Emmerdale’s Moira Dingle Faces Her Darkest Challenge Yet
Entertainment 8 days ago
Moira Dingle, the resilient farmer played by Natalie J Robb, is about to face her most intense Emmerdale storyline yet. Still reeling from the loss of Nate Robinson and struggling to keep Butlers Farm afloat, Moira is blindsided by Celia, a cunning newcomer with hidden motives. Natalie teases, ’She doesn’t expect Celia to be so devious,’ as the character is pushed to her limits by betrayal and financial strain.
Despite the darkness, Celia’s schemes reignite Moira’s fierce determination. ’Moira’s going to get her fight back, thanks to Celia,’ says Robb, highlighting the character’s unpredictable nature. Fans love Moira for her raw honesty and protective instincts, like when she brandished a gun to defend her family. The storyline also mirrors real-world farming challenges, with Robb praising the show for addressing industry struggles.
Off-screen, Robb shares a close bond with her co-stars, especially Jeff Hordley, who plays her on-screen husband Cain. Unlike their turbulent characters, the actors are lifelong friends. Robb, now 50, embraces life with optimism, saying, ’Feel the fear and do it anyway.’ As Moira battles Celia and Kim Tate for control of the farm, viewers can expect high-stakes drama and a testament to resilience.
