Emmerdale triple exit as Billy and Dawn get engaged and flee village with Lucas?

Dawn Taylor (Olivia Bromley) and Billy Fletcher (Jay Kontzle) certainly have strong feelings for one another. The Emmerdale characters seem determined to make their relationship work, but they keep being hit with setbacks caused by conniving characters. Despite the complications, Billy is set to get on one knee and propose to Dawn in upcoming scenes – does this mean the couple will leave the ITV soap together?

Evil Meena Jutla (Paige Sandhu) recently broke the news to Billy she’s pregnant with his child in a desperate bid to keep him close to her. 

Billy – who has no idea she’s actually lying about the pregnancy – decided to be honest to Dawn about it, and to his surprise, she was still determined to make their relationship work.

Meena’s meddling continues this week when she manages to convince Dawn’s drug-addict ex Alex (Liam Boyle) to visit her. 

Alex is the father of Dawn’s son Lucas (Dexter Ansell) and looks due to go to great lengths to make her lose custody of the youngster.

The 31-year-old actor said the proposal was purely “spontaneous” and was not planned for New Year’s Eve.

He said: “It couldn’t have come at a better time and it’s a lovely moment. 

“It’s a New Year, a new start and a new beginning to Billy and Dawn and it was just done on a whim. 

“But he thought it could be a fresh start for the two of them. It was quite emotional, but it was nice.”
