Emmerdale fans couldn't help but notice something very different about Amelia Spencer as she takes drastic action to change her body. Fans of the ITV soap have been concerned for the teen as she aspires to look like the girls she is seeing online.
Earlier this week viewers were left gutted for Samson Dingle when he shared his true feelings for Amelia as he tried to make her feel better about herself while she continued to obsess over gym selfies being posted on social media. But they were also left fearing the fellow teen had made a 'huge mistake'. as during their chat, Samson told Amelia that the people she sees online only get their gym bodies from taking certain supplements.
His unintentional comment then lead to Amelia going straight on her phone to order some for herself and when the mystery supplement arrived at Home Farm, Gabby Thomas dropped off her parcel and lied about its contents to her and friend Cathy Hope. Then in recent days, as she pushes her friends away, she has been swigging from a bottle of the diet syrup.
During Friday night's episode, Emmerdale fans saw Amelia continuing to take dangerous measures and saw her get a warning from Cathy. "If you're on about what I said about that muck you're taking, I'm glad I said it. You need to get rid," she told her. "I've been reading up some more. I can't believe you spent so much on something that's so dangerous."
Amelia replied: "Yeah, alright. I've thrown them out." Cathy said: "I hope that's the truth. I've read what it can do to you and I wouldn't want that happening." But the shock side effects began to show when Amelia's vision began to blur.
However, those watching have noticed something else about the schoolgirl. @ASuperGav tweeted: "Why is Amelia turning orange. Been nicking the rabbit’s carrots I suspect #Emmerdale." @Matt528chap wrote: "Why does Amelia look like she's been tangoed?! #Emmerdale."
@mardimyley33 said: "Did Amelia drink a bottle of orange bleach or a slimming drink? #Emmerdale." @PJDavies1962 noted: "Amelia's turning orange #emmerdale."
