Emmerdale has set up Vinny Dingle’s exit storyline after the character made a big decision about his future in tonight’s episode. <\/p>\n

In recent weeks, Vinny was at the centre of a devastating storyline<\/a> after confessing to his role in the fatal crash that killed Jimmy King and Dawn Fletcher. Distracted by a video call while driving, he inadvertently triggered the chain of events that led to the tragedy.<\/p>\n

After the truth emerged, Vinny was arrested and charged with causing death by dangerous driving. Released on bail ahead of his court hearing, he now faces the prospect of a prison term.<\/p>\n

In tonight’s episode, Vinny opened up to Aaron, telling him he had entered a guilty plea and that he wanted to sign over his share of the scrapyard. <\/p>\n

Vinny confirmed that once he has served his sentence, he would not be returning to the village out of respect for Jimmy and Dawn’s families.<\/a><\/p>\n

“When I get out, I won’t come back. Don’t tell mum that yet ’cause I can’t face her reaction,” he said. <\/p>\n

When Aaron said he might feel differently once he was out of prison, Vinny said: “I can’t live here, can I? You know, seeing Jimmy’s kids growing up without a dad. Or Dawn’s without a mum. I won’t come back out of respect for them.”<\/p>\n

In an emotional conversation, a tearful Vinny told Aaron he wanted him to have Chip the dog: “Will you please take Chip? She’s such a gorgeous dog, and I can’t bear the thought of her being rehomed.”<\/p>\n

Aaron agreed, but he told Vinny he couldn’t afford to buy him out of the scrapyard at the moment, but would deal with it when Vinny was out. <\/p>\n

In May, it was reported that Bradley Johnson, who plays Vinny, would leave the ITV soap<\/a> as part of its cast shake-up, with his exit tipped in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n

The actor joined the soap in 2019 as Mandy Dingle’s adopted son, a storyline that coincided with the big return of Mandy star Lisa Riley. <\/p>\n

It was later revealed that Vinny was the biological son of Tina Dingle, Mandy’s cousin, and Paul Ashdale.<\/p>\n

Emmerdale airs on weeknights at 8pm on ITV1, and streams on ITVX<\/a>.<\/p>\n
