The emotional rollercoaster in Emmerdale is set to take a dramatic turn as Tracy Robinson (played by the talented Amy Walsh) takes a drastic step that will forever alter her relationship with the Dingle family. Next week, Tracy makes the shocking decision to ban the entire Dingle clan from attending Nate Robinson’s funeral, sparking an explosive chain of events that leaves the village reeling.

Still convinced that Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley) is responsible for the tragic death of her late husband, Tracy is overwhelmed by grief and anger, directing all of it toward Cain. She’s convinced that the Dingles played a part in Nate’s untimely demise, and as the day of the funeral nears, Tracy’s emotions reach a boiling point.

Belle Tries to Reason With Tracy, But Things Take a Dark Turn

In a desperate bid to get through to her grieving sister, Belle Dingle (Eden Taylor-Draper) tries to have a heartfelt conversation with Tracy, hoping to help her see reason. Belle points out that the true cause of Nate’s death is still a mystery, suggesting that blaming Cain might not be the answer. However, Tracy, consumed by her emotions, misinterprets Belle’s words and accuses her of siding with Cain—believing that Belle is somehow insinuating that she’s to blame for Nate’s death.

Enraged by the misunderstanding, Tracy lashes out, telling Belle in no uncertain terms that no member of the Dingle family will be welcome at Nate’s funeral. Belle is left speechless, stunned by the severity of her sister’s decision, and the rift between the two grows even deeper.

Cain’s Heartbreaking Realization

When Cain learns of Tracy’s decision, it hits him like a ton of bricks. He’s already dealing with the devastating loss of his son, and now the family he holds dear is being denied the chance to say their final goodbyes to Nate. Struggling with his own grief and the constant accusations of murder, Cain is left feeling more isolated than ever. The emotional strain on him intensifies as Tracy’s anger and guilt threaten to sever the remaining bonds between the two families.

Vanessa’s Struggle to Help Her Sister

Determined to find a way to mend the broken relationship between Tracy and the Dingles, Belle turns to their older sister, Vanessa Woodfield (Michelle Hardwick), hoping that she can change Tracy’s mind. Vanessa agrees to try, but as she talks to her sister, she is confronted with the heartbreaking truth of Tracy’s pain.

Tracy opens up to Vanessa, revealing the overwhelming guilt that has consumed her since Nate’s death. She feels as though she let him down during his life, believing that he had abandoned their daughter when, in reality, his body had been lying at the bottom of a lake for months. With this revelation, Tracy’s grief becomes even more poignant. She explains that the funeral is her one opportunity to make things right, to give Nate the farewell she believes he deserves. Vanessa, moved by her sister’s words, crumbles under the weight of Tracy’s emotional turmoil and realizes she can’t fight for Belle and the Dingles’ right to attend the funeral.
