Emmerdale fans have been left scratching their heads

after a dramatic flashforward revealed Caleb Miligan (William Ash) unconscious in a hospital bed, hooked up to life-saving machines.
The shocking scene had viewers speculating about the real reason behind his hospitalisation
and, surprisingly, it’s not linked to his confrontation with his brother Cain (Jeff Hordley), as many originally thought.

Caleb’s life has been anything but peaceful in recent months. His world came crashing down after a series of explosive revelations.

First, he discovered that his daughter, Steph (Georgia Jay), was not his biological child, throwing his personal life into turmoil.

Then, his deep involvement in the cover-up of Anthony Fox’s (Nicholas Day) murder only added more strain. However, Caleb’s troubles reached a new height when he learned that his wife Ruby (Beth Cordingly) had been having an affair with his brother Cain.
Fueled by a desire for revenge, Caleb’s next move was to frame Cain for Anthony’s murder. However, his attempt to set his brother up was unsuccessful, and the truth about Cain’s infidelity eventually came to light. In a dramatic public showdown, Caleb exposed Cain’s affair, causing an uproar among their family and friends, including Moira (Natalie J. Robb) and her son Matty (Ash Palmisciano).
Amid the tension and chaos, things took a darker turn. Caleb’s confrontation with Cain escalated into a physical altercation, and Caleb viciously attacked his brother. This was just the beginning of the drama, however. Later, while Caleb was driving a limo full of villagers, a horrific car crash ensued. The limo crashed into a frozen lake, with the group inside at risk of drowning. The crash resulted in the tragic death of Suzy Merton (Martelle Edinborough), and Amy Barton (Natalie Ann Jamieson) was left fighting for her life.

Amidst all the carnage, Emmerdale viewers were given a glimpse into a grim future when a flashforward aired, showing Caleb in a coma in the hospital. However, despite the assumption that his hospitalisation was tied to his violent altercation with Cain or the crash, the real cause remains shrouded in mystery. The flashforward has sparked a whirlwind of theories among fans, who have been left speculating wildly about how Caleb ends up in this critical condition.
On fan forums and social media, one theory that has stood out is the possibility that Jai Sharma (Chris Bisson) could be the one responsible for Caleb’s downfall. Jai and Caleb have a history of tension, and fans have noted Caleb’s ruthless treatment of Jai, especially when Caleb took advantage of Jai’s financial struggles, demanding that Jai hand over every penny he had. Could Jai have snapped under the pressure and attacked Caleb in retaliation?

One fan on an Emmerdale fan page commented, “I thought Caleb’s flashforward hospital part would have been when it came out about Cain and Ruby. I was wrong, so why does Caleb end up in a coma?” The comments section buzzed with various theories, with many fans agreeing that Jai could be the one behind Caleb’s hospitalisation. “What if Jai snaps and attacks him? He took Jai to the cleaners for every penny he had, didn’t he?” one viewer proposed, while another fan added, “Ah, good idea.”
However, not all viewers are convinced this theory is the right one. Some warned that Jai, known for his ability to be ruthless when pushed, could pose a real threat to Caleb. “Jai can be an extremely nasty person. I’m not sure I fancy Caleb’s chances against him,” one fan cautioned.
While Jai remains a top suspect, there’s still the possibility that other characters may be involved in Caleb’s fate. Emmerdale is known for its unpredictable twists, and this mystery is just one more layer of intrigue that has left fans eagerly awaiting the next episode.

As Caleb’s storyline continues to unfold, the speculation surrounding his hospitalisation only grows. Will Jai’s anger finally catch up to him? Or will another shocking twist emerge that explains Caleb’s fate? One thing is certain – Emmerdale fans are on the edge of their seats, desperate to know the real reason why Caleb ends up in the hospital and whether he will survive this latest ordeal.
