A number of ‘Emmerdale’ stars have rushed to congratulate the actress, including Charley Webb, who plays her on-screen daughter Debbie Dingle.
However, while Charity has been jailed for two years for perverting the courts of justice, Emma has hinted that she won’t serve her full sentence.
“I am leaving probably for about a year because I'm leaving to have a baby which is really exciting,” Emma continues. “I will miss ‘Emmerdale’ so much but it is a new little journey in my life that I'm taking on now.
“I can't wait to come back - hopefully within a year.”
