Emmerdale youngster April Windsor (Amelia Flanagan) has won the hearts of fans since she made her soap debut in 2014 as the daughter of Marlon Dingle (Mark Charnock) and Donna Windsor (Verity Rushworth).
Her most recent major storyline saw her trying to cope with Marlon's life-threatening stroke which left him paralysed and unable to speak. Now, she's developed a crush on Arthur Thomas (Alfie Clarke), who, like April hasn't had the easiest start in life.
When she first arrived in the village, Marlon and April formed a close bond when they found out that Donna had cancer. Sadly, April lost her mum after she took her own life in 2014.
April currently lives with her half-brother Leo Goskirk (Harvey Rogerson), Marlon and his wife, Rhona Goskirk (Zoe Henry) at Smithy Cottage.
As April goes through the highs and lows of adolescence, fans have been wondering how old is April in Emmerdale?
