SAM Dingle is beside himself as his wife Lydia left the family cottage, hinting there may be trouble ahead for their marriage.<\/p>\n

But how will the Emmerdale stalwart react when his wife drops a bombshell on him about Craig Reed? <\/p>\n

\n<\/p>\n

The fan favourite portrayed by Karen Blick was sexually assaulted by her childhood sweetheart Craig Reed (Ben Addis) who manipulated her into believing he had nothing but good intentions for her and her family. <\/p>\n

Sadly, and like many other victims of assault and rape, Lydia has been unable to expose Craig, particularly as he continually gaslights her, denying her truth and insisting she had given consent. <\/p>\n

However, while many in the ITV Dales were none the wiser, Kim Tate (Claire King) quickly realised something wasn't right with Lydia as her behaviour spiralled out of control in Home Farm. <\/p>\n

In an emotional outburst, as she struggled to fight back tears upon realising the brutality of what happened to her, Lydia opened up to the businesswoman and told her Craig had raped her. <\/p>\n

Coming up, Sam is upset Lydia has gone "to her mother\u2019s" and he doesn\u2019t understand why. <\/p>\n

This prompts him to talk to Kim who\u00a0<\/strong>subtly tests the waters with Sam, trying to determine if Lydia has revealed her secret. <\/p>\n

They\u2019re both panicked when they try to call Lydia\u2019s mum, only to find out Lydia isn\u2019t really there. <\/p>\n
