Will is that he always protects his family. He’s not afraid to get his hands dirty and even buried Malone’s body just to protect Dawn and Harriet.
Also, not that long ago he could be seen kidnapping Dawn’s ex Alex and threatening him in the barn.
Will beat up Caleb’s associate, Adrian, proving that he can be violent. And, when Caleb told him that he’d get back what he’s owed, Will told him that he would ‘die trying’.
He starts acting very suspiciously in the wake of Caleb’s attack and even Kim starts to doubt him. However, she does give him an alibi – does he need it, though? Is it Will who gives Caleb that shove off the woodland ridge? We wouldn’t put it past him.
Emmerdale suspects: Gabby
Because of Caleb, Nicky’s broken Gabby’s heart. She had her dream wedding ruined after finding out that the man she was set to marry is gay. And, in love with someone else. Oh, and he’s also after her money.
Gabby also wasn’t shy in confronting Caleb and blaming him for ruining her day.
Gabby’s made it clear that she wants Caleb to pay for what’s he’s done to her. But, as Gabby feels as if her life has been destroyed, will she get her revenge and push Caleb?
Nicky
Nicky’s got every right to be angry at Caleb right now. He’s made him live a life of lies, forcing him to marry someone he had no interest in.
Caleb’s ruined Nicky’s relationship with Ally, has both emotionally and physically hurt him, and has been willing to throw him under the bus to protect himself.
But, will Nicky’s resentment of his dad bubble into an act of violence? Or, will Nicky make amends with his dad (after all he’s not got anyone else left by his side has he?)
Emmerdale suspects: Ally
Ally wanted to start a new life with Nicky, telling him to leave Gabby behind. Nicky eventually cancelled the wedding, albeit on the wedding day itself, but this wasn’t good enough for Ally.
When Ally found out that Nicky had been marrying Gabby to take her shares of Home Farm he couldn’t believe that Nicky could sink so low and told him that he didn’t know him anymore.
Ally then ended his relationship with Nicky. But, will Ally blame Caleb for ruining his and Nicky’s relationship because of his plan? Will he take revenge by pushing him off the ridge?
Leyla
Leyla’s been through a lot recently. She’s been shot, struggled with a drug addiction, has watched her marriage crumble, has been kidnapped and has almost lost son Jacob to a stab wound.
Now, Leyla finally thought that she’d found some happiness in Caleb. However, it turns out that he wasn’t the man she thought he was.
She’s both furious and heartbroken after discovering he slept with Charity while claiming to want her back. But, will this be the final straw? Is this finally the thing that makes Leyla lash out? Will she be the one to push Caleb?
Emmerdale suspects: Cain
Nobody messes with Cain. It wasn’t easy for Cain to let Caleb into his life so now that the truth has come out, Cain’s bound to want to make Caleb pay for making him look like a fool.
Cain’s already shoved Caleb to the ground, furious that he’s betrayed the family. It took a lot for Cain to team up with Kim, and viewers know all too well what Cain’s been capable of in the past.
And after yet another altercation in the village, where Caleb really let rip, Cain could easily kill Caleb. Moira is his voice of reason and Cain may be more cautious after everything that happened with Kyle and Al. Would Cain want to risk leaving his family behind and going to prison again? Could Cain push Caleb?
Moira
Let’s remember, Moira’s killed before and could easily kill again (remember Emma Barton?)
Caleb betrayed her trust, meddling with the farm’s machinery so that she’d be forced to sell the farm. He also made her risk losing Holly’s field, something that means the world to her.
At the end of tonight’s episode, Moira was furious with what Caleb had done to her family and the farm.
But, will she teach Caleb a lesson and attempt to finish him off? It wouldn’t be the first time she’s pushed someone!
Mackenzie
He might have committed himself to Chloe, but everyone can see he still loves Charity. And finding out she slept with Caleb was a blow to his ego and his heart.
Mack lashed out at Caleb and told him what he thought, but could he go one step further? If Caleb continues to rile him and rub salt into the wound, will Mackenzie hit out – quite literally – and push Caleb?
The vengeful ex
Some fans have theorised Caleb’s ex-wife is the culprit.
He’s already admitted if his plan against Kim failed, his former wife would lose her house. He’s treated their son, Nicky, dreadfully, and he recently confessed he’d cheated on his wife several times, including the day after their wedding.
Has this mystery woman finally had enough?
“Hear me out…. What if – just what if… the person who attacks Caleb isn’t in fact ANY OF THE EMMERDALE RESIDENTS‼️‼️ What if it was Caleb’s wife/Nicky’s mother who we haven’t met yet and she’s suspiciously introduced… or maybe we already know her,” shared one fan.
Could they be right?
