Emmerdale Star Paula Lane Drops Bombshell: Ella’s Return Shocks Fans!

In a recent update from Emmerdale Village, Paula Lane, who plays Ella Forster, has teased her imminent return to the ITV soap. Paula joined Emmerdale last year and has been offscreen following some dramatic revelations. However, fans can expect to see her back soon. Yesterday, Paula shared a photo on her Instagram alongside Lisa Riley, who plays Mandy Dingle, with the caption “All That Glitters at Emmerdale Village #today.”

Ella Forster arrived in the village with a dark secret: she killed her friend in a fit of rage on her 11th birthday. Despite having served her time, the villagers are reluctant to accept her. Paula explained that Ella will find an ally in Mandy and rely on her for support. In a conversation with Mandy, Ella admits she has always had to run when the truth about her past comes out, often ending up living out of her car. Paula mentioned that Ella and Mandy found a spark in each other from day one, due to their shared dark pasts and poor choices in life. This connection has fostered a deep empathy and protective bond between them.

Unfortunately, it’s not just the villagers who struggle to move past Ella’s actions. Paula admits that Ella herself finds it impossible to forget what she did. Her secret weighs heavily on her, and while she tries to carry on as normal, the guilt is ever-present. Every birthday serves as a painful reminder of the tragedy, making it difficult for her to truly move on. Fans are eagerly waiting to see how Ella’s return will unfold and how her relationship with Mandy will develop amidst the village’s reluctance to accept her.
