Emmerdale spoilers tease new struggle for Nate Robinson as he hits the booze

Emmerdale has teased new struggles ahead for Cain Dingle's son Nate Robinson, as he gets upset over recent goings on.

The character has been off screen for a while, ever since his ex Tracy Metcalfe moved away in January.

She got a new job offer in Nottingham that she could not turn down, shortly after her split with Nate when he cheated on her.

Actress Amy Walsh remains on maternity leave, after welcoming her first child with EastEnders star Toby-Alexander Smith in December, with it not confirmed if or when she will be back on the soap.

Tracy departed with Nate's blessing, and took their baby daughter Frankie with her - while she promised Nate he could visit whenever he wanted.

They seemed adamant to make things work to keep both of them in Frankie's life, but new spoilers suggest this not to be the entire case.

Nate is left down in the dumps in upcoming scenes as he struggles with being without his little girl, two months on from her moving away.

It's not clear where Nate has been all this time, as he hasn't been on screen since then, but it doesn't appear he was away from the village.

Spoilers reveal that he soon decides to get drunk, as he's desperate to stop the pain he's feeling over not seeing Frankie.

It all kicks off when Nate is left gutted as he watches old videos of his child, leaving him emotional.

He realises he is missing so much time with her and not seeing her milestone moments, leaving him devastated.

As the week goes on Nate remains upset, and tries to rope Ryan Stocks into a drinking session at the pub.

While it's not known if Ryan will be a shoulder to lean on for the character, it's revealed that Nate is trying to distract himself from missing Frankie by getting drunk.

Viewers will have to tune in next week to see how this fairs out, but could there be more struggles ahead for the dad?
