Emmerdale fans 'work out' devastating new twist for Vinny

Emmerdale fans think they have worked out a devastating new twist for Vinny Dingle.

The 24-year-old is grieving the loss of his wife, Liv Dingle, who was killed during the epic storm that swept into the village during episodes to commemorate Emmerdale's 50th anniversary.

Vinny and Liv fell victim to the storm and were crushed against a wall by a falling caravan. Although Vinny was able to pick himself up from the wreckage, Liv remained heavily wounded, stating she couldn't feel her legs.

The caravan had crushed Liv to the extent it was the only thing keeping her alive and, if removed, would cause too much damage to her vital organs. After some emotional goodbyes, Liv died in Vinny's arms.

In the weeks since, Vinny has been inconsolable, as you'd expect. His mum Mandy has become increasingly worried and has been trying her best to cheer him up.

This week she asked Jimmy King if he could help, so Jimmy asked Vinny if he'd like to play poker at the scrapyard. Later, the game moved to the Woolpack where Mack and others joined in.

Charity made Jimmy promise the stakes would be no higher than £5, but soon Jimmy was waving ten pound notes around. And viewers at home made a sad prediction for Vinny.

Taking to Twitter, Craig said: "Is Vinny going to become a gambling addict?", while Dion said: "I'm sure Mandy will be thrilled he's gambling".

Mike said: "Vinny is going to end up being a gambling addict like his dad". Jamie said: "Gambling, what a great idea considering Vinny has a family history of addiction".

Emmerdale continues tomorrow (Thursday) at 7pm on ITV and the ITV Hub
