Nate Robinson (Jurell Carter) receives quite the shock in Emmerdale, as he discovers that girlfriend Tracy Metcalfe (Amy Walsh) is pregnant, but will such a discovery bring mum Cara (Carryl Thomas) back to the village?
There’s a huge week in store for the young lovers as, following an incident in which Tracy injures her wrist, Nate accompanies her to the hospital.
It’s here where they learn life-changing news, as a urine sample taken ahead of the scan reveals that Tracy is pregnant.
Speaking about the development, actress Amy Walsh — who portrays Tracy — told Metro.co.uk: ‘[It’s a] Total shock.
‘She thinks she’s been careful, she’s on the pill so it does come as a massive surprise and in general it’s quite shocking news to hear, they’ve not been together that long, it was not obviously planned, so they’re both a bit in shock for the first few minutes, hours, days.’
Jurrel — who plays Nate — reveals that his character is similarly taken aback by the news, telling us: ‘I think this comes as a massive shock but I think Nate’s terrified and of course with his own family relations it makes him in a more terrified state.’
Yes, Nate’s family relations are somewhat complicated given all that’s transpired between he and biological dad Cain (Jeff Hordley) since arriving in the village, and therefore one can’t help but wonder if he’ll turn to mum Cara for support?
Jurrel is certainly keen for actress Carryl Thomas to return, as he told us: ‘I’ve made a nice friendship with her and it’s beautiful being with her on set.
‘I’d love to see her back on screen. Their relationship is complex and loving.’
Similarly, Amy thinks it would be great to see how Cara would react to the baby news.
She said: ‘It would be great to see her reaction to the baby as when she left they were just getting together and she was quite bitter and being quite aggy with Tracy for taking Nate away from her.
‘They made friends in the end but to see her relationship to tracy as well as being a grandparent and for Tracy to have that mother figure. Even when she was with David she didn’t have that, she’s had no one apart Val back in the day.’
In spite of her somewhat short stint, Cara was hugely popular with fans of the soap, and became instantly iconic, so a return would no doubt make many viewers happy.
