EMMERDALE spoilers have revealed that Moira Barton and Ruby Fox-Milligan’s feud looks set to heat up.
Played by Beth Cordingly, Ruby was introduced to the ITV soap at the start of the year.
She was reunited with estranged husband Caleb (William Ash) and son Nicky (Lewis Cope).
Prior to Ruby’s arrival, Caleb had made the most of her absence to embark on an affair with Tracy Robinson (Amy Walsh).
Her stint so far has seen Ruby clash with the Dingle family and team-up with Kim Tate (Claire King) in a plot to force Caleb to leave the village with her.

In upcoming scenes, it appears that Ruby’s growing rivalry with Moira Barton (Natalie J. Robb) will develop further after they were left warring in the street and The Woolpack with one another.
The pair, who are married to brothers Cain Dingle and Caleb Milligan, have never really gotten along.
A previous scene saw Moira delight in getting one over on Ruby by splashing her with a puddle while driving.
Later, Ruby got her revenge by refusing to give way to Moira’s vehicle while they were both driving on a narrow road, causing a tense standoff.
Friday’s episode took their feud to another level.

It is an itchy skin condition caused by tiny mites burrowing into the skin.
Although Moira isn’t going down without a fight as spoilers indicate she has an explosive plan in place to get her revenge.
This storyline follows Moira’s clash with another character, Claudette Anderson (Flo Wilson) after Claudette’s transphobic abuse towards Moira’s son Matty (Ash Palmisciano).
Claudette had banned Matty and Amy (Natalie Ann Jamieson) from using the village hall for their wedding, having had a strained reaction to learning Matty was trans.
