Emmerdale stalwart Danny Miller made his final appearance as Aaron Dingle on the ITV soap last night (Monday, December 6).
However, some fans were left questioning whether it was actually his real exit at all or if he’s just taking a break to go into the I’m A Celebrity castle.
In recent weeks, Aaron has been left devastated by the shock murder of his boyfriend, Ben Tucker outside Hawksford Outdoor Pursuits.
Ben became the latest victim of secret serial killer, Meena Jutla, after discovering incriminating video footage of murderer Meena trying drown her love-rival, Victoria Sugden!
However, in an unexpected turn of events, Aaron’s troubled younger sister, Liv Flaherty is the prime suspect in Ben’s murder.
Horrified at the thought that his own sister killed the love of his life, Aaron made a decision to leave the village on Monday’s episode of Emmerdale…

Aaron has pretty much stood by Liv, even though she’s been a whole lot of trouble.
This year she started boozing and went on a destructive spiral after blaming herself for the death of boyfriend Vinny Dingle’s dad, Paul in an explosion.
On the night of Ben’s death, Liv got into a drunken scuffle with him and was left with a bleeding neck injury.
So after Lydia Dingle told the police that she bumped into a drunk and aggressive Liv outside the scene of the crime, it didn’t take the police long to make an arrest…
On tonight’s episode of the ITV soap, Liv appeared at Hotten Magistrates Court where she was refused bail.

As Liv pleaded with her big brother to reconsider, a tearful Aaron walked away…
