Manpreet's blackmailer revealed in special Emmerdale episode

In a special episode of Emmerdale, viewers finally discover who has been blackmailing Manpreet Sharma. This episode reveals the motives behind the blackmail, which began after Manpreet started posting suggestive images online. Manpreet, played by Rebecca Sarker, had hoped to boost her self-esteem by sharing these photos on adult subscription sites. However, this led to a dangerous situation where someone began demanding money from her. Sarker described Manpreet's journey, noting that while the initial attention felt good, it quickly became a toxic experience. Tonight's one-hour episode answers many questions. This extended runtime is due to a scheduling change for the World Cup qualifier match between England and Albania, which will air later this week. Fans eager to find out who the blackmailer is can watch the episode on ITV or on ITVX. Rebecca Sarker highlighted how Manpreet felt drawn to the online platform. She mentioned that the thrill of gaining likes and attention was addictive, especially since Manpreet was dealing with loneliness and past relationship issues. Despite her initial hesitation, Sarker noted that she can relate to the confidence boost that social media can provide.
