Emmerdale star Emile John has shared a new goodbye message following his exit as Ethan Anderson this week.
The character was killed off in tragic scenes that aired on Tuesday night (May 28), with Ethan collapsing as he prepared for his sentencing hearing over the recent Nicky Miligan car crash.
Father Charles later realised that his son’s death may be connected to Ruby Miligan’s recent hit-and-run against Ethan.
