Emmerdale has aired the death of Ethan Anderson tonight. Although it had been heavily hinted he would die after news of a collapse emerged in last week’s spoilers, it still came as a surprise.
Fans of the soap expressed their shock, with many saying it was completely unexpected.

Ethan in hit and run drama
Last week, Ethan was mowed down by a car, driven by Ruby Fox-Miligan. She wanted revenge after Ethan was driving a car over the limit and crashed. The accident put her son Nicky in a coma for weeks.
However it was less the crash itself which angered her, but more the fact Ethan had left Nicky without calling for help. He then lied and tried to keep his involvement a secret.
When the truth came out, Ruby was out for blood. She ran Ethan down, but told him she wasn’t attempting to kill him, just to scare him. Although he insisted they were even, Ruby laughed and said he’d better watch his back if Nicky died as next time she’d finish the job.
Fortunately, Nicky woke up and is going to fine.
Ethan, however, was facing up to five years behind bars for his part in the accident. And as he got ready for court tonight (Tuesday May 28) tragedy struck.
