Emmerdale actor Ash Palmisciano, who plays the soap's first transgender character, has spoken about the heartbreak of losing his mum.
This week, Ash's character Matty Barton is plunged into family turmoil when he discovers he has been betrayed by his mum Moira and girlfriend Amy, who lied to him that Cain shot dead former Woolpack co-owner Al Chapman when it was actually Kyle, writes The Mirror.
However, the soap family drama couldn't be further from Ash’s real life as he says he feels incredibly lucky dad Adrian and mum Michelle showered him and younger sister Sophie with love.
