Will Lydia Forgive Samson?
Karen Blick has revealed the sole way to mend ties between Samson and her character, Lydia. Fans already know that Samson is in deep trouble after letting the police believe Matty Barton stabbed him on purpose. But the truth is, Samson’s friend Josh pushed him into Matty, who had a knife. His lies have landed poor Matty in prison.
Next week, Lydia becomes suspicious that Samson might not be telling the truth. The soap star reveals that Lydia is deeply disappointed when she eventually learns the truth. Her alter-ego starts to have doubts after Samson is released from the police station.
Moreover, a conversation with Moira in the village strengthens her concerns. Moira urges Lydia to get Samson to admit the truth. This leads to a confrontation where Lydia questions whether what Matty said is true and expresses her support while highlighting the seriousness of the situation.
Lydia is aware that Matty has been beaten up in prison or that he might have staged it to escape his predicament. However, she is concerned and wants to protect Samson while ensuring he does the right thing, though she approaches it differently than Sam Dingle. While Lydia hopes Samson will come clean, Sam is focused on helping him avoid justice.
‘Lydia Will Forgive Samson As Long As He Does One Thing’
Despite their occasional conflicts, actor James Hooton explains that Sam and Lydia always reconcile. The star stated, “Essentially Lydia is the moral compass of the Dingles. The Dingles have the Dingle code, but Lydia has the correct way to go about things.”
Sam initially supports his son Samson until he discovers that Samson lied about the incident. At that point, he decides to prioritise his family over his morals. Now, he is planning to help him escape. The actress asserted, “Despite Lydia’s disappointment in Samson, it seems as though she may be able to forgive him, as long as he does one thing.”
Her unconditional love as a parent allows her to accept that everyone makes mistakes. As long as Samson pays the price for his actions and changes his behaviour, Lydia is willing to forgive him.
