Emmerdale has confirmed a surprising family twist involving Celia Daniels and Ray Walters, revealing that the two characters are related. And they’re not just related – they’re about as close as family can be: they’re mum and son!
The revelation adds a new layer to both storylines and raises questions about how their connection will affect life in the village moving forward.

Emmerdale: Farmer Celia runs a drug operation
We discovered tonight (Thursday October 2) that April’s drug dealing is actually for Celia, not Ray. Celia is Ray’s boss!
April had accidentally dropped some of the pills she was meant to sell at home. Mistaking them for sweeties her brother, Leo, had eaten them. After suffering a seizure he was rushed to hospital and was fighting for his life.
Guilty April was ready to confess all. But when Ray found out he called Celia who turned up at the hospital. She cornered April and encouraged her not to cross the dangerous people who had her dealing drugs. And when that didn’t work, she turned round and violently slapped April.
Celia called her an “ungrateful little wretch”. She then added: “You lost Ray thousands of pounds, and this is how you repay him?”
Celia then revealed that she is Ray’s boss. She threatened April and her family and insisted April lie to the police. April did as she was told.
Later, another bombshell was dropped when Ray called Celia ‘Mum’. Celia reduced him to a quivering wreck as she called him “a useless, pathetic, weak little man” for allowing April to humiliate him.
