Emmerdale star Charley Webb responds to Cain’s emotional story – could Debbie return?

Former Emmerdale star Charley Webb has responded to Cain Dingle’s emotional storyline, though it remains to be seen if it’s enough to bring her back to the ITV soap. After a five-year absence, could the actor make a comeback as Debbie?

Recent developments on the soap have seen Cain learn that he has prostate cancer, though he has been conflicted over whether to disclose this information with any of his close friends or family.

Eventually, Cain softened this stance and confided in granddaughter Sarah Sugden. She emotionally urged him to reach out to as many people as possible as he prepared to fight for his life.

The devastating scene, which took place by the grave of Cain’s father Zak, was later shared on the soap’s official Instagram page, to which Webb wrote in the comment section: “My 2 babies .”

The actor, who debuted on the soap in 2002, was met with several comments in the replies, with multiple fans encouraging her to reprise her role as Debbie in both Cain and Sarah’s hour of need.

“You need to come back for them now, they need you!” wrote one fan, with another commenting: “They need you back!! Come back and also blow up Dawn and Joe’s relationship  now that he’s back!”

Webb didn’t reply to any of the suggestions in the thread, which seems indicative of her current stance regarding a potential return. After last appearing on the soap in 2021, it seems that there are no imminent plans for a comeback.

Just last month, the actor landed her latest role, with the star set to appear on the stage in The Ladies Football Club. The production, written by Stefano Massini, follows the rise of a women’s football team during the First World War.

“The cast and creatives coming together for The Ladies Football Club bring extraordinary imagination, rigour, and heart to a story that demands to be seen and heard now,” said Webb in a statement.

“It honours the courage and collective spirit at the root of the history of women’s football, while pushing boldly into the present. The Ladies Football Club does not simply celebrate an important moment in history – it reclaims it.”
