In Emmerdale, Vanessa Woodfield is devastated after losing Suzy Merton in the limo crash. But while she mourns, the soap fans have started talking about something else—was Suzy hiding something before she died? Specifically, fans speculate whether there is more going on between her and Mary than they let on. Some viewers are convinced that the signs were there all along.
Emmerdale: Was Mary Holding Back More Than Just Friendship?
Suzy and Mary were close; there is no doubt about it. When Mary came out, Suzy was the only one there to help her with the dating scene. When Mary got scammed out of thousands by Faye—Suzy was the one offering a shoulder to lean on. Their bond was solid, but fans think it might have been more than just friendship, at least for Mary.
Mary clearly had feelings for Suzy but by the time she realised it, Vanessa had returned, and Suzy’s attention shifted. Still, there were moments that hinted at something deeper. When Suzy crashed at Vanessa’s, she knew they needed to talk about where things stood. But was she also thinking about Mary?
Then, there were subtle clues—remember when Mary openly admired Suzy at the Take A Vow raffle and said she “always knows how to light up a room”? Next, when we saw Suzy watching her as Mary walked away.
And of course, at the Valentine’s Day moment, Mary playfully blew Suzy a kiss. To fans, it all adds up to something that is still unsaid. Before the crash, when Suzy sat in the limo, something was off about her. While the others were excited about their night ahead—she seemed distant. However, Vanessa noticed.
Now, we can’t help but speculate if she was just lost in thought or if there was something she wanted to say. Some fans believe that—had Suzy survived, she might have eventually confessed her feelings to Mary. For now, Vanessa is still processing her heartbreak. Only the upcoming Emmerdale spoilers can reveal how Vanessa and Mary’s lives shape up to be. Until then, stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily for more soap updates.
