Emmerdale fans slam Gabby's 'low blow' in front of children

Emmerdale viewers were outraged as Gabby made a series of comments in front of Dawn's children.

The pair have been butting heads for a while after Dawn was offered a job that Gabby desperately wanted. Though she later stepped away from the role making the position available for Gabby to pick up, things took a turn shortly after.

Gabby tried to enjoy her new position with a bottle of champagne but quickly found herself drinking past her limits. She eventually made a drunk move on Nicky but much to her surprise, he backed away, leaving her red-faced.

Dawn soon found out about the incident and threw a sly dig, calling her a drunken mess who was unable to take care of her children. Gabby retaliated with much harsher comments as she suggested Dawn was a drug addict and a "prostitute" who had no right to discuss her attempts to kiss Nicky.

The insults were made in front of the children, Lucas and Clemmie, who questioned what a prostitute was, but the comments left a lasting impact on viewers who no longer want to tolerate "gobby Gabby."

One viewer said: "#Gabby’s got a tongue like a razor blade! Ouch!" Another added: "Gabby thinks she’s really something doesn’t she.. what a horrible woman. Dawn was right if you can’t look after your kid you shouldn’t have had the child if you want a high-profile job. Calling Dawn a prostitute in front of her kids is below the belt!"

A third said: "Low Blow Gabby! Even if this is dismal Dawn we're talking about here! And even worse the kids have overheard?!" A final added: "That was a bit below the belt gabby.... you're not exactly Miss pure white yourself."

Dawn was horrified by Lucas’ questioning and rushed out on the verge of tears. Gabby tried to apologise for her comments but she was soon left by herself. Dawn eventually had to sit down with her youngsters and explain her past.
