Riches’s role is also autistic, like him. He added that the soap writers were quite supportive and willing to use the right words to portray the storyline accurately. The actor said that in the autism community, they don’t say that they have autism. Though he doesn’t mind, people think that it’s a part of them if they are autistic.

Furthermore, his character’s plot won’t focus on him being autistic. He added that he just shared this with Ross, and after that, there is no mention of his autism. Meanwhile, soap fans are eagerly waiting for the actor’s new role. Are you excited for Lewis Barton? Share your thoughts in the comments. Stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily for more Emmerdale Spoilers!
