    Could of left the door open. I love Liv as a character :'(

    I just hope they do it well. This is going to be a shocking death though, For the 50th I imagined they would just kill off characters who have only been in it for three years or less, like they did with Meena. She was also great asexual representation.

    Glad this was leaked because if I saw this live without knowing she was going to die, I'd probably hate the 50th :/ .

    I am gutted by this news. Isobel is a fantastic actress and although her stories have sometimes been repetitive I’ve enjoyed her presence

    Wish this could have been kept a secret though

    As Billy has said, Liv (character) would have been so much better without rinse and repeat with her storylines.
    A shame she is leaving….. hope she has quit of her own accord and not been pushed out.

    Why has this leaked though? Surely it'd have been better as a surprise.

    I’m surprised they’re killing her off. Personally I’ve never thought much of her as an actress. Rather monotone in her delivery.

    I thought she gets attacked by her mum's "boyfriend"

    Cry Me a River will be in his element.

    Not an actualy Dingle though. Shame.

    I’m genuinely shocked at this news!

    Isobel is a brilliant singer though so I hope she goes onto do something in musical theatre after this she’d be excellent. Very bold move to genuinely kill off the character though (if they are).

    Having said that despite her being young unless Vinny was also leaving I don’t see how they’d exit the character without splitting them up so it feels like her death is the only way they’d no longer be a couple. In one way I am glad they didn’t go down the Vinny and Gabby route.

    As others have said it wouldn't be Emmerdale's 50th without a big dose of misery for Aaron! All this on top of Faith dying (presumably around the same time) as well.

    They may regret it later on down the line when Danny Miller decides to return full time.

    I have just heard, I am shocked by this news. I thought Isobel would stick with Emmerdale for many years to come. Shame Liv is being killed off, as she could return at some point in the future if Danny Miller (Aaron) returns full time.

    I wish Isobel all the best for the future in her music career.

    If this is true then I’m over the moon. Nothing against Isobel of course, but I can’t stand Liv! And on my birthday week too… 😜

    While I don't like Liv, I feel that a development like this would have been more significant as a sudden 50th anniversary shock rather than leaked 2 weeks early. :disappointed:

    Good actress but character has become really annoying and they have used her all they can. More misery for Aaron, get the tearsticks out!!

    Poor Vinny

    He’ll be free to get with Gabby now

    At least Vinny won’t be saddled with her misery long term. He was a fun character when he first joined. Liv definitely has dragged him down.

    Can't believe they're killing her off. Seems such a waste of a great character.

    I wasn’t expecting this! She’s a good actress. Danny Miller will be amazing as usual.
