Emmerdale viewers have been quick to point out a problem as Noah Dingle officially made pregnant Amelia Spencer his girlfriend. After he cruelly ridiculed her earlier this year in a fit of jealousy over his ex Chloe, Noah has got closer to Amelia in recent months.
She was the only person to visit him in prison after he was given a custodial sentence for stalking Chloe, much to the villagers' horror. Noah has since become the 15-year-old's confidant after he discovered she was pregnant. Amelia lied to him about who the father was but in scenes aired on the ITV soap last week, the truth was revealed.
As Noah paid Samson Dingle a visit before his prom, the pair got involved in a row as Samson tried to dumb down Noah's feelings for Amelia and made cheap shots at his friend who he too once shared feelings for. Going a step further, Samson revealed he had already been intimate with Amelia.
Putting two and two together, Noah revealed that Amelia was pregnant - and the baby must be his. Samson didn't react to the news well and there has since been a few face-offs between the Dingle and Spencer clan. But during Monday night's trip to the Dales (August 29) viewers saw Amelia share her plans to run away from the village.
Noah told her she couldn't go to London to her brother Sean but she suggested he go too and that she'll tell him they were together. Amelia then got upset as she told Noah he 'hadn't asked' her to be an official couple leading the pair to share a sweet moment as they become boyfriend and girlfriend despite Amelia's family disapproval.
And while the fictional lovebirds have been wrapped up in their romance, Emmerdale viewers have pointed out a problem. @LeroyStHillwell tweeted: "Unemployed with babby, Amelia and Noah, kids, moving to the soul sucking London where a sandwich costs £5. What could go wrong? #Emmerdale."
But that's not the only issue as fans have pointed out an issue with their ages. @griannedoherty3 tweeted: "Firstly literally 5 minutes ago he admitted he was totally just using her to get back at Chloe. Absolutely slanging Amelia off in the cafe in front of everyone Secondly he's 18, she's 15. Ain't he kinda breaking the law yet again? 5 minutes outta Prison? #Emmerdale."
@itzzzo_ shared: "So I take it we are meant to ignore the fact that 18 year old Noah has asked 15 year old Amelia to be his girlfriend? #Emmerdale." @Cirah_TV asked: "Isn't Amelia like 15? So doesn't that make her and Noah together incredibly inappropriate? #Emmerdale."
Others, however, are happy to see the pair together. @stubbs4612 said: "They are good together, they will only go to London if they are leaving Emmerdale for good, but as always they will probably get stopped from leaving." @jo1987g commented: "I [love] these two together they look so suited."
