Little Clemmie Reed (Mabel Addison) was left devastated in Emmerdale recently after Gabby Thomas (Rosie Bentham) let slip that her adoptive parents Dawn (Olivia Bromley) and Billy Fletcher (Jay Kontzle) were expecting a baby.
The episode saw Dawn and Billy wanting to give Clemmie an amazing birthday as they knew how much she was missing her mum and wanted to spoil her.
However, the celebrations ended in disaster when an already upset Clemmie overheard the news that Dawn was pregnant. Terrified that a new baby would mean that she would be pushed out of the family unit, Clemmie violently lashed out and pushed a chair into Dawn's belly.
Clemmie was horrified as Dawn collapsed to the floor, but as the couple went to the hospital to get the baby checked out, Clemmie ran away from home.
After the troubled girl took centre stage this week, you may be wanting to know who is Clemmie in Emmerdale? And who is Clemmie's mum in Emmerdale?
She made her soap debut in July 2022, but if you're wanting to refresh your mind on who the youngster is you can find out below...
Who is Clemmie in Emmerdale?
Clemmie is the daughter of Dawn's late friend, Beth Reed and Dawn's criminal ex-boyfriend Alex Moore (Liam Boyle). Clemmie is now the adopted daughter of Dawn and Billy.
After Beth's death in July 2022, Clemmie then went into the care of Beth's friend Jade, who was a drug addict. At Jade's house, Dawn found Clemmie sleeping in a dog bed and refused to leave her in Jade's care, so took the little girl back home to Woodbine Cottage.
Clemmie was taken away from Dawn and her husband Billy by social services and the couple moved heaven and earth to get custody of her. Clemmie is now in the care of Dawn and Billy and lives with them at Home Farm.
In a shocking twist, Dawn learned that Clemmie was actually her son Lucas Taylor's half-sister after her ex Alex had an affair with Beth.
Who is Clemmie's mum in Emmerdale?
Clemmie's mum is Beth Reed, who tragically died from a drug overdose. She has never been seen on-screen. Beth slept with her best friend Dawn's boyfriend, Alex Moore, which resulted in the birth of Clemmie in 2015.
Beth was a drug addict and wasn't in a position to raise Clemmie, so she went into the care of her grandmother. Following Beth's mum's death, Clemmie went back into Beth's care while social services monitored her.
Beth died of a drug overdose in 2022 and seven year old Clemmie was left with Beth's friend Jade. Clemmie was later discovered by Dawn living in abhorrent conditions at Jade's home and took her to live with her in Emmerdale.
Emmerdale airs weeknights at 7.30 pm on ITV, with a hour-long episode on Thursdays — see our TV Guide for full listings. You can also catch up on ITV Hub.
