EMMERDALE fans have all had the same reaction as Chas Dingle’s secret affair has finally been exposed.
The Woolpack bar manager – who is played by actress Lucy Pargeter in the ITV soap – has managed to keep her affair with murdered Al Chapman a secret for months.
However in tonight’s episode her luck finally ran out when Belle discovered proof that she hadn’t ended the affair – and was with Al when her mum Faith died.
She confronted Chas and warned her that she knew – and hinted that she was about to tell Paddy.
But when it came down to it, Belle couldn’t tell him and so went home.
Moira turned up at the Dingles’ farm house to deliver some steaks but she ended up finding Belle sat sobbing in the living room.
Concerned, she ran over to her sister in law and asked if she was OK.
Shaking Belle told her: “I’m not, I’m really not, I’m sorry Moira.
“Everything’s just such a mess. I could’ve done something about it and I should’ve done something about it.”
Panicking Moira tried to get her to open up, telling her: “I don’t like seeing you like this, so just take your time and start from the beginning.”
Belle told her: “I found something out months ago, and I kept my mouth shut and I wish to God I hadn’t because if I spoke up everything would be so different.
“You know that Al was having an affair… it was Chas. And I caught them out and I confronted her about it and she promised me it was done – she swore blind.
“And then today I’ve found out she never ended it, it was her – she never ended it.
“She was going to leave Paddy and she was going to take Eve with her.
“I guess that Cain found out and that’s why he did what he did.
“If I’d just spoken out at the time then Al wouldn’t be dead and Cain wouldn’t be in prison.”
Moira was seething at the news, but fans are just overjoyed it has finally come out.
One wrote: “I hope moira makes chas pay for wrecking her life , just cos she wanted something for herself.”
A second said: “Roll on tomorrow’s episode you deserving everything that coming too you Chas!!! #Emmerdale.”
Another added: “Moira’s face [laughing emoji] chas had better watch out!!!”
