Emmerdale fans are speculating about who Billy Fletcher might start a new romance with, following his wife Dawn Taylor’s infidelity.
Billy, portrayed by Jay Kontzle, first appeared in the iconic Dales in December 2018 and has since become a beloved character among the soap’s dedicated fanbase. The doting father has been involved in numerous major plotlines.
From his disastrous wedding to Dawn Taylor (played by Olivia Bromley) to their child Evan’s shocking leukaemia diagnosis, his time on the soap has not been short of drama. Currently, he is unaware that Dawn recently cheated on him with Joe Tate (Ned Porteous), who made a dramatic return to the soap over Christmas and has been causing chaos ever since.
After Dawn drugged Kim Tate (Claire King) in a failed attempt to make her confess to her father Will’s (Dean Andrews) death, things took a turn for the worse when Kim began having seizures and lost consciousness. Joe quickly took control of the situation, calling an ambulance and promising Dawn he wouldn’t reveal her actions.

Fortunately, Kim recovered, but Dawn later confessed her actions to Billy, who was horrified and stormed out. Joe then comforted Dawn, leading to an unexpected kiss between them. Dawn immediately regretted it and apologised, but Joe advised her to keep it from Billy, reports Leeds Live.
In a twist-packed episode, Dawn desperately tries to keep her actions under wraps, as she and Joe clandestinely meet and decide to feign ignorance about any spark between them. Yet, with whispers of an impending affair between Joe and Dawn growing amongst fans, some are placing bets on Billy finding an unexpected new love interest.

Speculation is rife among fans who see him potentially linking up with Kim. Voicing theories on Emmerdale’s fan community on Facebook, a viewer speculated: “Now hear me out. Billy – new king of Home Farm, Kim’s new lover? “.
Another enthusiast joined in: “Yes! ! I’m here for this! Kim would be a much better upgrade from Dawn.” And yet another agreed: “I’ve thought this for a while! She’ll eat him alive.” Further adding to the frenzy, one more chimed in: “Maybe Billy would appreciate the older woman.” With someone else penning: “I like the sound of that one.”
