Emmerdale Moira Dingle's sad update confirmed after 16 years as fans work out what's next
ITV Emmerdale saw Moira left worried about her future on the farm on Monday
Monday night's Emmerdale saw Moira Dingle devastated over yet more bad news. The fan favourite character, played by Scot Natalie Robb, had been left panicked during a previous episode after she found a potentially dangerous and serious leak in a slurry tank as the ongoing plot surrounding John Sugden and Mackenzie Boyd's feud continued.
John had opened the tank up to wreak havoc as part of his twisted revenge plot an caused devastation for Moria's farm. When she discovered the leak, John was pleased to see Mack get the blame.
However, even more consequences of the attack on the farm machinery was the revelation by Cain Dingle that the slurry had affected the main water supply for the bilge, leaving John's nephew Harry in hospital after he drank the contaminated water.
On Monday, as Harry was still on a drip in the hospital, Mack was isolated by the villagers as they bleed him for the health crisis.
Moira was then given even more heartbreaking news as it was revealed she could lose the farm after 16 years because of the slurry spill clean-up costs. Her insurance firm was refusing to cover it, meaning she may be forced to close the business.
Emmerdale fans took to social media to share their thoughts on the events as one said: "What will happen to Moira? will there be criminal charges.'Another said: "She would be better off selling the place, not making any money.'
Meanwhile, Moria recently discovered her nephew Ross Barton has a long-lost secret half-brother, Lewis Barton. She found a letter for 'The Family of Emma Barton' just last week, reminding viewers of he fact that it was Moira who was responsible for evil Emma's death back in 2017.
Moira, despite being worried about the repercussions, told Ross and he decided to meet Lewis.
Ross struggled to address Lewis' tough questions about their shared history without unveiling the troubling family secrets he's been keeping for years. Ross eventually left, leaving his brother feeling rejected. But on Monday, he had a change of heart and met with Lewis again in a cafe.
Lewis then admitted he knew about some of the family's dark history after researching online, so could Moira's secret be about to be let out of the bag?

There's a new reason for Scots to visit Naples
The face of Diego Maradona, who secured two other historic championship wins with Napoli, gazes down from murals and giant flags strung over the shaded alleys. But there's another face and name around the city, too. Scotland's Scott McTominay, who joined Napoli last summer, has already become an icon for Neapolitans. His goal that helped the team to its fourth championship has raised him to the saint-like status Maradona enjoys. READ MORE: US enters war with Iran after Donald Trump orders bombing of key nuclear sites McTominay is everywhere in the city now – memorialised in murals, celebrated on T-shirts and modelled into the famous figurines of its Christmas nativity scenes. If you're a fan of the footballer, there's no better place to honour him than in Naples this summer. Sitting at the packed plastic outdoor tables of a trattoria in Naples's historic Quartieri Spagnoli, scooters roaring past beside me, I can see a freshly spray-painted effigy of a noble-looking McTominay on the opposite wall, a seductive Sophia Loren beside him. The grid-plan alleys of the neighbourhood are an open-air gallery of murals, mainly featuring Maradona. Wander the shaded passages and you'll see him in various guises – Christ-like with a crown of thorns, graced with the wings of an angel, and sanctified with a halo. Similar tributes are now being paid to McTominay. Already, a black and white icon of the Scot's face has been inserted in the niche of a deconsecrated votive shrine along Via San Nicola a Nilo. And in an even more blatant statement, a mural on a wall near the San Pietro a Majella music conservatory shows the footballer leaping backwards to kick the ball, substituting the figure of God in the famous Michelangelo painting the Creation of Adam. On the walls of the decadent, crumbling palazzos that line the centro storico neighbourhood you'll see the graffitied phrase 'McFratm' – McTominay's dialectical nickname that roughly translates as 'McBro'. Souvenir stalls also sell flags and scarves with his name, but the most characteristic Neapolitan ode to the player is found on Via San Gregorio Armeno. This narrow alley in the heart of the historic centre is renowned for its workshops producing figurines traditionally used in presepi, or nativity scenes. The quirk here, though, is that Neapolitan nativity scenes are not just populated by Mary, Joseph and other biblical figures. Celebrities, politicians, popes and royalty have long been witnesses to Jesus's birth in Naples. New famous people who are modelled into figurines each year represent a line-up of those the world's been talking about most. Naturally, McTominay has now joined the ranks. Miniature scullptures of sculptures of him, with combed blond hair and a football in his hand, make for the perfect football fan souvenir If you are visiting Naples, when it comes to accommodation, you stay in style like McTominay and his family do at the five-star Romeo Hotel Napoli. Housed inside a Kenzo Tange-designed glass and steel building, the hotel is all sleek ebony panelling, volcanic stone from Mount Vesuvius and textured glass. Despite opening nearly 15 years ago, it still feels very on trend. It is packed with owner and Neapolitan businessman Alfredo Romeo's artworks – from an Andy Warhol of the nearby volcano to Mark Kostabi paintings and Zaha Hadid fireplaces and an eclectic chair collection. The Krug Champagne-branded roof terrace with an infinity pool overlooks the sweeping bay with shadowy Mount Vesuvius behind. Some rooms have panoramic harbour and volcano views, while wellness rooms are fitted with saunas, Turkish baths and jacuzzis. Suites feature opulent marble fireplaces and the Zen Garden suite has a Japanese-inspired outdoor area with an open-air jacuzzi. In the basement, there is a vast, futuristic spa where McTominay might have recovered from his game in the Himalayan salt-walled sauna or beneath the snow cascade in the frigidarium.
