There was a distressing scenes warning for tonight's Emmerdale episode as Leyla's ongoing cocaine addiction culminated in her overdosing.
After a stressful time trying to get Callum off her back when she lost his stash, Leyla went home and took cocaine. Her husband Liam, who didn't know about her drug problem, found her on the floor when he arrived home with the empty bag on the table.
Leyla was rushed to hospital, where she remains as of the end of the episode. The whole village now knows about her overdose, including son Jacob, who is studying to be a doctor and was touring the hospital when she was brought in.
And one fan thinks there could be more to Leyla's overdose than meets the eye. @homebrew19721 tweeted: "The coke as probably been cut with something dodgy #emmerdale". Similarly, @ScullyScully73 asked if Callum had 'given Layla some dodgy sh****?? #Emmerdale"
Leyla's husband Liam was very upset about Leyla overdosing, and ended the episode by saying if she wanted to 'throw her life away' she'd have to do it alone. Along with Moira, he blamed Suzy for Leyla's overdose - and fans think it may be the end for them.
Sharon Harvey-Writer said: "Hopefully this Leyla storyline will now take a positive turn ie, instead of continuing to blame Suzy for it all, Liam could say Leyla didn’t have to take it. Seems like he has given up on her now. #emmerdale"
@Zoe4UmbrAcad wrote: "Well I was going to say how great it is that Leyla secret is out and how supportive her husband is, but it has since done a uturn and shocked he may leave her. #emmerdale"
And Doreen Morfitt said: "HOORAY! The penny has finally dropped! Liam has finally figured out his wife has had an overdose! Well done lad it only took her nearly dying for you to figure that out #Emmerdale"
Now viewers are waiting to see whether Leyla will pull through, along with her husband and son.
"Please say Leyla isn't going to die, feel sorry for Liam and jakey #Emmerdale," said @MrShortieUK. And Michelle Jones is pretty sure she knows where the storyline will be going: "They’re all gonna blame Suzie now and the truth won’t come out till Xmas #Emmerdale"
Earlier in the episode, Matty had attempted to frame Suzy by putting Callum's stash in her car. Marlon had had a tiring stag do, and Dawn and Billy had received the positive news they would be able to adopt Clemmie.
