Emmerdale fans have been laying into Leyla Cavanagh after the wedding planner’s poor security measures allowed Matty Barton to swipe a holdall of drugs with ease.
Leyla, played by Roxy Shahidi in the ITV soap, has agreed to hide cocaine on the premises of Take A Vow for dealer Callum.
He turned up with enough Class A’s to ‘buy a small island’ and warned Leyla to not go losing it.

So it was obvious from that moment on that something terrible was going to happen. You know, like someone breaking in and stealing the stash.
Why is Leyla hiding drugs in Emmerdale?
But no one expected Leyla to make it quite so easy.
After declaring, quite adamantly to Suzy, ‘Well, I’m not stupid,’ Leyla dropped her key to her business in a plant pot outside.
In broad daylight and in front of Matty’s eyes.
Matty – who is on a mission to get revenge on Suzy for inadvertently supplying the drugs that killed his sister Holly in 2016 – let himself into Take A Vow.
After about two seconds of frantic searching, he found the key to the cupboard where Leyla had hidden the drugs.
He then swiped the bag and did a runner.
Viewers took to Twitter to marvel over Leyla’s lack of foresight.
