Emmerdale newcomer Suzy looks like having a link to a soap favourite.
Emmerdale viewers have seen Suzy, played by Martelle Edinborough, embark on a new romance with Vanessa Woodfield - played by Michelle Hardwick. It appears the newcomer has a link to Leyla Harding.
Her recent behaviour has suggested all is not right and next week Leyla, played by Roxy Shahidi, will be seen being fazed by a chance meeting with Suzy. As our colleagues at The Mirror report, as soon as she locks eyes on Suzy it's apparent Leyla already knows her, and that she is not happy to see her.

Vanessa is curious how the pair know each other. Suzy claims the pair previously met through work.
Leyla is clearly shaken by the whole encounter, and she's later reassured by Suzy that she will keep all her secrets for her. But what could they be?
Acting star Martelle, who has enjoyed small roles in Coronation Street, has previously spoken of what we can expect from Suzy's time in Emmerdale. Martelle said: “She’s confident and gregarious and fun to be around. She doesn’t take any nonsense at the same time and she likes to get what she wants. She’s a really fun character to play so I’m looking forward to all the different stuff that’s coming up for her.”
The newcomer lives in Leeds and was delighted to bag the role in Emmerdale. Martelle explained: “I literally dropped to my knees and let out a few expletives, as you do. I was absolutely over the moon and overjoyed."
We'll bring you more on the link between Suzy and Leyla when we have further details. In the meantime, you can visit our Emmerdale homepage to find the latest gossip about the soap.
