Fans of Emmerdale are convinced that there was something going on between Mary Goskirk and Suzy Merton before the party planner’s tragic death – and have now seized upon a vital piece of ‘evidence’ that they were having an affair.

Last night (Monday, February 24), the village held a vigil for the three lives lost. And, as Vanessa mourned girlfriend Suzy, Mary took the opportunity to pay her condolences… and take a little something for herself.

Mary raises suspicions as she pockets picture of Suzy

Telling Vanessa that she and Suzy had been friends, she then sneakily took a picture of Suzy from the refrigerator, pocketing it for herself. Clearly, Mary is doing some secret mourning of her own, but what’s the full story?

The pair did have unfinished business after all – with the pair beginning a tentative romance before Vanessa returned to the village and resumed her relationship with Suzy.

A number of fans have theorised that Mary and Suzy may have been having an affair prior to the limousine crash, and have taken Mary’s photo theft as confirmation.

Writing on social media, fans shared their theories about these scenes – with a number suggesting that Mary and Suzy could have been seeing each other behind Vanessa’s back.

“Why do I get the feeling Suzy and Mary had a secret affair,” wrote one fan on X.

“Mary you little liar .. we know you were more than ‘friends’,” another accused.

“Yo Mary and Suzy have defiently had an affair or some kind of a moment.. “She was my friend” More than that love,” a third said.

“Oh hello Mary…was suzy more than a friend?” asked a fourth.
