new Emmerdale fan theory has suggested that there could be a particularly tragic end to Cain Dingle’s story this year – with the village hardman potentially set to tackle depression and even a suicide attempt.
Recent weeks have seen Cain wrestle with his fear of losing Moira, And, as she underwent surgery for her brain tumour, Cain spiralled out of control, drinking heavily in the garage.
Tormented Cain cheated on Moira with Ruby
As his mood worsened, a drunk and moody Cain lashed out – beating up Jimmy and verbally bashing Caleb. But there was worse to come. And, as Ruby slunk into the garage (nobody can quite figure out why) the pair slept together.
Last night’s episode of the soap (Thursday, November 21) saw Cain continue to struggle with what he had done, his sense of guilt getting the better of him as Moira lay recovering in hospital.
How will Cain cope in the weeks to come?
Cain to battle depression, new fan theory predicts on Emmerdale
As Cain continues to struggle with what he’s done, fans have predicted that he may be headed down a dark path. Are even darker days ahead for Cain?
“So are we going with divorce, a Xmas pregnancy or Cain going down the depression and suicide route?,” asked one fan.
“Cain needs to get his thoughts/feelings in check. Cheating aside, we can all see he has been struggling for weeks now,” another said.
“Moira undergoing brain surgery & Cain hits the self-destruct-poor-me, default button whenever the going gets tough. It’ll blow up in his face that’s for sure. It beggars belief he chose to lie down with Ruby who has her own demons,” said a third.
“Do the writers just hate the Dingles now?” asked a fourth. “How they handled Belle’s DV storyline, having Aaron be with his ex-husband’s long lost half-brother, sending Seb to live with someone else and now Cain betraying Moira with Ruby???”
Can Cain come to terms with what he’s done? Or, is a tragic future ahead for him?
