Emmerdale star teases the identity of Chloe's villain dad

With the shock revelation that Kerry (Laura Norton) was Chloe (Jessie Elland)’s mum shortly before Kerry’s exit from Emmerdale last year, questions were inevitably asked about who Chloe’s father might be.

We know that when Kerry was working as a cleaner at a grand house, she seemed to know a lot about the house’s gangster owner – who was also Chloe’s father.

So we know he’s a bit of a villain, but there’s been speculation about his identity, and whether he could be someone we might have already met. Like Caleb (William Ash), perhaps?

If Jessie Elland knows her character’s dad’s identity, she’s playing her cards close to her chest.

‘I’m just as excited as everyone else to see what happens with that one, so we’ll just have to wait and see collectively,’ she told us, while admitting that having Chloe’s dad back in her life is a storyline she’s keen to see happen.

‘I don’t know if we will but I think that would be a really interesting avenue to explore,’ she said. ‘That’s the first thing everyone asks me “Who is your dad? When are we going to meet your dad?”’

Chloe had barely got her head around the fact that Kerry was her birth mother when Kerry’s heartbreak over Al Chapman (Michael Wildman) – and Laura Norton’s maternity leave – drove her away from the village. As Kerry is set to return soon, Chloe is bound to have a lot of questions – and the subject of her father is going to be at the top of the list.

Meanwhile Chloe has been left on her own to deal with her pregnancy after sister Amy (Natalie Ann Jamieson) also rejected her for a time.

Chloe has had to be independent and resilient, but Jessie told us what she really longs for is a family.

‘I think she’s been searching for that the whole time, found it with Kerry and then that was taken away from her,’ she said. ‘So I think with this baby she’s seen it as an opportunity to create that for herself. So I think she will be a good mum. I think fundamentally all Chloe’s wanted is to belong somewhere and feel wanted.’
