EMMERDALE fans call out major blunder after the truth about Ella Forster's past was revealed. The receptionist - who is played by actress Paula Lane in the ITV soap - has been hiding a series of secrets since arriving in the village last year. Last night that all came to a head when her lies were exposed and the truth about her emerged.
Viewers know that Ella had been visiting an old lady called June, who sadly died, and she let Manpreet Sharma believe June was her mother. She begged her to keep it a secret but a grief-stricken Manpreet, fresh from the death of her stepson Ethan, decided to tell Ella’s boyfriend Liam so he could support her at the funeral. Turning up at the grave while the funeral went on inside, Ella spoke to the open plot.
“I know you wouldn’t want me here but I had to,” she said. “It wouldn’t have been right of me to go in there. I don’t want to hurt anyone, not again.
“Even this is more than I deserve, I hope you find some peace now. Both of you. I’m so sorry for everything.
” She watched from afar as the funeral moved to the graveside and Liam appeared amongst the mourners. Trying to will him to leave, Ella watched in horror as the service ended and one of the other mourners approached him asking who he was. As Liam tried to explain that he was June’s daughter’s boyfriend, the man lost his temper, shouting: “Is this a joke? “I thought you might be press but are you demented? June’s daughter’s dead, she’s lying right there.
